Michelle Obama's #BringBackOurGirls Message Will Remind You Of Drone Horror

The Huffington Post UK

First Lady Michelle Obama backed efforts to rescue more than 270 teenage girls who had been abducted by the Boko Haram terrorist group last month, posting a photo on Twitter holding up a sign reading: "#BringBackOurGirls".

Obama's support for the hashtag campaign supporting efforts to rescue the girls in Nigeria was wittily inverted on Twitter by user Kai Holloway (https://twitter.com/KaiHolloway/status/464688772027015168) to make a sobering point about US drone strikes around the world.

This comes after a study in 2012 found that the CIA's drone campaign (http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2012/09/24/us-drones-terrorising-civilians-in-pakistan_n_1909167.html), which has escalated under Obama, "terrorises men, women and children" in north-west Pakistan "twenty-four hours a day".
The report, by Stanford University and New York University undermined US government's claims that drone strikes in Pakistan make America safer as it found that only very few of the intended targets are killed and instead resulted in high civilian casualties, including 176 children.

Is Allen West right for a change?

Allen West: Focus on Boko Haram Is Obama Ploy to Distract from Benghazi

by Evan McMurry | 10:51 am, May 12th, 2014

It’s amazing it took this long: former Rep. Allen West (R-FL) wrote in a blog post Monday morning that the focus on Boko Haram, which now includes a hashtag campaign spurred by First Lady Michelle Obama, is a “wag the dog” moment by the Obama administration meant to distract attention from the upcoming Benghazi select committee.

“Are we witnessing an Obama ‘Wag the Dog’ moment with Boko Haram in Nigeria?” West asked rhetorically. “I say yes.” (West also noted the suspicious timing of the original movie hitting theaters just before the scandal involving Monica Lewinsky, combined with her reemergence last week; “I digress,” he wrote, “or maybe not.”)
