      I am surprised that this "news", in general, slipped through the world media. For the West, life behind the "golden billion" does not exist!

And everywhere sheer hypocrisy, I want to fly away from Mars from everything: (((!

          The people grow stale ... the daily flow of negativity from the box ... and for some, the information that somewhere 30 people died at once causes only "mathematical" less than B or less than Y ...
          If, after the terrorist attack in France, commentators wrote - Condolences ...
          Something is not visible on this forum thread.
          I'm so sorry.

      There will be no flag, but the journalists from Charlie Ebdo took pencils and paper, probably Nigeria’s condolences will be drawn.

      Many drew attention to the fact that in the West they reacted with great indignation to the terrorist attacks in Paris, and they reacted rather indifferently to the crash of the Russian plane, in which more people died. According to Stephen Sestanovich, a professor at Columbia University, it’s all about the politics of Vladimir Putin, which makes it increasingly difficult for the international community to show solidarity.

      The attacks in Paris, like any terrorist act, raise questions about why people react to some acts of violence with more indignation than to others. According to a professor at Columbia University, senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, Stephen Sestanovich, people in Lebanon ask why the West reacted so impassively to the attacks in Beirut last week, and the Russians notice that twice as many were killed during the crash of a passenger airliner on the Sinai Peninsula people than in Paris.

      According to Sestanovich, those who ask such questions have good reason, since there is no reason for a different human reaction to these cases of violence. However, when politics intervenes in normal human reactions, you need to figure out what the matter is.

      According to the author of the Wall Street Journal, the whole point is what political scientists call “soft power”: in trusting how others act. Russia, Sestanovich continues, in recent years has lost most of this “soft power”, and this affects when it comes to the fight against terrorism.

      Western leaders do not want to stand shoulder to shoulder with Russian President Vladimir Putin, because they are not convinced that the common goal - countering the Islamic State * * really turns Russia into an ally. In addition, the author of the article writes, many are not satisfied with the methods by which the Russian president achieves his goals.
      “Putin echoes European leaders when he says he is worried about the jihadists among the Russian Muslim minority. Nevertheless, we remember how he solved this problem by razing Chechen cities to the ground and imposing a brutal local dictatorship on Chechnya. When Putin deprives himself of "soft power", Russia - and we all pay for it. It is more difficult for us to express sympathy, it is more difficult for us to show solidarity in a common cause, ”concludes Steven Sestanovich.

      Naturally. About Nigeria once a month for 2 seconds in the news will say and that's it. They explode there almost every day. Now ISIS members will flee from Syria to their branch "Boko Haaram", Nigeria will be completely lost. But they won't talk about it, not the format. hi

    It is significant that the world media were not very interested in the dozen victims of terrorists in an African country, limiting themselves to stingy news items.
    This once again testifies to the policy of double standards of modern mass media: the whole world is bowing its head to the memory of the victims of terrorist attacks in France, but almost does not notice the same tragedies that have become cruel routine for Nigeria, Lebanon, Iraq and Syria.

    What for ? Indeed, Europe clearly thinks that Africa is far away and there is nothing to take from there, and it is troublesome to restore order there, although people there also have the right to life.

    Religious clashes occur between representatives of various religious groups, such as Muslims and Christians. The government of Nigeria is also involved in this conflict, regularly sending troops and police to stop the massacres. Northern Nigeria (where most Muslims are) has been living under Sharia law since 1999.
    In early January 2015, sixteen cities and villages in northern Nigeria in the state of Borno were burned by militants of the radical Islamist organization Boko Haram, who advocated the introduction of Sharia throughout the country.

    “Boko Haram” (West African Province of the Islamic State) is a radical Nigerian Islamic organization. Known since 2002, when Mohammed Yusuf became its leader. The main goal of the organization is to introduce Sharia throughout Nigeria and to eradicate the Western way of life.

    that is, this is the same Syrian scenario only on the African continent.

    The question is, well, what did they achieve? What did they want to prove by this? Okay, they killed their worthless lives, but for what? The relatives of the victims will curse them, and their table and the road to paradise are closed to them.

    It’s hard to say: to feel sorry for such people with their brains shut or accept as: 2 more terrorists less! All these are the fruits of irresponsible childbearing in well-known countries! Poverty, lack of education provide inexhaustible human opportunities for training suicides.
