Islamic terror group kidnaps 416 women and children--deadline passes, executions imminent

The Jama’atu Ahlis-Sunna Lidda’Awati Wal-Jihad faction of Boko Haram has claimed responsibility for the abduction of 416 women and children from the Ngoshe community in Borno State. The victims were seized on March 4, 2026 after the insurgents overran a military base and fell upon the surrounding village. In late April 2026 the group escalated the horror by releasing a video in which they issued a 72-hour ultimatum, demanding a ransom of ₦5 billion, roughly three and a half million dollars, for the captives’ release.

The details chill the blood. 

Insurgents stormed Ngoshe in the small hours, torching military vehicles, murdering several people, and dragging hundreds of residents away towards the Mandara Mountains. On April 19th they published their ultimatum on video, giving the Nigerian government three days to pay or face the consequences: the captives would be moved to places “where they may never be seen again” or simply executed. 

Senior officials, among them Senator Ali Ndume, have rightly rejected the payment of ransom and called instead for a determined military rescue and a strengthening of security operations. A small mercy arrived on April 23rd when the Borno South Youth Alliance reported that twelve victims, ten female and two male, had escaped during a military bombardment of the terrorists’ camp. That left 404 souls still in captivity.

As of April 30th the deadline has long passed. The terrorists have reportedly abandoned any pretence of negotiation. The fate of those 404 human beings hangs in the most desperate uncertainty.

And where, one is compelled to ask, is the world? Where is the United Nations, so swift to condemn when it suits the narrative? Where are the campus activists and their chants of moral certainty? Where is the Western media, that self-appointed guardian of the vulnerable, otherwise so eager to amplify certain causes? 

The silence is as eloquent as the violence itself. It is, in its way, another crime against humanity, no less damning than the unspeakable acts visited upon these non-Muslim victims.

Only Israel seems capable of concentrating the mind. Everything else fades into indifference, as though a peculiar and compulsive form of Jew-hatred has narrowed the moral vision of our age to a single, obsessive point. The rest of the world’s suffering, especially when perpetrated in the name of radical Islam, barely registers. 

That selective blindness does not merely dishonor the dead and the abducted; it reveals the moral bankruptcy of those who claim to speak for conscience.

Nigeria:Twenty murdered in suspected Boko Haram attack

(photo: REUTERS/Marvellous Durowaiye)

On March 31st this year, there was a suspected Boko Haram attack in Nigeria in which 20 internally displaced persons (IDPs) were murdered in Mafa, Borno State.

According to reports, the victims were IDPs who had gone into a nearby bush to simply search for firewood. The attackers slit the throats of some victims or shot them at close range. At least 30 others (including children) were abducted in the incident. The victims were described as people who had already been repeatedly displaced by Boko Haram violence.

Boko Haram and its splinter groups (like ISWAP) have carried out multiple attacks in 2025–2026 with varying death tolls, including some involving around 20 deaths (e.g., earlier incidents targeting soldiers or civilians), but the March 31st, Mafa event aligns most closely with the details you mentioned. Violence in the region remains persistent, with civilians often caught in the crossfire or directly targeted.

The armed assaults form part of a surge by Boko Haram and its Islamic State splinter group ISWAP, who have stepped up their deadly attacks on military bases and villages in Nigeria’s insurgency-hit northeast.

The gunmen raided the villages of Pubagu and Mayo-Ladde in the states of Borno and neighbouring Adamawa respectively on Tuesday afternoon, after overwhelming local vigilantes, said Mada Saidu, chairman of Askira-Uba district, where one of the attacks occurred.

At least 11 people were killed in Pubagu and nine in Mayo-Ladde. Homes and shops were torched and food supplies looted, Saidu said.

Islamist terrorists have waged a 17-year insurgency seeking to carve out an Islamic state in northeast Nigeria, killing thousands and displacing at least two million people, aid groups say, despite major military campaigns to root them out.

One is left, as so often in these grim chronicles of African jihadism, with the weary sense that the same story repeats itself with only the names of the villages and the precise number of the dead changing. The Nigerian state, for all its declarations of resolve, appears chronically unable to impose order on a region long surrendered to the logic of holy war.

