...didn't that French newspaper then much later end up getting shot up?

I think it's the same but I'm not sure. The shooting was like 40 years later though so not relevant to the mohammed orgy images.

It was shot up by people who were mad that the journal was regularly doing drawings like that.

Yes but that was 30-40 years later.

It's not that specific drawing, it's that they still make drawings like it regularly.

Well yes, but nobody cated for 30 years so they didn't do it during that time. Or not at all as provocatively.
