"Ah ! ça ira, ça ira, ça ira" - Israeli court allows distribution of Charlie Hebdo. (MEM).

The Israeli Supreme Court yesterday allowed Yisrael Beiteinu, headed by Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, to distribute the special issue of the French magazine Charlie Hebdo which contains a cartoon portraying Prophet Muhammad.

In a post on its account Facebook, Israel Beiteinu said: "The decision was taken after the opposition of the Arab parties."

Lieberman considered "the Supreme Court's decision to allow the distribution of the magazine Charlie Hebdo as an important message emphasising that Israel is a Jewish and democratic state which does not bow to threats and violence exercised by Arab Knesset members who are trying to change Israel to an ISIS State [Islamic State], we welcome the right decision taken by the Supreme Court."