15 randomly slaughtered in S. African bar by unknown gunmen

Fifteen South African people were killed and nine wounded in a bar in Johannesburg's Soweto township overnight when gunmen in a minibus began to "randomly" open fire at them. The injured were rushed to a local hospital.

Based on the number of spent cartridges found at the scene, all indications are that it was a group of people and it also seems that the massacre was planned out to some degree.

Gauteng province police commissioner Lt. Gen. Elias Mawela spoke out about the shooting.

“The primary investigation suggests that these people were enjoying themselves here, in a licensed tavern operating within the right hours,” Mawela said.

“All of a sudden they heard some gunshots, that is when people tried to run out of the tavern. We don’t have the full details at the moment of what is the motive, and why they were targeting these people.”

“You can see that a high caliber firearm was used and it was shooting randomly. You can see that every one of those people were struggling to get out of the tavern,” Mawela added.

He said the area where the shooting took place was dimly lit — making it difficult to find witnesses who could identify the suspects.

Rifles and a 9 mm pistol were used in the attack, said national police spokeswoman Col. Dimakatso Sello.
Authorities say gunmen began to fire “randomly” into the tavern.

But this isn't the first mass shooting at a tavern in South Africa of late. In a separate attack, four people were shot and killed by unknown gunmen in a tavern in Sweetwaters township in the city of Pietermaritzburg last Saturday night.

The police say in the earlier incident that two men entered the tavern and randomly opened fire at the patrons. Two died at the scene and two at the hospital.

There seems to be a pattern: bar/tavern, premeditated and planned random shootings, and alcohol at the scene. What could it be?

The pair of shootings do not appear to be linked, local police said, but I disagree. Could it possibly have something to do with Islamic terrorism? Boko Haram, perhaps? I wouldn't bet against that possibility, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

2 female suicide bombers kill at least 15 in Cameroon

Yaounde, Cameroon -- A religious suicide attack in the far north has killed at least 15 people and wounded 42, according to the Cameroon government.

Governor Midjiyawa Bakary said that two attackers who were identified as female (but we don't know how they identified other than Muslim) blew themselves to shreds in order to kill others and be rewarded with their vision of Islamic heaven.

The attack occurred in the town of Waza late Wednesday. One bomber detonated her vest near a group of children.

Nigeria-based Boko Haram extremists (Boko Haram translates to 'Western education is evil') often cross the border to attack neighboring countries, including Cameroon, which has a military force that seeks to eliminate the scum muffins.

The Islamists have killed over 20,000 people in their eight years of existence.

And yes, Virginia, jihad means war.

Obama: We are at war with words, not Muslims

Muslims fear that recent incidents in which they went on killing sprees against non-Muslims will anger unbelievers and cause us to retaliate against believers in the religion of peace.

President Obama's administration has made it clear that the United States is not at war with Islam but we are at war with words. Rhetoric. If we say the right words, all will be good in the world.

This is why Obama appointed such eloquent wordsmiths like John Kerry and Josh Earnest. When these great speakers verbalize indignation over a suicide bombing, or a simple ISIS beheading, or Iran kidnapping Americans and holding them hostage, Islam listens to what these men have to say. 

Islam hears them and respects their indignation, often apologizing for their abject barbarism.

But is it simply a war of rhetoric, as Josh Earnest said this week?

Recently, a mob of Muslim militants entered a Ndomete village in the Central African Republic (CAR) a went door-to-door killing Christians. The UN confirmed the event and number of casualties. 

The jihadists, believed to belong to the Islamic group Seleka,  killed 26 people, deliberately targeting them because of their religion.

A local Christian leader said, 'If the government is not going to beef up the security, then we are going to defend ourselves. We shall not keep quiet as our brothers are dying."

The Christian leader was not talking about talking to these killers--he was referring to actually killing them if they attempted to kill his brethren.

