Obama made a big deal about this making a big show if you recall.
The entire World/UN came made a big deal about this, it was all huff. We see what happens when violence is met with weakness.
Quick! Somebody hashtag ‘em!!
Do ANY of the Nigerians have locks on their doors?
Do ANY of the Nigerians have a local police department?
Do ANY of the Nigerians have ...a gun of their own?
Perhaps not. You would think their neighbors in Ghana and Chad could offer some sort of defense help, but maybe everybody is largely poor there. I just read that Libya is considered to be “The Switzerland of the African Continent”.
Saudi Arabia is connected to Libya, but does not seem inclined to help other regions. Why must America always try financially rescuing these areas? Because if we don’t, China or Russia will.
Look for a big hashtag campaign. Michelle Obama will start it and get lots of sympathy from the sycophant media.

Cameroon should ask the French for some help, they’re quite experienced at dealing with this kind.
