Suspected rebels from Nigeria's Islamist militant group Boko Haram attacked a Chinese plant in northern Cameroon near the town of Waza, a local governor told Reuters on Saturday.

Waza is 20 km (12 miles) from the Nigerian border close to the Sambisa forest, a stronghold of Boko Haram which has killed thousands in Nigeria in a five-year insurgency for an Islamist state and threatens to destabilize the wider region.

For this, they will pay. The Chinese are not interested in ‘playing nice’ with anyone who destroys their business interests, not even Marxist Muslim Moonbats. It’s only Obama who doesn’t quite know what to do when a third or forth world country kicks sand in a face.

That is my opinion, too.

Don’t attack the PRC. They don’t care about collateral damage or “international law.” They’ll just kill you (or have you killed).

They are not ‘rebels’, they are F’ning terrorists.

Looks like China is getting an opportunity to exercise its military might.

They have probably been itching for a chance to do so. Time will tell.

Well, that's probably going to be the end of Boko Haram.

They've attacked the wrong people.

Is anyone predicting that China does absolutely nothing in response?

But let's be clear about this. Boko Haram is a Presbyterian group...not muslim in any way.

This is straight from the WH.

Presbyterian I tell you...or maybe Methodist.

No, I don’t think Boko Haram is in any trouble.

Look at the map and notice the immense distance between China and Nigeria.

Does China have the experience of sending troops overseas and do they know the logistics required in maintaining a fighting force in Nigeria?

It is high time when the US gets a non-Islamic loving President that the US, Russia, China, and any other country that is sick and tired of seeing its citizens harassed and killed by Islamo-fascists to coordinate a war on them by name, and none of that “War on Terror” BS.