In Nigeria, Boko Haram jihadists attacked Christians in Kwamjilari village after a Sunday church service, killing 8 Christians who stood outside the house of worship. Boko Haram stationed gunmen on the road leading away from the church so they could shoot those who tried to flee.

One wonders what the Obama administration would say to the attackers. Perhaps something like: "We are outraged over this brutal act of mindless brutality. This is not Islam. Boko Haram does not represent the religion of peace." 

Or something just as inane. 

In Spain, a Cameroon immigrant is now on trial for murdering 6 other immigrants by throwing them overboard while crossing the Mediterranean in his boat. He blamed the rough seas which rocked the boat on the fact that a Catholic pastor was leading the passengers in prayer. He and another Muslim (who later died) beat the pastor with pieces of wood before throwing the victims overboard. 

The killer actually believed that Christian prayer can anger Allah to the point of capsizing his boat. He is so religious that he attributed Allah's power to the rough seas. If that isn't an example of absolute Islamic faith, I don't know what is, but you can imagine Obama's mouthpieces saying how that doesn't represent Islam.

Of course it does. It may not represent all of Islam, but it certainly represents a faction of people who believe they must 'defend' the religion under all circumstances. It represents a faction of those who believe the Medina portion of the Koran that tells them to "kill the unbelievers wherever you find them."

This is not a war on rhetoric. It's a war on people who want to kill us. It's also a war on ideology, but that comes after we get their attention by killing those who would kill us.

It's time to wake up to the hard, cold truth.

Boko Haram leader booted for not killing enough Christians

It appears that the leader of Boko Haram (which means: "Western education is a sin") is being ousted from his position of Head Barbarian by the even more Islamic Islamic State. This is the organization that believes it has the market cornered on how to define the Koran and hopes to make the world its caliphate.

The Boko Haram leader, Abubaker Shekau, enjoyed using children as suicide bombers and the bloodthirsty scumcrumpets are divided amid a new push to kill Christians instead of Muslims who weren't "Islamic enough" in the eyes of the crazy jihadists.

The Islamic State announced in August that Musab al-Barnawi will be Boko Haram's new "governor" after Shekau gave ISIS agita (indigestion in Italian), according to a report in the Wall Street Journal.

The rumor is that Barnawi (aka "Barnyard Dog") is a son of the group's founder. He apparently told ISIS' newspaper that jihadists should kill Nigerian Christians in order to win over public support--the Islamic public enjoys killing Christians and Jews for sport and to please Allah. Shekau was too busy killing small town Muslims who refused to join Boko Haram.

Barnyard Dog told the ISIS paper that they should be "booby-trapping and blowing up every church that we are able to reach, and killing all those we find from the citizens of the cross."

He apparently isn't as tolerant as Islam is purported to be by liberals.

But under Shekau who took control in 2009, Muslim civilians became the majority of the casualties in the violence. "You can't really be more barbaric and more savage than Shekau," said Issoufou Yahaya, a political analyst and head of the Niamey University history department in Niger. "He is the pinnacle of barbarism."

Shekau refuses to recognize Barnawi's appointment and accused him of apostasy--punishable by death, as is pretty much everything that isn't what a Muslim considers Islamic. Shekau said that Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was duped by this guy and the two groups have been clashing and accusing each other of abandoning Islam.

But just because one group interprets a situation as one that calls for a beheading, while the other group says the miscreant should be thrown to his or her death from a high place, doesn't seem like grounds for arguing, yet each sees it as their religious duty to kill the way Allah commands it to be done, in the Koran.

On a brighter note, oh wait, there is no brighter note.

Nigeria says Boko Haram leader is dead

Nigeria -- Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau was reported to be "fatally wounded" by the Nigerian military on Tuesday. However, this cannot be confirmed at this time, nor is it clear as to how the military was able to obtain this information but they also identified other "confirmed dead" commanders in an air raid on Friday.

The military report comes just before Secretary of State John Kerry is scheduled to meet President Muhammadu Buhari in Abuja, the captial of Nigeria. They are to discuss Islamic extremism and regional security.

Kerry spoke Tuesday morning in Sokoto city, and kept the army's report on the 'down low.'

