| [Iran Press TV] Boko Haram ... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... Takfiri ...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who must be killed... forces of Evil have killed at least 30 people in raids on two villages in the crisis-stricken northeast of Nigeria. According to local sources, the holy warriors, on bikes and in vans, first attacked Kachifa village in the country's northeastern Borno province on Friday night and killed eight villagers then launched their second raid on Saturday morning against the nearby Yakshari village, where they slaughtered 22 others. Reports say that they claimed the lives of villagers by "slitting their throats before emptying food stores and taking away all the cattle." In their recent wave of terror acts in the volatile state, Boko Haram killed at least 85 people in a single village on January 30 and 58 more in a camp made for displaced people on February 9. According to an AFP count, Boko Haram forces of Evil have killed more than 1,650 people since the inauguration of Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari in May 2015. and claimed the lives of over 17,000 people since the start of their insurgency in Nigeria in 2009. They also forced over 2.6 million others to flee their homes since then.
