| [Iran Press TV] The 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... 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... murderous Moslems have attacked a town in Nigeria's northeastern state of Borno near the border with Cameroon ...a long, narrow country that fills the space between Nigeria and Chad on the northeast, CAR to the southeast. Prior to incursions by Boko Haram nothing ever happened there... , killing nearly a dozen people. The killings took place after hundreds of Boko Haram snuffies stormed the town of Gamboru, located some 700 kilometers (434 miles) north of the capital, Abuja, following the withdrawal of about 2,500 Chadian troops from the Nigerian territory last week. "Boko Haram gunnies returned on cycle of violences to Gamboru yesterday (Wednesday)... and rubbed out eight people," Mudi Dankaka, a local of the nearby Cameroonian town of Fotokol, said. He added that three more people were killed on Thursday. Another Fotokol resident, Umar Ari, said Nigerian forces have not been spotted in Gamboru, leaving the area exposed and with no security presence since the Chadian troops' pullback. Boko Haram Takfiris had earlier massacred dozens of women in Bama -- a city of about 200,000 people located just 75 kilometers (45 miles) northwest of Borno state's capital, Maiduguri. |

| #3 I give senseless slaughter a slight edge, size of the pay gap might come into play tho. |

| #2 Well, yes, Joe. But how does that compare with the catastrophe known as "pay disparity?" |
