Berri Condemns Burkina Faso Attack, Calls for 'Global War' against Terrorism

You don't see Berri condemn terror attacks in Pakistan or Afghanistan....hmmmm.

You want 'global war on terrorism'? How about start at home where the most notorious terror group has made lebanon its headquarters.

Sad when Lebanese need to go to Burkina Faso to find "decent life."
