Charlie Hebdo, cartoons of the earthquake in Italy: people buried as layers of lasagna – The Republic

PARIS – The satire of Charlie Hebdo does not spare even the earthquake victims: on the last issue of the newspaper satirical released on August 31, while in the countries of central Italy hit by the 24 August earthquake are still digging to recover people trapped under the rubble, was published a cartoon titled ‘Italian earthquake’. The image shows two bloodied and other persons buried in layers, as if they were the filling of the dough, with the words: ‘Penne with tomato sauce, penne gratin, lasagne’.

The sticker on the earthquake is published in the latest page of the current issue, which has a cover on ‘burkini’ cartoon. In the same last page, the theme of the disaster in Italy is dealt with in a bollard with a series of jokes: “Approximately 300 dead in an earthquake in Italy. Still do not know if the earthquake had shouted ‘Allah akbar’ before you shake.”

the indignation of the mayor Pirozzi. “But how do you make a cartoon about the dead! I’m sure this unsightly and embarrassing satire does not respond to the true sense of the French” it was the reaction of the amateur mayor, Sergio Pirozzi. “Ben is the irony, but on the misfortunes and the dead do not do satire – he added – we will show how the Italian people are a great people, I was in the emergency and it will be in the

We need an apology. “
