Hi Andria. I hate to see you hanging by suspenders with no response to your questions, so here I am. To the question of whether the rest of the world should get involved in the search for the missing girls in Nigeria... my answer is a definite NO! Intervention would simply add one more war to the horrific list of wars. Foreign (particularly Western) intervention in the Middle East has led to a million deaths, and we should learn from that. Not that our corrupt politicians WILL learn from it, but we should try to peersuade them to shut up and sit down.
I write as a longtime human-rights advocate, and passionate supporter of HUMAN rights as the broader and more admirable alternative to the narrower CIVIL (tribal) rights. And the less achievable alternative, unfortunately.
It would be nice if we could get a debate going on the difference between human and civil rights, but we probably shouldn't hold our breath!
