Will Obama comment on the India attacks?
This is a tricky situation for him. Many expect him to address this but this is clearly a one-prez-at-a-time moment. But he does need to say something. This is a significant event especially hearing they were targeting Americans.

1. There was something on CNN from the Obama camp. Didn't catch it, mute is on.

2. He has.
He condemed the attacks, but I just caught the text on the scroll.

He's probably waiting to see what additional information comes out, before saying that we are all Indians now.

7. A link to the statement was posted below...
He did say that we stand with the people of India.....but still, that's not quite the same as saying we are all Indians now.
