Speaking of Muslims, when CCC and I were tiptoeing through the tulip stems in Holland (Michigan) last week "Boko Haram," (Which I might have thought was the band that made "Whiter shade of pale," but which is not.) I say, Boko Haram is a Nigerian Muslim terrorist group (Yes, redundant.) that kidnapped 200 young girls last week and eight, I think it is, more today with the purpose, well let "Shekau," a Boko Haram spokesman, excuse me spokesperson, describe his own intentions:
"I abducted your girls. I will sell them in the market, by Allah. There is a market for selling humans. Allah says I should sell. He commands me to sell. I will sell women. I sell women. Girls, you should go and get married." Said Shekau.
In other words selling the girls into sexual slavery, forced marriages. Some of the girls are eight, nine years old. Shekau, according to CNN, is against the Western education for girls. So this is the idea he and Boko Haram came up with.
Maybe we can find common ground here: Shekau should not be coming up with ideas. Shekau should be pushing up daisies. As should the rest of Boko Haram. But first the Nigerian government has to, like, find the girls, you know what I mean. They have not quite done that yet. And Official Nigeria is feeling the heat. President Goodluck Jonathan...No, I could not have made that up if I had tried, Goodluck has "downplayed" the significance of the kidnappings; personally I would like to hear how Goodluck attempted that but we do have a spokesman for Goodluck who made this attempt:
"The President and the government (are) not taking this as easy as people all over the world think," Doyin Okupe, a spokesman for Jonathan told CNN. "We've done a lot -- but we are not talking about it. We're not Americans. We're not showing people, you know, but it does not mean that we are not doing something."
?
Perhaps we can find common ground here as well. Maybe President Goodluck Jonathan and spokesman Doyin Okupin ought to shut the fuck up for the duration. Perhaps Goodluck and Doyin should be transferred to the MH370 search mission where they can help Muslim Malaysia find the plane. Or maybe Goodluck and Doyin should just be offed. That's the first idea I came up with.
