Fresh meat.

When a country degenerates into predatory factions, it’s very hard to clean it up and find stability again.

Those trying to fracture our society should learn that lesson.

These girls,like the ones of a couple of years ago,are surely Christian girls.

Didn’t Nigeria just go through this sort of mass kidnapping about three years ago? Still not enough trained/ armed militia to stop another incident? Makes me wonder if some officers or heads of state are complicit, and paid to look the other way.

Genetically we are not significantly different than our ancestors who fed people to lions, raped and pillaged villages, and practiced genocide. They only thing that separates us from them is what we’ve learned and how much we’ve progressed spiritually. Apparently, for too many in the world, there is a long, long way to go in both categories.

Nigeria is fairly large, and its government and resources are small.

If the civilized world really cared about this, any Western military could utterly wipe out Boko Haram in a few weeks.

Nature, Mr. Alnut, is what we’re put in this world to rise above.

The root cause as always is Islam. You get rid of Islam in Africa, and the continent would be somewhat respectable.

I though her strongly worded (well strongly intended - don’t want to wee wee anyone off now) tweet took care of this problem forever.

Boko Haram: Haram is Arabic for forbidden; boko means fake. Therefore, the fake is forbidden. By 'the fake', they mean western education. Thus, Boko Haram --> western education is forbidden.

It's good to keep in mind.

They elected a Muslim to put down a Muslim rebellion. Skeptical.

Couldn’t some of our citizens, who are so unhappy here, go over there and straighten this country out to a new utopia?

Lots of mohammadens in office in the north so it's likely.

Gun laws look like they don't allow law abiding citizens any means of protection.

Only police and military have firearms it seems...oh, and terrorists of course.