Shekau is known to be a "fearless leader" with a photographic memory. His sobriquet is Darul Tawheed which translates as a specialist in Tawheed or the concept of monotheism in Islam.

Ahmed Salkida, a BBC journalist described Shekau: "He hardly talks. He is fearless . . . He is one of those who believes that you can sacrifice anything for your belief."

Shekau is fluent in Kanuri, his native language as well as Hausa and Arabic. He doesn't speak English and it is reported that he never directly communicates with Boko Haram soldiers. He is known for being extremely brutal as he follows the terrorist guidelines found in Islamic scripture.

"I enjoy killing anyone that God commands me to kill--the way I enjoy killing chickens and rams," he said in a 2012 video clip after his Kano, Nigeria attack killed 180 people. 

The only way Shekau knows who God wants him to kill is in the Koran--Jews, Christians, gays, atheists and everyone who isn't as Islamic as he thinks they should be.

In a 2009 crackdown, he and then leader Mohammed Yusuf were thought to be killed. Yusuf was but Shekau later surfaced in a video claiming to be the group's new leader. 

Claims of Shekau's demise had become Nigeria's national sport since then, but he seems to resurface like a discarded condom in a pond. But the military made claims that Shekau was dead and they were using a look-alike to impersonate him. 

They were wrong. 

The latest strikes came in "the most unprecedented and spectacular air raid" by the Nigerian Air Force while Shekau was doing namaz on Friday, Islam's holy day. This was at Taye village in the Sambisa  Forest, a terrorist holdout in northeast Nigeria, according to army spokesman Col. Sani Kukasheka Usman.

Shekau pledged allegiance to the Islamic State last year which gave ISIS its first sub-Saharan Africa franchise.

Boko Haram has to go along with ISIS and all terror groups

Boko Haram and Shahada finger sign

The United States and our allies need to do something about this scourge, this horrific cruelty that's being carried out in many parts of the world, all in the name of Islam. 

Boko Haram Muslims firebombed huts killing 86 people in Dalori, Nigeria. There were children among those immolated in the attack and the atrocity was witnessed by a person who fled and hid in a tree.

Dozens of charred and bullet-riddled bodies were strewn in the streets from the attack, about 5 kilometers from Maiduguri, the place where Boko Haram first began.

Shahada finger sign

Beside the burning and shooting, there were explosions from three female suicide bombers, all with the belief that by killing infidels, they would attain Paradise (aka Jannah). The male suicide bombers get rewarded with 72 beautiful brown-eyed virgins, the females get rewarded with being close to their dead husband in the afterlife. 

Journalists who spoke to survivors afterward were told that help took too long to arrive from nearby Maiduguri, the military HQ for fighting Boko Haram.

Shahada finger sign

At least Hillary Clinton wasn't involved--nothing would get resolved.

This has been going on for 6 years and to date, the total dead is around 20,000 and millions without homes.

Boko Haram means "Non-Islamic education is a sin."

And killing people who are educated in a non-Islamic way is okay.

This must be stopped dead in its tracks before it's too late.

Jeb! Bush: 5 things to consider about him before voting

Now that Jeb! is throwing his hat in the ever-enlarging campaign ring, we should get to know his views. Jeb Bush has name recognition, but not everyone knows how he stands on national security, specifically Islamic terrorism.

1. Jeb Bush has said, ""[Islam has] been hijacked by people who have an ideology that wants to destroy Western civilization, and they're barbarians. And so that part, which is the part that we need to confront head-on, is clearly not a religion of peace."

Nobody has "hijacked" jack squat. Islam is Islam. Islamic scripture, like Judeo-Christian scripture, has good parts and bad parts. But in Islamic scripture, i.e., the Koran, the good parts are abrogated by the bad parts. That is, the earlier Koran written by Mohammad's scribe while in Mecca, was peaceful because Islam was weak. The latter Koran, written by the scribe because Mohammad was never able to read or write, was written in Medina, when Islam was powerful. And the Medina Koran abrogated (that is, negated) the earlier, peaceful Koran.

