I didn't stick up for Hebdo's Islamophobia...
Après cette marche historique, que dis-je... Légendaire! Instant magique égal au Big Bang qui créa l'univers!...ou dans une moindre mesure (plus locale) comparable au couronnement de Vercingétorix, je rentre enfin chez moi. Sachez que ce soir, en ce qui me concerne, je me sens Charlie Coulibaly»
After this historical march, or should I say ... legendary! Magical instant comparable to the big-bang who created the universe!... or in a lesser way (more regional) similar to the crowning of Vercingétorix, I finally get back home. Please know that tonignt, IMO, I feel Charlie Coulibaly

Sure Sam, sure...
Because telling a Jew they should be put in a Gas Chambet isn't anti-Semitic is it?
Get real.

Of course, to suggest that the only religion Charlie Hebdo insulted is Islam is also false. I remember the thread where Pictures from Hebdo were posted here on ATS. Jews and Christians were insulted just as much by the magazine as Muslims were.
Hebdo was equal opportunity in its offensiveness.
Is the comic under discussion similarly equal opportunity or does he target just one religion and group? IMO opinion, that's the difference.
In 2009, the satirical weekly dismissed Maurice Sinet, a political cartoonist with Charlie Hebdo for 20 years, for his cartoons that allegedly ridiculed the relationship of former French President Nicolas Sarkozy’s son with a wealthy Jewish woman. In the column, the 80-year-old cartoonist commented on rumors that Sarkozy’s son, Jean, intended to convert from Catholicism to Judaism to marry the Jewish woman for financial reasons, saying, “He’ll go a long way in life, that little lad.” At the time, Charlie Hebdo’s editor, Philippe Val, found the piece offensive and asked Sinet to apologize, but the cartoonist strictly refused to do so.

Except one problem.
Charlie went after Christianity, not christians. it occasionally went after Judaism, but never Jews. However, Islam and Muslims are considered fair game. Do you see the difference here? "Hahaha, religion is stupid," is one thing. "Hahaha, gunning down Muslims because they're Muslims is funny" is a whole different thing.

Et pour que les choses soient tout aussi claires : du même élan, nous crachons à la gueule de tous ceux qui, ces derniers jours, ont donné une nouvelle popularité à cet article1, en faisant tourner largement le lien avec ce sous-entendu plus ou moins explicite : les morts de Charlie-Hebdo l’auraient bien cherché. Ce sont là gens qui nous dégoûtent – et ce n’est pas une image.

And so that things are obvious : in the same mood, we spit at the face of all those who, during the last days, gave a new popularity to this article, and forwarding the link with more or less explicit suggestions : the victims of Charlie Hebdo deserved it well. Those people are disgusting - and this is not an image.

You know why Sam...
He is an anti-Semite...
I didn't stick up for Hebdo's Islamophobia...
I won't stick up for this guy either...
And the fact that he is a friend of Jean-Marie Le Pen...
That's...
Just...

Charlie went after biggots of all tendencies, they happen to be more likelly to be found among certain religions than others.
