    Not yet confirmed but there can be little doubt that this is the work of Boko Haram. Disgusting and cowardly.

    Forcing young girls to detonate themselves. How big and brave of them.

    The same brave group who kidnapped all those young girls. I took some time to read about them recently and it makes very grim reading indeed. They're not quite Daesh but they're still bloody evil.

    "Nigerian officials say many girls are*forced to become suicide bombers, and are told that if they refuse they will be killed."

    There's something obvious that's not quite right about that.

    RIP to the 13.

    Not heard about that on the news or anything mate, but then again it is only black Africans eh ?
    I bet a pound to a pinch of ****, that if this had happened in the Oil rich south of the Country it would have been headline news !!

    To be fair if the news headlined every single internal atrocity committed by these and other vile extremists then the news at ten would be about four hours long.

    Yet the Paris incident was covered extensively ? The perpetrators were French/ Belgian nationals, so what is the difference? Only the colour of their skin?

    It's nothing to do with the colour of their skin; there are several attacks in Syria, Iraq, Nigeria and other countries every day so they can't all be covered extensively. They are covered though if you want to read them. I see them most days when I read the news on the Internet.

    The coverage is nowhere near the same mate. They are deemed to be of less worth because they are not Europeans or Yanks. Or the incidents were not in the Oil fields.

    I really don't think that's the case. The kidnap of the Nigerian schoolgirls was headline news around the world. It's simply a case of the news being prioritised according to time and column inches. It is still reported but it's such a common event in these countries it just isn't going to be a headline.

    What about the bombing the day before Paris, in Beirut, Did the newspaper bother about that? Did they ****, it was not in their interests to make it a headline, but now they can blame the refugees , because someone planted a passport(Syrian). The only reason the Murdoch press are so incenced with Syria and want to bomb it , is that Murdoch`s company has been granted the rights to the oil in the Golan Heights that belong to Syria . Whereas before they found oil in that area , no-one was bothered, but all of a sudden it is serious !!

    The bombings and murders in Beirut are in the news all the time Mark; I think you're looking for something that isn't there. I'm not a conspiracy theorist, I just don't buy into them at all but each to their own.