To call Islam a "religion of peace" is ridiculous, if you follow what the religion of peace is doing in the world. Their definition of peace is that state of being in the world when only Allah is worshiped and the Jews and all non-believers are destroyed. Only then will there be peace.

2. Jeb believes that the way to fight radical Islam is to concentrate more on security and less on promoting Western values. "Am I the same as my brother? Of course not. I'm not. I think, for example, our foreign policy ought to be grounded in not just the export of our own values and nation-building. These are good sentiments, but first and foremost is security and peace."

Jeb really seems to be working hard at not being his brother, but his take on how to fight this ideology is naive. 

Security is important, of course. Nobody denies that. But if you want to put an end to this 1400 jihad, you need to change the way many Muslims think of their so-called religion. 

The Islamic State is winning the hearts and minds of young people on the Internet. They are convincing people to kill and die for them. Now that must be one hell of a powerful message. 

We need to do the same. We need to convince young people that Western civilization is desirable and not evil. We need to also use shock and awe to rattle their now-secure cages. They need to know soon that they are going to lose, and once they know that, they just might listen to reason. If not, we keep killing them for national security.

3. Jeb has Jordan Sekulow as a top adviser to his "Right to Rise" PAC. The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR, pronounced "go to hell") demand that Bush drop Sekulow, the executive director for the American Center for Law and Justice from the PAC because they claim he's "anti-Muslim." Sekulow, a lawyer, has written a pamphlet entitled: "Shari'a Law: Radical Islam's Threat to the U.S. Constitution."

CAIR is an un-indicted co-conspirator with the Holy Land Foundation--a group that funneled money to Hamas and supports terror. Why they are allowed to operate in the United States is a mystery--you might ask Obama.

Having Sekulow on board with Jeb is a good thing--Jordan isn't fooled by CAIR or Islam and perhaps can show Bush why he needs to rethink his take on the religion of peace.

Jordan Sekulow has been referred to by the leftist magazine, Salon, as an "evangelical attorney." They call Jeb's acquiring of Jordan as "a major coup." If Salon attacks Sekulow, you know he's good--it's scaring them like crazy.

4. Jeb criticized Obama for pulling his support for Egyptian President Mubarak and now thinks the U.S. should be more friendly towards President El-Sisi.

Bingo. I am in full agreement with Bush on this one. El-Sisi's speech was incredibly courageous when he said that Egypt needs to be less reliant on the old ways of Islam and more accepting of the values of the non-Islamic world. 

They will probably try to kill El-Sisi for this.

5. On Iran, Jeb opposes a nuclear deal but isn't sure if he supports a regime change at this time. He believes, however, that we should align ourselves with those Iranians who oppose the current regime.

Again, I believe he is spot on regarding the so-called deal. Iran is going to develop a bomb and probably go after Israel.

"Once we're done with Israel, just you wait"

Obama hates Israel and likes Islamic nations, based on his track record. He is basically handing Iran the bomb and Bush is fully aware of that.

5. On ISIS, Jeb is not so fully aware. In fact, he's kind of an idiot.

He has shown the same level of knowledge regarding ISIS as Obama showed regarding the number of states in the union. (Remember, our "Genius in Chief" said there are 57 states.)

In a foreign policy speech made last February, he said that our government estimated ISIS has 200,000 fighters. In fact, the estimate was 20,000 to 30,000. He mispronounced the terrorist group, Boko Haram, in spite of the fact that it had been all over the news. 

He also called Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi "the guy that's the supreme leader or whatever his new title is--head of the caliphate."

Jeb needs to do some research.

Imam John Kerry Mohammad Warns US Against Islamophobia

It's good to see John Kerry getting into that old-time religion, Islam. Our Vietnam hero is calling for more resources in the fight against "global extremism" and not Islamic terrorism. 

Imam John abu Kerry

In fact, our once upon a time swift boat commander, and head-up-his-nether-regions-Secretary of State turned Imam, warns us that, while we must fight the threat of people whose religion has nothing to do with why they're fighting us (and saying magic words like, "Allahu Akbar" as they chop off our head) we must take care not to be Islamophobic.

