There is dread, but in the face of this dread, there is a nation that knows how to defend itself, that knows how to mobilize its forces. And, once again, will defeat the terrorists.

— French President Francois Hollande, on the terror attacks committed on November 13, 2015.

Today I am a writer without words. I am shocked and dismayed over the events that took place in Paris yesterday. I pray for the victims and their families and all French citizens. I commend French President Francois Hollande and his ministers for taking decisive action. He has shown himself to be a true leader of his people. May he continue to be the leader his country so desperately needs in this horrific hour.

 

Au revoir.
