Boko Haram Attack in Nigeria - 2000 Dead

Meanwhile, the biggest response Obama sees to counter Boko Haram is a useless Twitter campaign.

Blaming Obama only took until this seventh post. Who could have guessed?

Let's hope the GOP can start a few new wars, now that they control both chambers. Off the books of course, in conjunction with phony CBO 'dynamic scoring' of tax cuts to their rich fat cat donors .
 
Why not blame Obama and Libbos, as far rightist extreme GOP Senators like Graham and McConnell are already doing with the French massacre ?
Who was it who wanted to 'End the war in Iraq"? Who gave the dates for the retreat from Afghanistan? Who wanted to close Gitmo and release terrorists? Who complained more of the US Military than they ever did of the terrorists? Who has complained of enhanced interrogation against terrorists in order to get more information from them?

Certainly it has been the left who has been responsible for the rise of terrorism throughout the world. Who the hell else? But they will never man up.
 
Are you sure it isn't Bush's fault?

abubakr shekau (leader of boko haram) has a habit of bringing up Bush in his crazy talks. I'd say there's a pretty solid case here that Boko Haram wouldn't be slaughtering innocents if it weren't for the fact that they were upset because EVILGEORGEBUSH LIEDABOUTIRAQ.
 
murder itself is an act of madness.

Boko harem is soley responsible for the deaths of 2000 people.
So the fact that they are Islamic means nothing? Did you know that Boko Haram means 'Western education is forbidden' and it's official name is "People Committed to the Prophet's Teachings for Propagation and Jihad"? You must know that young girls are abused in many Islamic countries and denied an education? That honor killings are widespread throughout the world? Is none of this connected to Islam?

Yet, like a true leftist, you ignore the obvious and try to avoid and skirt the truth. This is something you might want to think about.

and what would you have me do? condemn all of the estimated 1.5 followers of the islamic faith as my enemy?

Grant, my ultamitulm is this: I will not give into the hatred for islam.

Boko Harem's motives and beliefs mean nothing to me, those are irrelevant to my opposition to them. I opose them because abuse their fellow human beings.

Why the guessing game here? My questions were straightforward and needed only an honest response, but that was not forthcoming. Instead you now respond with the idea that you need condemn 1.5 million people. That's not necessary.

Who says you have to "hate" islam??? But, even if that were an option, does your unwillingness to "Hate" Islam mean you must also deny the reality? Or refrain from criticism? What makes Islam so special?

There is every reason to understand why anyone's beliefs can also help explain their behavior. We all do it in our lives every day. We expect certain things from certain types of people. We use our judgement through our experience regularly and can usually take some information or knowledge from their expressed beliefs. All we need do is watch a political campaign and notice how they want us to believe them. We can then decide if we do or not. Boko Haram differs from Paris only in its magnitude, but of course ISIS is also doing the same thing in Iraq.

I opose them because abuse their fellow human beings.
But i put in a few links to demonstrate just a few of the problems in Islam. That does not mean we "Hate" Islam or "Hate" its practitioners but we should certainly speak out against the atrocities which are doing harm to the world, and to a great number of Muslims themselves.

How will Islam change if we don't confront these abuses? How can people of every religion, or even those with no religion, live together if we accept or condone bad behavior against other human beings? This is a serious thing and remaining silent on these issues is not a good thing for anyone. We need more people to speak out against this crap and not pretend we don't understand its source.

i do not know what answer will satisfy you grant because i don't know what you are expecting me to say.

Islam has its flaws as a religion.

I want to believe that it is possible to have a dialogue with muslims, to come to an understanding.

the followers Boko Harem, Al Qeada, and ISIS are fanatics who interpret islamic teachings in order to justify their acts of violence and slaughter.

It's a good thing we didn't take that attitide during WW2. I mean, there were probably good Facists, too.

An understanding? What understanding would that be?

Hell, I thought that's what I was doing. LOL!

And terrific Nazis who were friends with all their neighbors. But eventually they didn't matter, just as 'moderate' Muslims don't really matter either

Yes, Islam does have its flaws and it's those 'flaws' which are troubling to much of the world and which should be discussed.
 
Nigeria's militant Islamists have carried out a second attack on the key north-eastern town of Baga, an official has told the BBC.Boko Haram fighters burnt down almost the entire town on Wednesday, after over-running a military base on Saturday, Musa Alhaji Bukar said.Bodies lay strewn on Baga's streets, amid fears that some 2,000 people had been killed in the raids, he added.

Boko Haram launched a military campaign in 2009 to create an Islamic state.It has taken control of many towns and villages in north-eastern Nigeria in the last year.The conflict has displaced at least 1.5 million people, while more than 2,000 were killed last year.

Those 2.ooo can no longer "Je suis Charlie" nor join the crowds in Paris to protest the killing of the dozen Europeans.

Sixteen Frenchmen is a tragedy, 2,000 Africans is a statistic. We shake our heads, wonder for a moment at the inhuman fanaticism of Islamic terrorists, and just move on.
 
Only if the GOP gets credit, which their messaging machine is now getting about .

HA... did you see Mitch McTurtle taking credit for the economic gains by saying it was because of the peoples' mere expectation of the GOP taking over the Senate?

Sen. Mitch McConnell says GOP deserves credit for economic uptick

The Party of "NO!" is now wanting credit for having done something... which they were previously so proud of doing absolutely nothing since 2008.
 
As far as I know, these islamo-nazi terrorists want us all to convert or die, and I think they've showed that they are 99% with the die part, no?

As for your boy, you are right about him eating dog, snd having Kenyan roots. I don't know if he grew up a muslim or not, and he seems to be much closer to communism than capitalism. So I guess you are half right there.

lol @ islamo-nazi's... as if the Nazi party would have anything to to with Muslims at all.

Only to be outdone by their low-info voters believing they helped give us 600,000 jobs in the last two months of the year.
And the greatest number of jobs since 1999.

But we have pre-candidate Mitt Romney on tape praising the 2nd and 3rd quarter GDPs, without giving credit to the GOP.

I'm currently watching the GOP trick of 'dynamic scoring' by the CBO flying under the radar.
This is counting revenues years in advance for tax cuts to the rich now--voodoo economics .

Yeah... I've been following this news. They are trying to use it in the typical conservative fashion of trying to "starve the beast" again. Their way to attempt to kill social programs like Social Security and Medicare.
 
The white muslims... I see. lol

Yeah... your point is waaaayyyyy beyond BS. Thanks for the laughs though.

Historically he is correct. Nazi Germany did indeed have strong influence in the Arab world at that time.
 
The white muslims... I see. :lamo

Oh, now it's white Muslims? :lamo
