Os Islamistas da Nigéria: Boko Haram

A Nigéria é um gigantesco barril de pólvora, um amontoado de tribos e religiões que se detestam e lutam entre si. De tempos em tempos surgem terroristas, principalmente islamistas, como o Boko Haram. No último atentado eles explodiram um boteco e massacraram cerca de 25 pessoas. Como tantos outros grupos terroristas islamistas, eles são crias de madrassas financiadas com o dinheiro Saudita. Its followers are said to be influenced by the Koranic phrase which says: "Anyone who is not governed by what Allah has revealed is among the transgressors". Boko Haram promotes a version of Islam which makes it "haram", or forbidden, for Muslims to take part in any political or social activity associated with western society. This includes voting in elections, wearing shirts and trousers or receiving a secular education. Boko Haram regards the Nigerian state as being run by non-believers, even when the country had a Muslim president.
