America 2015

In France, they had the largest public demonstration in their nation's history today.

In America, Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin had its highest ever attendance for a football game.




Parisians Unite Against Terror
An electrifying experience of the largest crowd ever to fill the streets of Paris, somewhere between 1.5 and 2 million. Public transportation was free during the day. Many world leaders were present, but they stayed in the shadow to not disturb the magnificent show of unity of Parisians against terror. MIA was a representative of the White House or US Congress!! It was duly noted, the US was represented by its Ambassador Jane Hartley.
