It was with grief I learned that on Saturday, August 24, in the commune of Barsalogho, Burkina Faso, hundreds of people, including women and children, were killed and many others wounded in a terrorist attack. In condemning these heinous attacks against human life, I express my sympathy to the entire nation and my heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let the hostages be released; let the people in Gaza, where so many diseases, including polio, are also spreading. Let there be peace in the Holy Land. Let there be peace in Jerusalem!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
