Even al-Qaida is outraged by the kidnapping of hundreds of Nigerian schoolgirls, 276 of whom are still missing and who were expected to be auctioned off as slaves in the name of Islam.
"Such news is spread to taint the image of the Mujahedeen," said one post on a website used by Islamic militants, The New York Times reports.
"There is news that they attacked a girls' school!" wrote another angry writer.
Various Islamic and jihad groups are distancing themselves from Boko Haram, the group that carried out the kidnapping, with even hard-line militants praying that God would reach out to the kidnappers and "hold them steady to the path" of Islam.
In the locally-spoken language of Hausa in northern Nigeria, Boko Haram means "Western education is sinful."

So the actual act of kidnapping them was okay; it's just the news reports that were meant to "taint".
Okay...
The religion of "peace" speaks out.
Please excuse my ignorance if I've missed something,but after reading everything available I saw no mention of the ransom.Yes,there was a ransom amount and conditions set regarding their safe return.That shortly followed the US pledge to get into it.Willing nations can pony up the 100 million demanded,get the girls home safe and then go after those responsible.As it stands,their death is imminent if excessive force is applied.
