100 were killed a couple of days ago but the Paris attacks pushed that news into a strap line :-(

Sky news regularly report on the activities of these maniacs. Defies belief.

that Joy, I think they will never do........sadly, it distresses me to think that some of the original band aid money might have gone to give these cretins some form of existence,

I listen to the BBC World Service almost daily. They report the frequent atrocities carried out by the Islamist Boko Haram all over that region. Often involving whole villages - quite chilling.

Our normal news channels never report it.

Like you Bob, I am often lost for words, and it's frequently too painful to think about.

I can't see a solution to this evil.

how much lower can these despicable bastards get?



At least 19 people have been killed and several injured by a bomb strapped to a girl reported to be aged about 10 in north-eastern Nigeria, police say.

The bomb exploded in a market in the city of Maiduguri, in Borno state.

"The explosive devices were wrapped around her body," a police source told Reuters.

No group has said it carried out the attack. The market is reported to have been targeted twice in a week by female bombers late last year.

Correspondents say that all the signs point to the militant Islamist Boko Haram group.

They have been fighting to establish an Islamic caliphate in the north-eastern states of Borno, Yobe and Adamawa, which have borne the worst violence in their five year insurgency.