This latest revelation comes from the article by Warren Strobel, "Kerry calls for more resources in anti-extremist fight, warns of Islamophobia,"  Reuters, January 23, 2015.

The ISIS Crisis

The Islamic State (formerly known as ISIS) jihadists have allegedly buried alive 500 people, including women and children. These were just some of the long list of atrocities committed by these "by the book Muslims," and reported by Iraqi Human Rights Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani.

The IS is working feverishly to create a world caliphate, starting with Iraq then moving on to other places in the Middle East, and is coming to a city near you very soon, I suspect.

After IS seized Sinjar and executed the innocent Yazidis in the process, some 300 women were taken as sex slaves, as is recommended by Mohammed, the prophet of Islam (peas be up in him). You may remember that another Islamic orthodox group, namely Boko Haram, did the same with young girls in Africa. (Boko Haram roughly translates into "Western Society is Sinful" but killing infidels is not, and it's good for the soul.)

It needs to be made clear that IS is doing nothing that is not in the Koran, their, um, "holy scripture." (9:29) where "there is no compulsion in religion" is abrogated and Muslims are commanded to fight against the People of the Book (Christians and Jews). But this sura also says that as long as they feel themselves subdued and pay the jizya, a heavy tax to help Muslims in their continuous war effort, they will be spared.

But IS has enough money so they don't need to spare anyone and this is exactly what they are doing to those who refuse to convert.

When Mo designed this "religion," he was cunning enough to make it self-perpetuating. 

What a devil of a guy and what a screwed up cult.

Yazidis, ISIS and the Crusades Coming Soon

A Yazidi parliamentarian woman spoke out against Islamic jihad on this Video where she is clearly in fear for her life and the lives of her fellow countrymen.

"We are being butchered under the banner of There is no God but Allah!" she cries. "Up to now, 500 Yazidi men and boys have been butchered."

The speaker then interrupted her: "There is some uproar in the Iraqi Parliament for say that Yazidis are being butchered under the banner of There is no God but Allah." He said this several times in an attempt to silence her, it appears.

But she goes on: "Our women are being used as concubines and sold in markets." This is what Mohammed did when he was killing "folks," this is what jihadists do to emulate the prophet of Islam.

She explains that the people stuck in the mountains have no food nor water as ISIS keeps them trapped there. Thus far. 70 children have died of thirst and 50 elderly have also died of bad circumstances.

If this video does not open your eyes to what Islam is all about, you have no heart.

ISIS, Hamas, al Qaeda, the Muslim Brotherhood, Boko Haram, and the Taliban, to mention just some of the larger terrorist organizations, must be stopped dead in their tracks. This cancerous intolerance of anything not orthodox Islam is not stopping at borders--they don't respect borders (sounds very presidential). 

This is going to be like the Crusades and it isn't going to end pretty.

31 Dead in China: the mystery continues

On Thursday Muslim terrorists attacked a West China open air market in the town of Urumpki, of the Xinjiang province, killing 31 and injuring 90 more. 

The Islamic jihadists plowed through the crowds in an off-road vehicle, threw explosives out the window and finally crashed and then blew up. Eye witnesses said they believe there may have been as many as a dozen explosions in all. 

It wasn't immediately clear that the attackers were Islamic jihadists, those who take their religion literally, but what were they thinking in China? Could it be Amish marauders? Disenfranchised Hindus? Pissed off Jains?

For those keeping score, the death toll in this attack was the highest in Xinjiang since the riots of '09 between the hearty Uighur Muslims, and the Chinese Hans, in which almost 200 people were killed in the name of Islam. 

Of course, CAIR and other Islamic groups with terrorist ties will say that the attack had nothing whatsoever to do with the "real" Islam. Jihad, they will claim, is an internal struggle. 

Sure it is; but the jihad that's going to get you the 72 virgins, boys who will serve your needs in every way, and rivers of wine for eternity, is the jihad of war. Don't let 'em convince you otherwise--that's taqiyya.

