"The lions of Islam have avenged our Prophet," Abu Mussab, who fights for IS insurgents in Syria, told Reuters via internet connection. "These are our lions. It's the first drops – more will follow," he said, speaking via an internet connection from Syria. He added that he and his fellow fighters are happy about the incident.
Mussab said he did not know the gunmen who carried out the attack, but added "they are on the path of the emir [IS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi]....and our Sheikh Osama (bin Laden)."
Reports suggest that the cartoons portraying Prophet Mohammed published earlier by the satirical paper were the reason for the attack. The gunmen reportedly called out the victims by name, shouting: “We have avenged the prophet."
The religion of peace at it again.

Vile Cartoons and caricatures are not journalism, are they?

No I don't believe they are. Freedom of speech must go hand in hand with responsibility surely.

Totally agree. I don't think it was only religion that the publication attacked, but to what purpose?

Awful pictures, but agree they shouldnt be killed for them. Having said that, they should probably have been expecting something like this to happen and had higher security.
The cartoons are not that unlike what you see drawn about politicians here in Australia, and probably around the world, but they were targeting a much more dangerous group.
