#Bring Back Our Girls update

Obama Goes Quiet On Boko Haram, What Happened To 'Bring Back Our Girls'?



BY BRIAN HUGHES, Washington Examiner

It started with a groundswell of support and an appeal to “Bring Back Our Girls.” Ten months later, with most of those Nigerian schoolgirls no closer to being home, the White House rarely invokes the mounting atrocities committed by Boko Haram.

As President Obama devotes more time to confronting the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria — he requested formal war powers on Wednesday — and as his administration increasingly focuses on the bloodshed in Ukraine, the rising body count in Nigeria has become just a passing reference.

Unlike the recent Paris terrorist attacks, Boko Haram wasn’t mentioned in Obama’s State of the Union address last month.
