Yeah I am getting the feeling my threads and posts are like farts in lifts. Seriously though, I deem the situation in Nigeria to be exponentially worse. Life is far cheaper in Nigeria and atm it is extremely dangerous with both sides slugging it out, a myriad of other groups and foreign security companies operating there, cover that with lashings of stinking corrupt "our turn at the trough" BP backed government and you get a tragic picture, one that has been so for decades tbh. No matter who gets into power they deem it their tribe's turn at the trough. Ukraine is a religious and Ideological struggle between an extremely violent and racist minority backed by the West against Eastern and Southern Ukrainians who only took up arms when an illegitimate government took power and forced their will on them and criminalised their identities by banning their language and TV, which I am sure was just the start of purging Ukraine of anything Russian, except the weapons they use of course. I am watching footage of teenagers standing in front of tanks, people, passive people not wanting conflict, those are the majority and that majority wants neither East nor West to be involved, like most of the rest of us we'd like to have more say in how the country is run, us westerners are just too ****ing busy with Not606.com to do anything about it
In Nigeria, when Ken Saro Wiwa, an environmental activist, was executed by a military tribunal in 1995. The execution was blatantly done on behalf of Shell Oil, so much so that in 2009 $15.5 million was paid to the families of Wiwa and Shell's other victims in order to prevent a trial in a United States District Court. There you have it Shell BP and the others are actually having people killed in Nigeria.
Escaped or released? We don't know. I certainly don't believe anything the media tells me. If they are as claimed connected to the groups in Syria then it is entirely possible there is a line of communication to Boko harem.
