Short version: In case anyone wondered if Africa's largest oil producer was involved in a full fledged (religious) civil war here's your answer. President Goodluck Johnathan has placed the three largest Muslim areas under military rule and deployed major forces to the area. There were around 90 dead a few weeks ago when a village got torched during a gun battle between the government and Boko Haram, which is translated "western education is a sin."

For the record the US has military advisors training the Nigerian Army.

A quick read of the headline made me think this was in Nebraska and the revolution had started.

Muzzie murdering thugs have murdered thousands of Christians in Nigeria and not a word, not a word from the Marxist press on it.
