So here i share global Prayers....
WASHINGTON – “Prayers for Paris.”
That was the simple but heartrending message posted on Facebook by Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, as bloody jihadist attacks in at least six locations were still underway in the capital of France on Friday evening. In the hours that followed, more than 150 people would be reported dead and scores more seriously injured.
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, posted, “Horrific reports coming out of Paris. Our thoughts and prayers are with all the people of France — our oldest ally.”
Donald Trump tweeted, “My prayers are with the victims and hostages in the horrible Paris attacks. May God be with you all.”
“My thoughts and prayers are with the people in Paris tonight,” tweeted Dr. Ben Carson.
“This is an attack not just on Paris, it’s an attack not just on the people of France, but this is an attack on all of humanity and the universal values that we share,” said President Obama, who also offered his prayers.
The president called it “a “heartbreaking situation,” and “an outrageous attempt to terrorize innocent civilians.”
Speaking briefly to reporters in the White House just before 6 p.m. EST, Obama stated, “We stand prepared and ready to provide whatever assistance that the government and people of France need to respond.”
Obama said he would not speculate about the rapidly developing situation and did not take questions.
The president said the administration has been in touch with French officials but he had not yet called President Francois Hollande, “because my expectation is that he’s very busy at the moment.”
“At this moment, unprecedented terrorist attacks are underway across the city of Paris,” said Hollande.
He declared a state of emergency, closed the nation’s borders and dispatched the military to Paris.
Hollande also imposed the first curfew in the French capital since 1944, during the Nazi occupation in World War II.
