Why didn't the bloody bastards publish a cartoon of their slain colleagues?

Spot on!

Underground, Where do we draw the line between free speech and inappropriate and offensive speeches? . It is a grey area with valid arguments on both sides.

I know it is but common, mocking the death of people from a potential terror attack? Common!

charix:
Finally, you finding something you stumbled upon online offensive means you're spending too much time on the internet - a lot of people do things online and spend a lot of time refining them with the sole aim of annoying others.

Honestly you are cracking me up! You haven't, I presume, stumbled on anything on the Internet that you find offensive hence by your definition, you aren't spending too much time on the Internet right?
Or perhaps you have, so meaning you are indeed spending too much time in the Internet?
This theory of yours really is amusing to me. We could be unto something earth shattering here you know?

I think your s.illy & absurd theory needs to be tossed in the bin of du.mbsh*t things people that are trying to sound knowledgable and deep say.

What do you think?

charix:
Charlie Hebdo mocks everything. If you're the type to get displeased viewing their art then you're also the type to believe everything you read online.

The world is not that serious, you'd save a few headaches going offline and making real friends.

Hmmm... Whilst I dont quite get your drift, I believe you are saying it's ok to joke about everything - nothing is beyond limits - as its all in the spirit of satire?

Second, how does one finding such "work" offensive translate to "believing everything you read online" and "making real friends" since you believe I have none?

Hmmmm...

These are the cartoons and they read:

1. Daesh: Russian aviation intensifies it bombardments

2. The dangers of low-cost Russian. I should have taken Air Cocaine

Let me drop a few Russian lies here before i move on

Russia propaganda 101

Lol, nice one

I said it, these Charlie Hebdo guys are no good. Utterly despicable and sad.

Below is a post I made several months back when they mocked those Africans drowning in the Mediterranean.

Underground:
There has got to be a point where you draw the line between satire and disrespect for other people's culture and beliefs. As far as I am concerned this Charlie Hebdo guys have gone way too far. They have been reckless and insensitive with the garbage they have been churning out, shoved down our throats as satire. Below is what they posted just a few days before the Charlie Hebdo attacks.

They had it coming.

Above is a caricature which one of the folks who got murdered had just posted. The text reads: "Still no terrorist attacks in France - Wait, we have until the end of January to send you are best wishes". The crazy person shown in the drawing is packing a Kalashnikov and wearing an Afghan "Pakol" - the typical "crazy Muslim" in Charlie Hebdo's world

A Sick Joke? Charlie Hebdo Mocks Russian Plane Crash in Egypt


French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo published two cartoons about the Russian passenger plane crash in Egypt. A Russian parliamentarian has called the cartoons an insult to the memory of the victims to Russia’s deadliest air accident in history, which took the lives of 224 people.

On Thursday, the magazine published two cartoons and a joke about the air crash over the Sinai Peninsula.

One of the pictures shows a jihadist of the Islamic State (IS) militant group and plane’s debris falling around him. The caption says “IS: Russian Aviation intensifies its bombing campaign.”

On the second drawing, a skull in sunglasses, lying on the ground amid the parts of the bodies and the plane’s debris, speaks about the dangers of flying with the Russian airline. The caption says: “The dangers of a Russian budget airline. I should have taken Air Cocaine.”

The cartoon apparently refers to what is known in France as the “Air Cocaine” affair, an incident with two Frenchmen accused of flying somewhat 680 kilos of cocaine from the Dominican Republic into France.

The cartoons have already been called blasphemy and insult to the memory of the victims of the horrible tragedy.

“I think it is blasphemy and a mockery of the memories of the victims of the tragedy. No mass media outlet should be allowed to do this, no matter which genre they specialize in,” said Igor Morozov, Russian parliamentarian and member of the Russian parliamentary Committee on Foreign Affairs.

"Laughing at the catastrophe that occurred in Sinai is unacceptable. Trying to be original, Charlie Hebdo just uses shock tactics. It forces one to recall the tragedy that occurred in January 2015. I think the journalists themselves provoke violence," said the member of the politician.

Charlie Hebdo is known for publishing controversial caricatures. On January 7, the Paris office of the magazine was attacked by Islamist gunmen who killed 12 people and wounded 11 after Charlie Hebdo published cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova also commented on the cartoons on her page in Facebook with one single question: "Is anyone still 'Charlie?'"

The comment refers to the slogan 'JeSuisCharlie' (I am Charlie) and hashtag campaign that grew spontaneously after the attack in January. It was used to show empathy with those killed in the attack.

Earlier in September Maria commented on another cartoon of Charlie Hebdo on the death of a Syrian child.

"You know why I am not JeSuisCharlie?” she then wrote. “Because, to my mind, they deceive both us and themselves by affirming that there are no forbidden topics for their humor. If it were really so, then we could understand a cartoon of a dead Syrian child (not accept, but only understand)."

"But only under one condition – if the next day after the attack they would have published a cartoon of their dead colleagues."

ValerianSteel:
.....Even if it's an attack by ISIS,serves Russia right.

MOR0N! Terror supporter. We should lock your @$$ up like your American buddies do in Guatanamo bay for sympathizing with terrorists and ram food down your throat like they do over there. Water board your @$$ & deny u sleep.


MOR0N!

ValerianSteel:
You are as daft as you type.

If Russia is innocent,why then did she veto a resolution for an indictment tribunal into MH17.

Why is Russia refusing to hand over evidence to the investigators.

You probably are a robot implanted with brain corrupting chip.

Probably am a mor0n for thinking a demented fellow like you has the intellectual capacity to see reason.

You are a m0ron absolutely no doubt. Well I don't expect you to know how a tribunal works. And why it was even suggested in light of an Incomplete investigation.

What evidence did Russia withhold? What exactly? You are as mor0nic as they come!

MOR0N!

ValerianSteel:
Lol,dude the one that calls MH17 a false flag.Don't make a mockery of innocent souls that were taken abruptly.

You made a mockery of lost souls with this recent crash, not me.

ValerianSteel:
A simple google search of Russia and MH17 would point fingers at the defaulter here.We could make this thread a long epistle of MH17 but the whole world knows who did what,let's not play that game.

You are indeed a m0ron. (Yes, I have used "cheap" insults again cos a person that rejoices in the death of innocent people as punishment for the yet to be confirmed crimes of another party, deserves to be addressed as such).
Telling me google and Google will tell me who the culprit is. Is the investigation complete? Has there been an indictment? Anything at all?
I can't believe the n0nsense you see on here on Nairaland!

ValerianSteel:
Insult is cheap Underground,be civil and logical.

Still a m0ron. And I'm being civil

ValerianSteel:
Dude,what goes around comes around.I feel sorry that innocent souls died,I also felt deeply sad that Russia shot down a plane with innocent souls as well.

The painful part wouldn't allow a fair investigation into the crash.

The world couldn't serve justice by nailing Russia but karma did.No act of wickedness goes unanswered.

While I don't take joy in their deaths truly but this shows that no act of wickedness ever goes unanswered.

I suggest you go and research on MH17 properly and look into that thread within NAIRALAND that documents and updates the happenings on MH17. Russia hasn't blocked any investigation. There is no evidence that Russia is responsible. Just where and how have you arrived at this disingenuous conclusion?

Like I said before, you are a complete m0ron. No amount of backtracking with your hurtful words changes that

ValerianSteel:
ISIS doesn't possess the type of SAM that can take down the plane at the altitude it was flying.They are in possession of man portable air defense system(MANPAD) which again couldn't have taken it down.

Even if it's an attack by ISIS,serves Russia right.Now they feel the pain the Dutch felt when they shot down MH17.The flight was fully Russian board except for the three Ukrainians on board.

In all May their souls be remembered in good.

You say the crash of an airline that had innocent people (ordinary people that could have easily been you or I) serves the Russians right because you think the Russians are responsible for the shooting down of another plane although there isn't an iota of evidence to prove so, and then in the same vicious breath, hope that their souls be remembered for good. Lol!

You, sir, are a complete m0ron!

Lordave:
Hope Putinians don't blame us for this crash, if they do, we will crash more planes!

RIP

You are a complete id.iot. and a soulless, bra.in.washed vermin. How can any normal person utter such wicked, insensitive words? Get outta here you exceptional mo.ron!

I sincerely hope this isn't an attack from ISIS

CFCfan:
Secretary Clinton will make Obama look like a dove. Lol

Anyway, I foresee the election being "too close to call" (aka rigged) with Clinton beating Rubio by 2% points in the popular vote, and a slim margin in the EC vote. It will be the closest presidential election since 2000.

You know, the globalists do need one of their puppets to win by a landslide.
"Close" elections ensure that people continue with the delusion that their vote matters.

True. Just like the "abracadabra" that happened back in 2000. I have looked at all the candidates. I don't expect any major shift in foreign policy only that a neo-con such as Clinton would pursue wars and interventions more aggressively than any other

Can't confirm the truth in the second meme though

And now back to our regular scheduled programming:

I don't see any participation from folks o! Again either pro-American or pro-Russian memes or cartoons are welcome.

I'll help the pro-American camp with some cartoons; though disingenuous.

I may have shared these before. Comical but appropriate I think for this thread. Lol!

Still funny. Never gets old

overhypedsteve:
Lol. Where do I make donations to the continuity of this thread? Love it.

Well, I guess you can add your own memes. Remember: pro-Western or pro-Russian

More

"We will not tolerate this blatant act of aggression and violation of international law!"

I got so much of these memes of which I'll share more soon
