**HOTLINKING FIXED**
As everyone knows, the horrific Islamic-sponsored terrorist attack perpetrated against champions of the free press, the satire publishing company Charlie Hebdo, was the largest terrorist attack in France since World War 2, and there was no ambiguity to the attack. The murdered victims were cartoonists whom were very critical against Islam, and for that the Islamist turds sentenced them to death, and carried out their cowardly terrorist execution.
If you want to go right to the images, just scroll down. Otherwise, read on.
Obviously, what transpired was heinous. But what I find chlling is the capitulation by the media, mostly the mainstream but also including some conservative media, for NOT displaying the images or cartoons that triggered the murders. In my >50 years, I have never experienced such censorship in my life, even when I was in the military. In short, I don't sense the fear comes from the actual Islamic threat, it comes from the PROGRESSIVE PC crowd that has gone to lengths to put the blame of the murders on the anti-Islamist newspaper itself!
Now, I want to make absolutely clear: I do NOT like the subject matter of these cartoons. I do NOT endorse the blasphemy of religious icons, which includes Muslim icons. For instance, I am not in favor of museum displays of anti-Christian works (and have a legitimate, legal beef with US-taxpayer support of such exhibits). The work of Charlie Hebdo is not something in which I would routinely follow on my own or purchase, and certainly would not subsidize.
That said, the fact that we DO have freedom of association in a fair and just society. Part of that freedom of association is what we call freedom of the press, including freedom of religion, as well as the freedom to criticize said religions. And Charlie Hebdo is definitely on the cutting edge of such freedom, and paid the ultimate price for it.
Back to censorship: I can NOT understand why the media isn't plastering the work of Charlie Hebdo all over the airwaves and Internet. Obviously, there are publishing considerations and copyright issues; in short, ONLY authors have complete censorship and distribution authority. But that's not the reason the images aren't being published. Keep in mind that the same media plaster examples about other so-called controversial issues, particularly with Christian content, but I digress. The point is that ONLY the owners/creators of the images and the editorial content should have any say, beyond fair use for public domain news reporting.
My current site gopcongress.org is dormant undergoing changes for the GOP congressional primary, so I was looking for another source. Frank Solich has given me permission to host the images here, exclusively, on Conservative Cave. The images will be in both their original French composition as well as my English translation, and is in fact the ONLY English translation that I know that I can find through reasonable Google search. I am hosting nine such images here. Six of them are shown are displayed, while three of the images require clicking a link to show the image. The reason is these three images contain nudity. Other than that, there is NO intent to censor the images. NO pixelation of the "Prophet Mohammed" because of "sensibilities", and CERTAINLY no appeasement to the PC fetishes of the progressives.
One final note, directed at the Islamic terrorist scumbuckets: I am in Texas. I have a gun. My neighbors have guns. We all have guns. And we all know how to shoot. So you wanna make something of this, be my guest.
NOTE: I will remove (or have removed) any content that authorized representatives of Charlie Hebdo or any of the artists depicted here, if they so wish, and I will gladly and humbly honor thier request. But other than that, these images stay. The government, the media, and especially the Islamic fascists can all go pound sand for all I care. (Of course, Frank Solich has final approval over this post).
And away we go. The original image is on the left; my translation and alteration is on the right.j
Finally, three images that contain nudity. Keep in mind that showing Mohammed naked is considered one of the WORSE sins in Islam, and I've essentially given the green light for the Islamists to sentence me to death. I don't give a flying fitzpatrick about that (SEE: Texas, guns, et all above), but I DO care about our own morality:
