On Sunday, a perplexingly awesome mash-up of world leaders -- from French President Francois Hollande to Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu -- rallied in Paris to support the right to free expression. World leaders who often are at odds, and likely will be bickering by week's end, marched arm-in-arm with the public in solidarity with Charlie Hebdo, the French satirical magazine that was the site of an unconscionable terror attack last week. The magazine, of course, was k**wn for publishing potentially offensive caricatures of religious figures, including the Prophet Mohammed. The attackers are believed to have been motivated by radical Islam. For **w, the world is taking a stand for free speech. Proclaiming the pen mightier than the sword. The magazine Charlie Hebdo plans to print 1 million copies of its next issue on Wednesday. It will do so with the help of French publications and a Google fund.
