I'm not on a hotplate at all.

I contend the US has no vital interest in Nigeria.

What is your position? So far I haven't seen you state one.

Is it your position that the US Military should intervene in Nigeria and root out the Islamists?

[Rashputin]

My position is we do have a vital interest in both Nigeria and in wiping out groups like Boko whenever we can.

We can contract to protect portions of Iraq, we could easily contract with people to take out Boko. Probably with people on the African continent with no US citizens involved. Wherever Muzzies think they can wipe out Christians with impunity it's in our interest to have them learn otherwise and it's easy enough to do without involving US troops.
