Boko Haram has, like other Islamic terrorist groups adapted to their growing problems recruiting suicide bombers by using more coerced or unknowing bombers. Thus by the end of 2016 most of the suicide bombers were women (often teenagers) and children (some as young as ten).
...
Boko Haram has used at least 117 children (80 percent female) as suicide bombers since 2014 and that sort of thing is increasing in 2017. For the first three months of 2017 Boko Haram used 27 children suicide bombers compared to 30 for all of 2016. Attacks using female suicide bombers tended to use kidnapped girls convinced or coerced to make such attacks. Sometimes young girls (under 10 years old) are used, usually to wear bomb vests that can be detonated remotely. These bombers often do not know they are wearing explosives.
These people are a terrible plague on humanity.
I know we shouldn't be the world's policemen, but when you hear about stuff like this - it pulls at you to want to do something.

Not to me it doesn't. If we're not willing to help our IMMEDIATE neighbor to our south rid them of the scorge of the cartels, why do we need to go to Nigeria? Why is it Americans want to do everything in the world, except clean up our own backyard?

Wipe them out. Exterminate them. The weaponising of women and children should be not only condemned but punishable by slow and painful death.
Who'd have thought tactics used by NVA and VC would still be implemented today...

All I am saying is that this terrible, and it pulls at me to want to do something.
I am not advocating that we do anything. We don't have the money to do anything.

I understand. I am not saying we should commit anything.
