Today was the Paris March in which it is estimated three million people attended to honor the victims of Paris’ terrorist attacks. There was also a ceremony at the Grand Synagogue of Paris to honor the four Jewish victims who were targeted at a Kosher grocery stories. Leaders from all over the world attended the event. Well, expect for Obama, or any of his top regime officials. Lets take John Kerry for example. Would it have been too much to send Kerry to the Paris March ceremony to honor the victims of terror? John Kerry was already in Munich Germany yesterday and was headed for India today. Would it have even been a long flight or a big deal to make a symbolic stop in France to honor the victims of the Paris terrorist attacks?
