To be honest in the grand scheme of things most people couldn't give a monkeys about this story...

In fact if a Nuke accidentally wiped out most of Nigeria it would probably only just make the papers...!!!!

Just heard on the news that another 8 girls have been kidnapped.

Obama is sending a hostage team over.

[Livia]

I saw the leader of the terrorists on telly ranting about how Allah wanted him to kidnap the girls. Jeez... what a loon. There's no negotiating with people like that.

Not all of Africa is like that, Africa is a continent of many countries.

And if that wasn't bad enough, many countries in Africa are run by despots who rob their own treasury while their people suffer, live in poverty, even starve. It's a cesspit. There are exceptions... but not that many.

Can anyone explain how the kidnapping of over 230 young girls for the purposes of selling into slavery has anything to do with an Islamic religious struggle ?

Boko Haram ( "Western education is sinful") is an Islamic group and takfiri militant and terrorist organization based in the northeast of Nigeria, north Cameroon and Niger. Founded by Mohammed Yusuf in 2002,[11] the organisation seeks to establish a "pure" Islamic state ruled by sharia law, putting a stop to what it deems "Westernization".[from wiki]


I would imagine they all eat at Pizza Express...

Sure
for the ones they have not sold already
but is it America's Civil War


Or Nigeria's Civil War


Also Forced/stolen girls are sold all over Africa
is that a USA problem

[arista]

Ch4News report
said its what Boko Haram
wanted on worldwide news.

The President of Nigeria gets the Oil money
but can not get the girls back
so much corruption

Civil War now

Insurgency is Terrorism

just so anyone watching BBC knows

[Nedusa]

This terror group has taken terrorism to new levels with tens of thousands killed in one atrocity after another.

Usually Non Muslims (Men,Women & Children) are targetted.

This is just out an out murder and evilness taken onto a grand scale dressed up as religious struggle.

The World powers now are taking notice of this group and I would expect to see the next front on the War on terror to be fought in northern Nigeria.

In fact I would not be surprised if we saw a series of "purges" committed by the Nigerian security services where whole families/groups/villages just disappeared a bit like what happened in Chile in the seventies.

Intelligence sources believe they know
where some of the schoolgirls kidnapped
in Nigeria are, Sky News understands.
The sources believe they have been split
into at least four different groups,
complicating the search to find
the girls almost four weeks after
they were taken by militants from Boko Haram.
British and American officials are using
advanced eavesdropping equipment to
scan the Sembisa forest where the
schoolgirls are thought to be, Sky News understands.
Sky's Special Correspondent Alex Crawford,
who is in the Nigerian capital, Abuja, said if
the intelligence is true it would be "much more
difficult to mount simultaneous raids" to rescue them.
"The whole thing is fraught with danger," she added.]


I wonder if the Girls will be wired to bombs?

Michelle Obama made a speech about this and said she and Barack have prayed for the safe return.

So she hopes her god listens and somehow magically does this. She sees no irony in the fact that if he can magically intervene then why the feck did he let it happen in the first place?

Whatever you think of her religious beliefs, it's good to see someone so high-profile taking the opportunity to use their fame to highlight this awful story.

Yes how come she was not warned before they were taken
everyone else got warnings.

Ch4 News Live out there
just said 18 of the girls are very ill and need to come back first
thats what the deal is?
But what does that Group of terrorists get?

No one knows?

[Nedusa]

Apparently a fair number of this terrorist group are also members of the Nigerian armed forces.
