Boko Haram appears doing everything it can to spark a civil war in northern Nigeria. The central government's unwillingness or inability to respond to it leaves a vacuum that will lead to Boko Haram's targets defending themselves independently from a government that can't or won't.
If the government is trying to keep the peace or keep the situation from escalating by not engaging Boko Haram, it is actually setting up a situation that may see it lose control. "20 killed as Nigerian gunmen attack Christian mourners," by Mike Pflanz for the Telegraph, January 6:
It was the latest in a series of attacks blamed on radical Islamists who have vowed to wage a religious war on Nigeria's Christians and drive them from the country's majority-Muslim north.
This is a separate attack from the church shooting reported earlier today.
Several dozen Christians had come together for a meeting in a town hall in Mubi, in Adamawa state, to mark the deaths the day before of several people killed in the town.
Up to four gunmen surrounded the building and opened fire with Kalashnikov rifles, killing up to 20 people and leaving another 15 badly injured.
"We started hearing many gunshots through the windows," said Okey Raymond, 48, who was at the meeting.
"Everyone scampered for safety, but the gunmen chanted: 'God is great God is great' while shooting at us."
Mr Raymond said he hid under a table and escaped through a rear door. The gunmen also carried knives and machetes, the local police commissioner said.
No arrests have been made in the attack, and no one has claimed responsibility.
A purported spokesman for Islamist group Boko Haram claimed responsibility for the attack.
Mubi is close to the Cameroon border and is not in an area covered by a state of emergency declared by Goodluck Jonathan, Nigeria's president, following two weeks of sectarian violence.
The country's population of 160 million people is roughly divided between a mainly Muslim north and predominantly Christian south.
While Boko Haram has been blamed for increasingly deadly attacks for months, including an August suicide bombing of UN headquarters in Abuja that killed 25, the violence has taken on a different dimension with recent church attacks.
A wave of Christmas bombings that killed 49 people, most of them outside a Catholic church as services were ending, has provoked outrage in Nigeria and intensified fears of more sectarian clashes....
Be ready, boys and girls. It will happen here.

Here's another example of islamic Taqqiyah in canada to quickly blame a minority group for islamophobia and bigotry even prior to just one arrest to prove the fatih and Nationality of the Alleged vandal to the Mosque in Quebec.
Lets set the stage for this potential Bogus "Hate-Crime"
which may be to deflect the MSM from the global jihad slaughter by muslims to purge the ME of Christains after the Arab Springtime In the Middle East-4-Allah .
Canada has the latest (In a series ) of those islamic Honour killings or failed Terrosim plots by Muslims youths to slaughter 10'000 candian vicilians because of the Afghan mission after the taliban enable Muslim to slaughter 24 canadians on 9/11 amomng the 3000 civilians. Last December 6th was the anniversary of the 1989 Jihad slaughter of 14 females by Gamil Gharabi who died for Allah as in his suicide Letter once he complete his mission and turned the weapon on himself to be with allah and muhammed. BUT...the MSM finally admitted that gamil was a Muslims raised by Shariah Law in the home from his Algerian father that brought Shariah to canada, and this fact had forced CAIR-canada to scramble the PR staff to label it "Domestic-Violence" to appease the FemiNazi/men-haters in canada like Naomi Klein and Susan G Cole whoms raison-etre is lost once the hatred for men it taken away form their crusades.
But the recent islamic murdering of the 4 Brown-females via autocide/aquacide ( drowing by car) by the Afgahn males in the family has CAIR once again running to the CBC to assure canadians that is was "Domestic-Violence"
and "Had NOTHING to do with islam" .
This CBC news report makes me sick because it fails to pass the sniff-test for a factual event backed by a Police report and arrests to prove the motive.

