country every bit as foreign and remote as iraq and afghanistan, countries like burundi, uganda and senegal, where american troops have already been training government forces. or chad and niger, where american drones have been flying surveillance missions, hunting for al qaeda affiliates and other radical islamist groups. >> i believe we must shift our counter-terrorism strategy to more effectively partner with country where's terrorist networks seek a foothold. >> reporter: sending american soldiers to train local troops has one major hitch-- countries in which terrorist groups take root are frequently run by corrupt, unpopular, weak, or incompetent governments. one example-- american efforts to train libyan government forces in the wake of the fall of muammar gaddafi have been put on hold as the country descends into an ark. instead of training libyan troops, u.s. forces are standing by aboard the amphibious ship "baton" awaiting an order to evacuate all americans from the country. another example-- u.s. drones are helping the nigerian military search for those kidnapped school girls, ev

what about the people in the communities they come to, for example, in senegal or bangladesh about whatppens to them? >> i am sure there are stories as well. the reports focused on what happened to the children who are missionaries but i'm sure there were even more untold stories about the children who were living there who were in many ways much more vulnerable. >> in some of your writings you write about the issue of patriarchy and its relationship to religious thinking. any sense on your part that there are structural or philosophical directions in the church that allows this kind of stuff to be covered up? obviously,ly, and not all very conservative christians or all members of the self-described patriarchy movement will be abuses, but reading all of these reports and speaking to dozens of people, it becomes clear, grace's assertion, that a main factor contributing to the abuse and silencing of victims is authoritarian structures that focus much more on rigid rule following, on hierarchies within a church or community, on the subordinate role of women and children. when you have all

joining me on skype from senegal.question, what impact do you think naming the girls can be? can it put them in more harm's way? >> i think the risk comes when the girls come back, when the girls escape or rescued because the problem when boko haram kidnapped girls and young women in the past they have often returned either violated or some even with young children or pregnant. when these young girls and women get back they are isolated and ostracized by their communities. the families sometimes have to send them away to bigger cities to get away from the stigma. it's very difficult for them to come back and to be back in their home communities and for all of their neighbors to know that they were with boko haram members. >> our ann curry asked john kerry via twitter, do you have any confidence all or some of the girls can be found? the secretary of state responded, too early to conclude. team arriving, very difficult situation. determined to do everything we can to help. what do you make of that exchange? and what is
