2025 Nigeria Strikes (and more?) (split fm Trump adm 2024-2028)

There might be need for a "202X U.S. - Nigeria conflict" thread soon.

Trump threatens to deploy the military 'guns-a-blazing' to Nigeria

Good luck with that...

"Nigeria is located on the west coast of Africa and is the most populous black country in the world, bordering the North Atlantic Ocean, between Benin and Cameroon. Nigeria covers 356,668 sq miles (923,7770 sq kilometers). It is about the same size as California, Nevada and Utah combined."

War is diplomacy by other means. - Carl von Clausewitz

Not to suggest that Trump or anyone in his circle would actually recognize the reference, or who said it.

That is a common rephrasing of a statement that has proved hard to nail down the translation.

The full original German phrase is "Der Krieg ist also ein Akt der Gewalt, um den Gegner zur Erfüllung unseres Willens zu zwingen," and the common translation from his seminal work On War (Vom Kriege) is: "War is the continuation of policy by other means" (or "politics by other means") [1, 2].

Both of those translations means slightly different things...., but the gist of the statement remains

Nigeria sees one of worst mass abductions as 315 taken from school​

More than 300 children and staff are now thought to have been kidnapped by gunmen from a Catholic school in central Nigeria, making it one of the worst mass abductions the country has seen.

The Christian Association of Nigeria said 303 students and 12 teachers were taken from on St Mary's School in Papiri, Niger state - substantially more than previously estimated.

It said the figures have been revised upwards "after a verification exercise".

The kidnapping comes amid a surge of attacks by armed groups. The revised number of people taken surpasses the 276 abducted during the infamous Chibok mass abduction of 2014.

 

Alright. Nigeria is on the list.
Yeah, about that ...

Doubtful that they'll get the same kind of cooperation from the Egyptian et al governments as they are getting from the Nigerian.
 
Thought this might be worth its own thread - please carry on.

Meanwhile, Big Catholic Church in Nigeria seems to approve so far ...
