Trump Threatens Military Action in Nigeria Over Protections for Christians

President Trump on Saturday threatened Nigeria with potential military action and said the United States might cut off aid, accusing the West African country’s government of failing to protect Christians.

Mr. Trump said in a post on social media that he was instructing the Pentagon “to prepare for possible action” to wipe out “Islamic Terrorists” in the country. “If we attack,” he wrote, “it will be fast, vicious, and sweet, just like the terrorist thugs attack our CHERISHED Christians!”

Later on Saturday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth responded to the president’s post with: “Yes sir.”

Are you offended that Trump's America First claims were a lie?

A threat takes very little effort.  Why are you so upset?

So, are you claiming it's an empty threat? You think empty threats are a good way to go?

 

And the mark of someone who has nothing relevant to say here is that they make it personal instead.

A few sanctions make help protect the oppressed.  Do you care about oppressed people?

So now waging war is nothing more than sanctions?

Trump also threatened to wage war. Did you miss that part?

Vice President Vance is rumoured to be quite energetic and committed to "cherishing Christians" - I wonder what position he takes?

No no, not possible for such a peace loving president that's ending all violent wars globally.  

Trump faking a war in Africa to justify war powers at home.

I do. Especially in the USA today.
We need to 'fix' the problems in America. Take the money being spent on killing South American fishermen and use it to feed the millions of oppressed Americans who 'had benefited' from supplemental food programs that are now stopped.
Let's fix America before we spend our tax money fixing other countries.

I think he takes the "doggy style" position, and he's catching, not pitching.
