Thank you very much, @abasinkanga. I'm very touched that you took an in-depth look at my post, both in my art and my writing.
Interestingly, I suppose, I'm not an American citizen at all, but rather a Canadian in Toronto, not terribly far from the border. I am certainly frustrated on the way matters have been handled, as I feel that international misgivings due to the behaviour of one world leader impacts not just that country, but so many more. Personally, I fear the pressure my own government is finding itself under to be involved in a potential nuclear arms' race.

I have to admit that my knowledge about the unrest in Nigeria is very limited, but I will do some reading on it soon to educate myself.

And I will take a look at your link as soon as I can, too. :)
