“The four international airports in Nigeria are equipped with full-body scanners — the same technology that the United States and other countries are now scrambling to put into place following the attempted bombing of an American airliner on Christmas Day by a Nigerian terrorist.”

Interesting.

Was he scanned in Nigeria? Or did he pick up the bomb in Amsterdam?

Also, he payed cash for the ticket in Ghana.

Curiouser and Curiouser.

Thanks. I think that’s the main point, another not-so-fine mess from the most amateurish president ever.

Does nigeria owe the US taxpayer any money from loans since its inception? if so, pay up and leave us alone.

Before Ghana, Yemen (and who knows where else).

I hope somebody is working on this.

My brother in law and many others in my church are very involved in mission work in Nigeria. They have made tremendous inroads in spreading Christianity. Many of the people there hunger for the teachings of Christ and accept him as their Savior.

“tagging Nigeria as a terrorist state because of a single lunatic might not be in our best interest.”

Maybe that’s the point. Maybe the administration is now out to do us more harm by alienating our foreign economic interests in addition to destroying our infrastructure.

Nah, I think they view this as a distraction. I think they are focused like a laser beam on transforming the US into a socialist state.

Oh noes! Does this mean my endless flow of Nigerian spam will be cut off? How will I collect the $20 million due me when the Nigerian General who deposited diamonds and oil with his banker and then died in a plane crash from a heart attack while becoming a missionary with a buxom white daughter who needs money for her mother’s neurosurgery but needed a honest business friend in America?

Hopefully “severing ties” will include not accepting any foreign aid from the US too.

Nigeria is listed as a country to be watched over terror and Saudi Arabia isn’t?

“The international airport at Lagos is named Muhammad Murtala International Airport.”

At first glance, I thought it read Muhammad MURTHA airport. Thought, ‘Da_m! Those Murtha’s sure do get around.’

They still need someone to buy their oil if they want any foreign currency...

There are always buyers. China will gladly jump in to replace us.
