Iranians take part in a protest against the printing of satirical sketches of the Prophet Muhammad by French satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo on January 19, 2015 outside the French embassy in Tehran. The demonstration was in response to a cartoon published in the latest issue of Charlie Hebdo showing on its cover the prophet Mohammed holding a "Je Suis Charlie" (I am Charlie) sign under the headline "All is forgiven", a week after a January 7 attack at its Paris headquarters killed 12 people.
