Oh, Zero and the Wookie care. They are probably preparing to unleash new hashtags and then take some sad-faced selfies.

1. Pray for Nigeria
2. I'm coming more to believe that Boko Haram has a few trained Marxists giving them counsel:
"...the insurrection career once entered upon, act with greatest determination, and on the offensive. The defensive is the death of every armed uprising."
--Karl Marx, 1917, in Lenin, "Can the Bolsheviks Retain State Power? Postscript"

3. BH will only grow with eventual forced conscripts. As Douglas MacArthur remarked to his staff in 1945 re: the Philippine guerrilla group, the Huks:
"They tell me the Huks are socialistic, that they are revolutionaries, but I haven't got the heart to go after them. If I worked in those sugar fields, I'd probably be a Huk myself."

Hence, has been easier for many BH recruits to join with these murdering land pirates than either work their equivalency of a "sugar field" -- or worse, to face the violence of BH's marauders.

Anyway, MacArthur's comment helps to explain why there is no "Old West" type of posse attitude amongts the locals: "I haven't got the heart to go after them."

Wookie might send a few school lunches so they can maintain their strength. ☺

It’s just a Christian ghetto in a far-away country. What difference does it make? /s

In better times we would have airdropped guns and ammo to the prospective victims so that they could defend themselves. But that would upset the anti-gun sensitivities of our dear leaders.
