Our leaders embarrass America again. More than 40 heads of state came together in Paris to denounce a wave of terrorism that defiled the City of Light last week — yet there was one glaring exception: The U.S. sent only a low-level official. French President Francois Hollande, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, British Prime Minister David Cameron and dozens of other world leaders all took part in the powerful denunciation of last week’s terror attacks that left 17 innocents dead. Even Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas set aside their differences to march together on Boulevard Voltaire. THE NEWS SAYS: Obama, U.S. pols skipping Paris rally is a shameful failure. But the nation that stands as the symbolic face of the war on terror was nowhere in sight. nydailynews/news/politics/eric-holder-u-s-dignitaries-no-shows-paris-unity-rally-article-1.2073821
