LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Quoting an Iranian diplomat, the Journal said that the Iranian cleric had written to Obama in recent weeks in response to a presidential letter sent in October.Obama's letter suggested the possibility of U.S.-Iranian cooperation in fighting Islamic State if a nuclear deal is reached, the Journal said, quoting the diplomat.

According to the diplomat, Khamenei's letter was said to be "respectful" but noncommittal. Both the White House and the Iranian mission at the United Nations have declined all comment."The letters of the American president have a history of some years, and in some instances, there have been responses to these letters," Ali Shamkhani, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, in November, said. Shamkhani added that there were "contradictions" between policies laid out in the letters and U.S. actions.

These Christian men were beheaded precisely because they were Christians. They can be seen calling on the true God and His Son Jesus Christ, as their evil executioners commit this act of savagery.These Christians are true martyrs. Unlike the evil, deluded Jihadists who commit acts of homicide against innocents in the name of their - god - and then claim to be martyrs.  One of the murderers declared - All crusaders: safety for you will be only wishes, especially if you are fighting us all together. Therefore we will fight you all together.The sea you have hidden Sheikh Osama bin Laden's body in, we swear to Allah we will mix it with your blood. We will conquer Rome, by Allah's permission.- I hope the President of the United States heard those words from Palm Springs, California, where he is on a golfing weekend

This is how La Creperie will finally look like – via LBCI

One of my favorite restaurants in Jounieh is set to reopen soon as renovation works are almost complete. La Crêperie is one of Lebanon’s most authentic and beautiful restaurants and has been serving great food since 1968. The restaurant is an 18th Century Picturesque Ottoman House that is owned and managed by the Khazen family and has welcomed several celebrities, presidents, ministers and diplomats.

I’ve been going to La Crêperie for the past 15 years and I have a lot of fond memories there. I enjoyed sitting on the small balcony tables and enjoying the splendid view and the food has always been excellent there. I loved their chicken and seafood platters, the raclette during winter and of course the famous crepes and my favorite the crepe maron.