The head of CAIR-canada has no quams calling the alleged vandalism a Hate-Crime and make a tacit endrosement of hatred towards jews by assuming that jews attack the Mosques. How odd because when a Jewish temple security video showed muslims fire-boming it( or the jewish cschool fire bombed by Msulims)and then the later vicious attack on Jews leaving the temple .....the same Quebec Police did not label any of it as a hate-crime but just plain vandalism by misguided youth (that of course misunderstood the quran and muhammed peace) .
Robert has seen enough bogus "Backlash" fears that never materialize , also, Robert could Chart the news stories for Jihad and mass-slaughters for non-muslims outside of the USA and then Chart the Bogus Vandalism or CAIR's islamophobia rantings to show how you could predict when CAIR will call the Rent-A-Victim hotline and run to the MSM to deflect westerners form the ugly face of islam .
If CAIR wants to brag about the 1 billion+ muslims outside of Canada and the USA , then they better hold-up the bad examples too because if the collective actions of masses of muslims have nothing to do with islam, the islam has nothing to do with muslims and it's just a rogue spin-off death-cult bent on murdering god children as a fa vour to allah.
Shame on CAIR-Canada for being so quick to blame the predictible Mosque attack on "The Joooooo's" and incite hatred which may result on MORE attacks on jews which CAIR will claim was caused by "The Joooooo's" for attacking the Mosque.
BTW
Dr.Sheema Khan from CAIR-canada was the goto person for the CBC and she had a Column in a Paper to spew the propaganda as a OP-ED which CAIR then posted on their website as factual and yet Khan wrote it and was employed at CAIR . The CBC has been in bed with the islamic-supramacy thugs for many years now ,and ever since the failed Terrosim plot to attack the CBC, the CBC lives in fear of muslim Jihadists and WILL NOT say anything negative about islam, they even chose to step softly on every Honour-killing case and now refuse to use the words Muslims,islam,terorism in the same story about muslim terrorist professing to be muslims that kill for allah.
Here's the peacful moderate Egyptian muslim in canada approving the murdering if israeli's that are over 18 years of age.
The CBC defended this weasel and a victim and that he was taken out of context or ambushed/tricked into telling the truth. Go to the 1:59 point and hear his own words, this guy is a Univ.Prof and will not condemn Hamas, he even told people that he was just repeating what the Palestinians in canada had told him. BUT, no Palestinian came forward to denouce this as a lie. Thus , Palestine House IS a hotbed for jew-bashers and Welfare-fraud for Bogus refugee claims as the media exposed where 300 Palestinians used that Address for where they lived while in canada except many went back to aid and abet hamas and Hizballah.

My gawd, the Police feared charging this bigot because it might start riots or jihad attacks. Hmmmm, so those peaceful
muslims and nice pro-hamas palestinians will become Violent???

Here's the CTV.CA version of the alleged islamophobic attack by The Jooooo's .
CTV is in bed with the sadui's and it was Ezra levant that exposed how a female CTV anchor equated canada's treatemnet of females as no better than the saudi's.
Saudi's have a vested interest in the Oil sands to stop it from supplying the West which will cut-off more Jihad plots like the 15 Saudi's on 9/11/01 as the funds dry-up too.
The saudi's funded a Mega-Mosque in Alberta which is said to be $10 million plus and yet msulims there claim victimhood status because there are only 1500 in that City where the mosque is going up. NOBODY has questioned where 1500 muslims get $10 million when CAIR keeps telling us muslims can't get jobs and are victims of racism.
The CTV has a more subtle Jew-bashing by only showing the images
to Infer it was The Joooooo's once again, and shame on the Imam when he convicts The-Joooo's as having done it while Qurbec has some of the most pro-Whahhabi sermons on fridays. How dare the CAIR rep pose the question about how will they explain this to their children when those same chidlren see the mass-slaughters by their Brothers in the ME to Christians and other muslims right on the same CBC and CTV reporting the Arab Spring charade run by the Brotherhood thugs.
CAIR has the luxury of blaming every mosque attack on infidels because the MSM is too stupid to see the scam, but I can assure you that when the Sunni-Shi'ite suicide-bombers start their battle on Western soils as we see in iraq, CAIR won't be able to sell that snake-oil anymore. In fact , watch how fast CAIR bans the Niqab and Burka from the Mosques when the suicide-bombers use them to enter the Mosques and slaughter 100's at a time via the suicide-vest imported from gaza or from the Tamil Tiger suporters.
I tried to be fair right after the 9/11 attack, by it's those darn muslims givng islam a bad name and hold up the Quruan to cite verses by Muhammed to justify the jihad slaughters.
Just a follow-up note about how CAIR coaches msulims to exercise the civil Rights and remain silent to the Police for any allaged terrorism plot.
Lets join Mr.Hooper and and inform non-muslims of their Civil Rights to not inform the Police of terrorism plots
or terror cells about to attack islamic structure or muslims .
Sounds fair to me, then Hooper can go on CNN and say if he agrees with that stance.

Is there any effective response that would not be describable as genocide, and involve the deaths of lots of non-combatants?
According to Danish Media there are fears of a "secterian conflict" in Nigeria, ie when and not until the Christians reply in kind. Bleh.
I can't wait for the BBC's usual "the motivation for the attack is unknown" schtick...
