WOW- on national TV a desk reporter is asking for a minute of silence for those who gave their lives for us...then he bowed his head.

Would that EVER happen here?

Nope! I still remember when President Bush asked for a moment of silence right after 9-11, and he began to tear up.

The left , to this day, mock him about it.

It would not happen here because the fully-secular media sees all religions as the same—no differentiation at all. To them, it is “religion” that causes these type of situations.

Then, he said the people are crying "enough is enought", yet, he goes on to say that even the two pm's could not come to gether to engage in the fight against terrorism. [Sort of sounds like the US Washington politicians.]

FABER, Virginia - A foundation in Virginia says a man and his teenage daughter who were members of the group died in the terrorist attacks in India.

A spokeswoman with the Synchronicity Foundation said Friday that Alan Scherr and his 13-year-old daughter, Naomi, were killed while they were in a cafe in Mumbai.

Bobbie Garvey says the 58-year-old father and his daughter were identified by colleagues. The two lived at the central Virginia foundation, which promotes meditation.

Garvey said Scherr is a Maryland native and a former college professor.

Garvey said four other members of a 25-member delegation from Synchronicity were injured and are recovering. - AP
