While it's commendable that we're helping with the situation, what about the three Colorado girls that are missing after signing up with ModelMayhem? Or the many other missing people in our own country?

Is CNN just reporting the Nigerian girls were kidnapped? While they are out roaming around maybe they can stop in Libya and pick up or shoot the killers that murdered our ambassador and 3 other people that our President promised to deliver.

Isn't this the government's basic job? To protect the rights of its citizens?

If they aren't doing that, what are they doing over there?
They are lining their pockets. Like nearly all African Governments, lol. What do you think where all that "Foreign Aid" goes?

A few things. I support the US military giving assistance 100%, this is a serious situation.
I'm disappointed but not surprised it was released to the media, better to just assist quietly.
And, once again I'm not shocked at the views of some posters here. Sickened, yes.
These are children. Grow up.

Tough one - if the Boko Haram a-holes learn that they're up for a much harder fight than they'd hoped, perhaps a few of them may decide that this isn't what they signed up for. What's the local term for "turning state's evidence"?

There's thousands of missing children in America. I don't see military troops searching for them.
