The militants were armed with homemade hunting rifles, bows and arrows and scimitars.
Militants seeking to impose Islamic Sharia law throughout this multi-religious country attacked police stations, churches, prisons and government buildings in a wave of violence that began Sunday in Borno state and quickly spread to three other states in mainly Muslim northern Nigeria.

Finally a military with a set of balls. Too bad our men and women have to fight a PC war.
Can’t wait to hear the audio from the dead OBL denouncing this. UN will start crying shortly.

Best Priest our parish ever had was Nigerian.
He was so spot on, people complained that he was too hard.
Loved him beyond measure!

Yabba Dabba Doo! The correct solution. Why bother trying to kill fire ants one at a time. Go for the whole nest at once. Save money and lives.

100 people in a mosque in West Africa. The odds are pretty good at least one was related to Mr Soetoro.

......homemade hunting rifles......
I would like to see such a weapon. Apparently they are not semiautomatic or machine guns.
Some were apparently pirates, the ones armed with scimitars

Nigeria sees what has happened in the Sudan. More power to them. I hope the military is well funded.

The story is now updated with
"Nigeria's League for Human Rights says overzealous security forces are killing innocent civilians as the military tries to crush an Islamist militant sect" None of the militants have uniforms, so how can you tell? If they are with the people shooting at you, then my position is that you can shoot back.
If they try running away, so they can attack another day, do you let them? I don't think so.

Good news to end the day on.
That’s almost as good as one of Dave’s Armed Citizen pings.
