U.S. forces conducted a hostage rescue operation during the early hours of 31 October in Northern Nigeria to recover an American citizen held hostage by a group of armed men. This American citizen is safe and is now in the care of the U.S. Department of State. No U.S military personnel were injured during the operation," Pentagon spokesman Jonathan Hoffman said in a statement.

If you're kidnapped, they go all out to rescue you.
In Nigeria, you as much as protest, they gun you down, seize your corpse, and deny your existence for all eternity..

I don't believe this news one bit

Because that kind of operation is supposed to be classified....

Nigerian gov and military has been compromised so I don't believe the US can release that kind of vital information...

And if its true.. They will come silently and execute the mission silently.

The only thing they are good at is oppressing civilians.
