AND MORE TERROR – AT 11:52 A.M.  This time in the west African nation of Burkina Faso.  But remember, it has nothing to do with the teachings of any group.  From CNN:

(CNN) Attackers raided a luxury hotel in Burkina Faso overnight, opening fire and seizing hostages in an hours-long siege that ended with at least 23 people dead.

An al Qaeda-linked terrorist group claimed responsibility for the assault at Splendid Hotel -- a popular meeting place for Western diplomats in the capital, Ouagadougou.

The attack began Friday night and dragged on under the cover of darkness. Security forces circled the perimeter to assess the situation before they stormed in hours later.

"Everyone was panicked and was lying down on the floor. There was blood everywhere, they were shooting at people at point blank," said Yannick Sawadogo, who survived the siege.

Security forces entered the hotel early Saturday and freed 126 hostages, half of whom were hospitalized, said Alpha Barry, the nation's foreign minister.

The 23 people killed were of 18 nationalities, according to security minister Simon Compaore.

At least four attackers were killed, including two women, he said. It was unclear whether their deaths were included in the figure of 23 people killed.

The French Foreign Ministry, whose troops helped in the rescue operation, said 27 people died.

COMMENT:  Have you noticed how relentless terror has been recently?  One attack after another, in many different countries.  A number of intelligence experts, especially in France, are warning of a bad 2016.

And we will have Obama "leading" us for another year.
