Does Trump know what he's doing in Nigeria ??

Featured Replies

It's late for me to post but I see that the Trump led USA is attacking Sokoto State in Nigeria ??

 

Catching a Sky bulletin, A Nigerian was puzzled because the attacks seem to be in the area where I.S. is NOT !

 

The I.S. terrorists and 'Boko Haram' are based in N.E, Nigeria, Maiduguri State  - around that region.. The Nigerian Guy pointed out on Sky that that's a 1000 km away !

 

Nigeria is a big country with 230 million population. I know Sokoto State, (reportedly attacked) and many years ago flew there fortnightly.

 

I looked around Birnin Kebi, the home then of the Sultan Of Sokoto, a major force in the Hausa population, (86,000,000 Muslims covering Sahelian West Africa). A fond memory, leaving the car unlocked, my Wife and I strolled around the Town with kids dancing around us, for an hour or two. People came out of the mud houses, danced and sang or us in welcome. We returned to the car to find her handbag untouched on the back seat. Times have changed, but this is NOT the home of 'Boko Haram'.

 

What the hell are the USA and Trump up to . . . ? Does he have a clue ?? (on this, or anything else). I thought Trump's mantra for the USA was, America first !

 

Heaven help us !!!

Heaven help us!!!

Nick - I support stopping Muslims killing Christians and vice versa !

 

But random bombing of an area 1000 km west of target, is worse than bone headed. 

 

 

Might there be a Nigerian domestic political agenda we don't know about that has little to do with battling muslim fanatics?

The attacks were coordinated with the Nigerian government and it should know where the terrorists are,

 

The U.S. military’s Africa Command said the strike was carried out in Sokoto state in coordination with Nigerian authorities and killed multiple ISIS militants.

Nigerian Foreign Minister Yusuf Maitama Tuggar told the British Broadcasting Corp the strike was a "joint operation" targeting "terrorists", and it "has nothing to do with a particular religion".

Without naming ISIS specifically, Tuggar said the operation had been planned "for quite some time" and had used intelligence information provided by the Nigerian side.

Of course he knows, and is the only one in the whole world, what he has to do to get the Nobel Peace Prize or any other peace prize for that matter. Most of them will be created, and financially supported by the Trump Org or other feet kissers.

Next target might be RSA, because the whites have been treated soooo badly there for years.

 

He is quickly turning into a war president. And that is dangerous territory, when one considers the fact that the US has not been in a victorious war of any significance since 1945. Alot of humble pie, and alot of defeats since then. 

 

And now, with little Petie in charge? Yikes. 

He is creating more distractions from Epstein and his rapidly waning popularity.

Its a coordinated effort by two Governments who don't support , ISIS extremists. 

Don't be surprised if the leftist get a hissy fit about it.ISIS is a global threat.

 

 

Google ai overview:

"ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) is a Sunni jihadist, ultra-violent, extremist terrorist group that seeks to establish a global caliphate and claims religious authority over all Muslims. Designated a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) by the US State Department in 2013 (as the successor to Al-Qaeda in Iraq), it poses a significant global security threat".

   Did you write that yourself ?

 

Yes I did. The Company I worked for was building a complete Army barracks for 3,000 soldiers and their Families, including Schools and Hospitals, about 10km from Birnin Kebi, where the influential Sultan of Sokoto was based. 

 

It seems the US Dept. of Defence has been renamed Dept. of War, quite aptly. 

 

For context, the area is 900 km north of the southern coast of Nigeria.

 

What the hell is the USA up to ? You Trumpeters should ask yourselves, "What happened to America first ?"

 

It's hard to see how these remote attacks can help, whatever the problem is.

 

OMG - it's insane !