Islamic jihadist protocol requires that Boko Haram, the Muslim Brotherhood, Al Qaeda, Hezbollah, Hamas, the Taliban, and Brandeis University send "Thank You" cards to the families of the dead jihadists. 

A New York reporter, is captured by Islamist terrorists who demand the release of three Gitmo prisoners in exchange for him. If the president refuses their demands, they plan to behead the reporter and videotape it for the Internet. But the United States doesn’t give in to terrorist’s demands and he has 24 hours before he is to be executed. The clock is ticking . . .

Hollywood's Low-Information Protest

It's now all the rage to protest against sharia law, all the beautiful people are doing it in Hollywood. Ellen DeGeneres, Clive Davis, Jay Leno, and Jeffrey Katzenberg, to name a few, are vigorously opposing the Seventh Century laws of Islam, known as sharia. They are doing so by not spending money at Sultan Hassanal Bolkia's Beverly Hills Hotel, because the Sultan has decided to implement sharia law in Brunei, an oil-soaked, East Asian country he heads. But the sad part is, when some of the people at the protest were questioned as to why they were protesting, they said it was to oppose Bolkia's "policy." They are still clueless.

It Took 300 Kidnappings to Wake Up the Left

It's really sad that almost 300 young schoolgirls were kidnapped by the Islamic Nigerian terrorist group, Boko Haram, in April. Sadder still is that it took a tragedy of this proportion to wake up the left, including the Hollywood left, to voice anger and shock over it.

The politically correct cannot call this "misappropriation of gender-specific cargo," or something equally as passive, but the PC Police are saying that this act by the terrorist group is "hijacking Islam."

Now the Koran says that a man can have as many as 4 wives (except for Muhammed--he got an Allah dispensation for at least 9 and maybe as many as 12, but he doesn't count as a regular guy) but if the man can't handle the cost of 4 he should marry one or resort to "those whom your right hands possess" (4:3).

"Just a Bunch of Guys Who Decided to Go for a Walk: What difference does it make?"

"If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained, you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle." Sun Tzu, The Art of War. 

Hillary Clinton doesn't know the enemy and she does not seem to really know herself. In a Fox News report today, by Judson Burger and the Fox News team, it was revealed the Hillary "What-Difference-Does-It-Make" Clinton and the State Department refused to label Boko Haram as a terrorist organization.

Of course, since the kidnapping by this group of almost 300 Nigerian schoolgirls, she has called their actions "abominable," and said it was an act of terrorism the merits "the fullest response possible."

Goodluck, John, and Barry: the hunt for the 276 victims in Nigeria

Goodluck Jonathan, Nigeria's President (not to be confused with Badluck Benjamin of Egyptian fame) met with security officials of the school and state over his concerns regarding the 276 young girls who were kidnapped by Boko Haram. 

Boko Haram is an Islamic group whose name means "Western education is bad," and they don't take well to kids actually learning things outside the Koran, Islamic scripture written in the Seventh Century. The word "boko" literally means book and "haram" is the Jewish equivalent of "non-kosher," but you better not tell them that--they have a thing about Jews.

The Koran is supposed to be the perfect book, in spite of all the mistakes in it, but I cannot talk about that topic without risking certain death at the hands of my neighbor. (I know this because his wife wears a niqab, which is a veil that covers her entire face except her eyes. Muslim women do this because it keeps Muslim men from raping them or forcing their husband to give them a charity beating.) He seems like a nice, quiet guy, smokes a lot on the porch, wears jeans, washes his car regularly, but I know I'm screwed if he finds out about the novel I wrote (see below if you're interested).

Anyway, Goodluck Jonathan seems to be doing all he can to find these poor girls. It is unknown if they were killed or taken as slaves or wives--in the latter two cases, they are almost synonymous. Our very own Secretary of State, John Swiftboat Kerry vows to help find those girls.

"The kidnapping of hundreds of children by Boko Haram is an unconscionable crime," Kerry told the Washington Post on Saturday, adding, "We will do everything possible to support the Nigerian government to return these young women to their homes and hold the perpetrators to justice."

