School Children Massacred
 
It's getting worse in Nigeria. Unfortunate that a teacher appears to have been a Muslim yet presumably killed by Islamic terrorists.:huh:

Cannot imagine what kind of creature would think it was perfectly acceptable to God and man to shoot a 10 y.o. in the back and a 12 y.o. in the chest....

Calling Obama ; how about some Drones + Hellfires for Boko Haram.

Some of the children were burnt alive; burning to death has got to rank as about the most tortured way to die.

Surely that must rank in the top 5 Reasons to Intervene in a country's civil war.

Especially if said country has shedloads of oil.....

Better weapons and sealed borders? It's just too much of a difficulty, as whatever happens, one side or more will take offence, usually resulting in civil war or inept military rule, or given Nigerian history, both.

Europe will do it's common trick of being rather worthy and upstanding, whilst doing as little as possible. After all, isn't that what Oxfam was set up for? Leave it to them to deal with...

Oxfam ? The people who collect money from poor people in rich countries and give it to rich people in poor countries.
