The BBC drool over Michelle Obama when they are not still doing all they can for her husband. Her recent engagement on the issue of the kidnapped Nigerian girls by Boko Haram has gotten the BBC all excited and now comes the news that ..
US First Lady Michelle Obama is to deliver her husband’s weekly presidential address to condemn last month’s abduction of Nigerian girls. First ladies normally refrain from outspoken foreign policy remarks, but Mrs Obama has been a vocal campaigner for the release of more than 200 girls.
How very noble of her. I suppose the BBC might take a minute to enquire as to why it is that Michelle’s husband went along with Hillary Clinton’s view that these Islamic savages were NOT a terrorist group? I suppose the BBC might take a further minute to ask where has Michelle been over the past few years as Boko Haram have been slaughtering men women and children? Some might see this entire #bringbackourgirls twitter campaign as little more than ego-indulgence from leftist sirens and ciphers. But not the BBC! By the way, has the BBC asked what the African Union has been doing to help vanquish Boko Haram?
Good post, David. What i still find incredible is this: after all the damage that Islam has caused throughout the world, the terrorism, wars, violence, violation of human rights, grooming, religious fundamentalism, the supremacism and so on, why does no-one ever explore what might lie behind all of these atrocities – i.e. Islam. Because of this Leftist denial and appeasement all we ever get is reactionary measures, never preventative solutions. Islam is THE problem but to say so you risk the scorn of the lefty prats: Islamaphobia etc.
I was in my old hometown in Suffolk last week – I haven’t been there in years – and was shocked at how many grandad nighties, beards and socks and sandal-wearing Muslims there were. Don’t think I’ll be going back for another few years!
” Islam is THE problem but to say so you risk the scorn of the lefty prats: Islamaphobia etc.”
Yes it is, but dont let the lefty prats deter you from saying it as it is. I say it loud and clear whenever the opportunity arises.
Exactly, Al Beeb are still going on and on about how the whole issue is the fault of the Nigerian government.
It’s not the government that kidnapped these girls nor was it the government that muredered tens of thousands of Christians over the last several years.
It’s time they came straight and finally admit that problems and the attrocities are entirely the fault of Islam and those who follow it’s teachings to the letter.
Dateline London, this morning, kept peddling the lie that poverty is the reason behind Boko Haram’s hotheaded acts.

“Michelle Obama wages hashtag counter-jihad”

If only twitter had been around in 1939… No doubt the #pleasedontinvadepoland twitter campaign would have averted WW2. Hitler would have been quaking in his boots, just like Boka Haram must be having seen some celebrity selfies in the past few days.
Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller have the measure of islam and muslims and bravely try to inform as many people as possible. The day will come when we actively resist the onslaught of islam and the socialists/communists will, I hope, pay for what they have done in facilitating the permeation of islam throughout all of our institutions; a notable example being the subterfuge muslims are engaged in regarding their plans to take control of many of our schools.
Essentially this little exercise has sought to make the Presidential weekly address an extension of Michelle Obama’s social network. A rather large waste of money on her ego-indulgence.
Considering the address is mean to be for the American people I am not sure how #bringbackourgirls relates to American citizens?
“Kerry slams Boko Haram jihadists for not offering…a health care plan”

I think it’s right that she should join/lead a campaign against these savages, but not as the “Presidential” Address. As far as I’m aware she has never been president so it is an insult to the office for her to deliver it.
And this “Our girls” bit. What does she mean by “Our”, is she claiming to be Nigerian? Or it because they’re black – which would mean her claim of “Our girls” is racist. In the same way the Obama claimed Travyon Martin would look like his son if he’d had one was a clearly racist comment. Why aren’t the Liberal, self-claimed anti-racist, media picking them up on it?
The girls were kidnapped a month ago.
Why now the upsurge in tears?
Perhaps she had to wait for the wagon with the band on it before she was willing to climb aboard?
“Bonkers Guardian columnist blames Boko Haram kidnappings on… the West!
“The Guardian and its columnist’s priority seems to be to see how they can get out of this situation a bit of a propaganda coup against the West, which of course is more to blame than the global jihad, which isn’t mentioned.”

I think it’s good she said what she said, as the bbc were wavering and would probably have supported Boko Haram as they support the Taliban and sympathise with Al Qaeda.
What INBBC glosses over –
“90% of abducted Nigerian schoolgirls are Christians; jihadists released Muslim girls”

http://www.jihadwatch.org/2014/05/90-of-abducted-nigerian-schoolgirls-are-christians-jihadists-released-muslim-girls/comment-page-1#comment-1055988
This Guardian article from Saturday is one of the very few reports in our media that tells it like it really is – the Nigerian schoolgirls are being used as sex slaves. Even after a month – has the BBC started yet to admit that ?
But I note that the Guardian is not allowing any comments on the article.
Not for INBBC-

Another question that is of concern to Americans — how many votes did mrs o get and what gives her the right to fulminate in her husband’s elected spot?
