#3 Congressman Mike Rogers takes shot at Hildebeast State Department and regime over Boko Haram.

Amazing hindsight I'd say.

#4 I must have somehow missed Roger's signature on this 2012 Congressional reminder to the Hildebeast over Boko Haram.

#5 If we have no troops on the ground, then the story from the other day about US Marines capturing two of the miscreants is a mistake (or something else)?

#6 Well, MR ask yourself, are US marines are known for their talent of apprehending suspects?

#7 Well, MR ask yourself, are US marines are known for their talent of apprehending suspects?

After the ROE changed in Iraq, they became very, very good at it.

First-person tales told by personal acquaintances and family members speak of 'snatching' miscreants from their upper floor bedrooms whilst clueless jihadists roamed the lower floors and courtyards.

#8 We can use some of that in the Justice Department building Richard. Swoop in, grab certain persons and such and ship them off the Mexico...

#9 The US Barack Hussein Obama Regime refuses to call Boko Haram terrorists. Especially if they are kidnapping innocent children and their Al Qaeda bros are attacking former US Navy Seals trying to protect US Diplomats. Its a Kenyan thing.

#10 then the story from the other day about US Marines capturing two of the miscreants is a mistake

Yes. Judging by the camo pattern and weapon in the photo, they were French marines.

#11 The US Barack Hussein Obama Regime refuses to call Boko Haram terrorists

To be fair, both the Justice Department and the FBI requested that State put them on the designated terrorist list.

Then-SecState HRC refused to do so, based on requests from "experts" on Africa and human rights. So I wouldn't exactly say it was "US Barack Hussein Obama Regime." That's like saying "Tinfoil Hat Brigade" when referring to Rantburg commenters.

#13 Judging by the camo pattern and weapon in the photo, they were French marines.

What better camouflage than for US Marines to appear as something completely different? Wheels within wheels, my friend.

Aw, just kidding. I think it's great we have people here who recognize such things and are willing to share. Very useful when trying to understand what is going on and who is actually doing what.
