"At the direction of the White House, the U.S. military will send a small team of experts to the embassy in Abuja, Nigeria's capital, to form an interagency "coordination and assessment cell" that will work the Nigerian government to locate and free the teenagers who were abducted from their school by Boko Haram last month, Pentagon spokesman Col. Steve Warren told reporters."
"The U.S. military team will consist of fewer than 10 uniformed military personnel, who will advise and assist the Nigerians with communications, logistics, and intelligence, according to Warren."
"Warren would not say whether the U.S. will send surveillance drones to Nigeria to search for the girls, but did say that the "we are discussing with the Nigerian government any type of information sharing arrangementsthat we can - that we can agree to."
"The Defense Department does not have any intention of using American special operations forces against Boko Haram to liberate their captives, according to Warren."
Wow! I'll just bet that Boko Haram is sick with fear over this.
