Actress Lindsay Lohan met Friday with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan inside the country’s presidential palace, and also met with Bana al-Abed, the 7-year-old social media star who made headlines last year after tweeting about her life in war-torn East Aleppo. In a short Periscope video, the 30-year-old actress and al-Abed offered a brief message of hope for refugees who have fled the violence in Syria.
“We want to send to all of the people in Syria and Aleppo suffering, and to all the refugees, we are here supporting you and you can hang on and be strong, just like Bana has,” Lohan says in the video.
Lohan added, “Inshallah,” which means “if God wills” in Arabic.
Lohan also posed for a photograph with Erdogan, his wife Emine and al-Abed inside the palace. She later posted the photograph to her Instagram account.
The Mean Girls star has spent less time acting and more time advocating on behalf of displaced Syrian refugees over much of the past year.
In September, the actress reportedly visited with refugees in an Istanbul hospital and brought gifts to a family from war-torn Aleppo. The following month, Lohan teamed up with German energy drink maker Mintanine to provide free energy drinks to some refugee camps.
Meanwhile, a spokesperson for the “Lohan” nightclub in Greece told the UK’s Express last year that the actress would donate the proceeds from her involvement in the club to refugee causes.
Earlier this month, Lohan published a poem about what she described as her plan to help fix “idle ISIS minds.”
Al-Abed penned an open letter to President Donald Trump this week, asking him to allow Syrian refugees into the United States.

Where’s her burka?
ho she think she is, Jane Fonda?
ISIS can have her
You know that must mean the world to those refugees, eh?
Why are her arms not covered?
She converted right?
She’s got a big fan club in Turkey, does she? Once these “has been” celebrities get old they all become old activists out to “save da whirl”. What a crock.
They are refugees, and half million of their fellow citizens are dead, because the Turks, Saudis, and the obamists decided to overthrow their president. I'm sure it was worth it, though.
And then she told them about her lesbian past, right before they threw her off the roof.
Publius911 : Inshallah, Turkey can choose to keep Lindsay Lohan. Her blazing intellect and other skills can be quite serviceable to the muslim army...
Is she going to get her clitorectomy while she is there?
Christian refugees that DON’T hate we Jews?
WELCOME TO AMERICA!
The REST of you...not so fast!
Druggie to Muzzie?
I don’t know but her cherry has been pushed so far back she can use it as a tail light
Must say, “bringer of light” is not an attribute anyone is likely to associate with Lindsay Lohan
“Lohan” is old high Gaelic for “brains of a hamster”.

Oh great, ‘celebrity’ foreign policy. Just what we need.
