Video news report on MEND

Nigerian rebels in the Niger Delta might have been responsible for the independence day bombs in Abuja. Al Jazeera offers a two-minute video report from a camp in the delta. Whether the whole organization is as well-equipped and as well-organized as the one in the video is open to question, but the pictures are powerful supplements to what we read about MEND. And proof that there's plenty of money to buy guns, boats, uniforms, etc.

Thanks to Jeremy Weate at Naijablog for pointing out this news report.
