        If you read the articles on this it sounds more like the US told Nigeria it was going to bomb people and to just deal with it. Even Nigerias response to the bombing does not strongly indicate they requested the US to act.

        Edit: Fixed spelling.

          Yep, most likely. Nigerians probably just can’t afford to say that they didn’t have a part.

        If we taxpayers are paying to airstrike people at the very least I want to see a list of names, what crimes they are accused of, and a report on the results of the strike including collateral damage.