The kidnapping on April 14th was preceeded by a huge explosion several hour earlier in Abuja, the capital of Nigeria. The blast killed 75 and it spread fear that the Islamic jihad is alive and well. Ya think?

Kerry wasn't specific about how he thinks we could help Nigeria in the hunt for these orthodox Muslims, aka Boko Haram, but I put as much faith in him as I do for his boss who, as I write this, is busy hunting down those terrorists responsible for the Benghazi attack that killed our ambassador and three other brave men. And who pledged to get to the bottom of the IRS scandal. And who swore to get those guys who killed Border Agent, Brian Terry, in the Fast and Furious scandal.

But in order for Kerry and Obama to get these messes under control, the government may need to assign numbers to them so they don't get them mixed up.

There is nothing funny about this latest kidnapping by Islamic jihadists, but I certainly don't trust our government to do much to stop these trends. When we can all agree here in the West that Islam's goal is to establish a world caliphate, that is, to make the world entirely Muslim, then we might be able to stop the militant spread of Islam. When we call it "workplace violence" and ignore the truth, we are as vulnerable and as stupid as the proverbial ostrich. 

In my latest novel, a New York reporter is taken hostage by terrorists. If POTUS refuses to release 3 Gitmo jihadists, the reporter will die in 24 hours—they will behead him and show it on the Internet. There is only one way out but the clock is ticking . . .

Nigeria: Over 200 Young Women and Girls Kidnapped by Religious Muslim Group

Chibok, Nigeria: over 200 young women and girls were taken from their boarding school by the Islamic group, Boko Haram. Some of the parents are frantically searching for their missing children while security forces are supposedly in "hot pursuit." 

A group religious discussion

Parents wept and begged the kidnappers to "have mercy on our daughters," and pleaded for the government to help in their rescue. Some of the parents headed into the dangerous forest on  motorcycles where the victims are believed to have been taken, ignoring the dangers that lie within. A week has gone by without success thus far.

One parent, Musa Muka, who had her 17 year old child abducted, said: "We plead with the government to help rescue her and her friends; we pray nothing happens to her." Let's hope that her prayers were asked of the Muslim god, and not any other--Boko Haram doesn't cotton well to anyone who is non-Muslim.

It is likely that anywhere from 39 to 50 girls escaped the abduction, but the actual number isn't clear. However, this latest event is a clear embarrassment to the Nigerian military after announcing last week that they had rescued all but 8 of the captives. Unlike the Obama administration that usually doubles-down after being caught in a lie, the Nigerian military actually retracted their statement.

Major General Chris Olukolade, who is the very model of a modern Major General and Defense Ministry spokesman said, "The operation is going on and we will continue to deploy more troops." This should give great comfort to those parents who are missing their girls--the government has been as effective as Bill de Blasio in his effort to fight terrorism in New York City.

Results of religious discussion

The Nigerian Air Force was bombing the forest daily until now, but has to stop the sorties to prevent harming the innocent victims. In all probability, they are being used as sex slaves and peons--after all, it's Islamic tradition to enslave your enemies, you can read it in the Koran.

In a video by Boko Haram's leader, Abubakar Shekau, he repeated his opposition to the "corrupting" Western influences and said, "Everyone that calls himself a Muslim must stop obeying the constitution, must abandon democracy, must stay away from Western education. Western education is sinful." He didn't weigh in on whether abducting girls and young women, using them as sex slaves, and stoning them to death for not agreeing to follow his beliefs, is sinful as well. But hey, that's just how those "religion of peace" fellas roll. Even the words "Boko Haram" means "Western education is sinful." It does not mean, "Killing non-believers is a bad thing." This may account for the historic sparsity of Nobel prizes in the sciences by followers of this noble religion.

A New York reporter, is captured by Islamist terrorists who demand the release of three Gitmo prisoners in exchange for him. If the president refuses their demands, they plan to behead the reporter and videotape it for the Internet. But the United States doesn’t give in to terrorist’s demands and he has 24 hours before he is to be executed.
