Here's one UK report on the massacre in Nigeria:
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/africa/witnesses-claim-2000-people-were-killed-in-a-boko-haram-assault-that-destroyed-a-town-9969252.html
This appalling act of barbarism seems to have stayed more or less completely under the radar in the West, overshadowed by the events in Paris. This is but one measure of the contempt and disregard the West has for non-Western lives.

I share your revulsion at the sickening sight of Netayahoo posturing in favour of human rights and against Islamist terrorism. Bibi has to be Islamist terrorism's best friend and #1 recruiting sargeant. Who else provides them with such inflammatory recruitment material such as the recent Israeli slaughter in Gaza, or the ongoing theft of Occupied Palestine with its attendant ethnic cleansing and apartheid?

It is outrageous to pretend that the West is a blameless victim of mindless Islamist terrorism while it continues its savage assaults in Muslim lands and indulges Bibi and his fellow gangsters in the organised crime entity aka the Israeli Govt as they steal Palestine and slaughter the indigenous Palestinians. It is outrageous to paint Israel as a victim of mindless Palestinian terrorism while Israel maintains its brutal military occupation of Palestine, which has gone on continuously since 1967 and rather than showing any signs of abating is actually intensifying its stranglehold on Palestinian life and lives. Victims don't do military occupations. Period.

There are no Muslim armies in Western lands, there are Western armies in Muslim lands. Precisely who is the aggressor?

Thats a great new photo of you Vincent, you look happy and healthy there.

You think you threw in enough topics? There are several really wild claims thrown in there. How about a few links? Or are we just supposed to believe it because someone posted it on the Internet.

Actually I agree. There is WAY too much to comment on, to do so would mean writing a book.

Darn. The world does get complicated sometimes, doesn't it? If only it were all so simple that a mass, feel good march could set everything to rights.

Meanwhile, Israel continues to use attack dogs against peacefully protesting Palestinians ala Bull Conner in 1960s Birmingham.

During the confrontation, Palestinians threw stones at soldiers, who responded with use of crowd control weapons.

According to your admittedly biased website:

Military and police units around the world use dogs, vincent

This is just more of the typical, use any propaganda available to try to suggest that Jews are subhuman

Yeah the world is complicated but all the shit going on doesn't have to be stuffed into one post. It would be more productive to give each issue a separate thread.

Where was he when we needed him most?

The boyish little dictator failed to march in solidarity with the other world leaders in yesterday’s hypocritical anti-terrorism photo op in Paris. Also missing was the Generalissimo of America’s drone terror armada, Barry Obama. Ooo Boo, Barry! News reports tell us that US drones accidently killed 50 innocent civilians elsewhere. Oops.

Quite prominent in the center of the photo, however, is that eloquent and compassionate humanitarian, overseer of the Gaza death camps, Bibi Netanyahu. What a guy! Always there for human rights.

Meanwhile, Rupert Murdock calls for death to all Muslims and Rand Paul takes the opportunity to warn America we are in danger. Like 9/11 never happened.

Oh, and btw, some news reports that around 2000 innocent Nigerians were killed the last few days. But who counts Nigerians? Where was the outrage?

The caravan will move on and the barking of the dogs will fade.

Your observations? Agreements, hating on my cynical points of view? Have at it.

Well, at least, you've restored my faith that there are indeed people looking at and understanding the broader structure among the many looking at yesterday's sound bite and faux-rage over whatever they were told to get excited about, letting the unreported become the never-happened-not-important.

Indeed, real life gets complicated, fast, and off the cuff opinions and solutions are just so much noise.

You wrote before that the "protesters" were peaceful

According you your own source they were violent

(I suppose you have never been hit with rocks before)

And yes, civilized nations use dogs the world over for police and military operations

Come back when you are ready to be honest about things. Until then you are wasting everyones time

I'm OK with the ideal.

At the same time, yes, I live in the real world, and make decisions accordingly.

'peaceful' and 'violent' are relative terms when referring to stones and guns, Tim.
