I went over months ago the fraud of the ladies regarding the videos, and you now must understand that all of the staged and scripted acting jobs are nothing but propaganda, pure and simple. It's all illusion and imagery to support a certain narrative and once you know who are the enablers and what is the plan, it's no longer funny. In fact, that it is being flogged once again is actually quite pathetic.
"Nigeria militant video" by Sunday Alamba and Michelle Faul | Associated Press October 04, 2014
LAGOS, Nigeria — Boko Haram, the extremist group in Nigeria, has published a video that shows charred plane wreckage and the beheading of a man identified as a pilot of a missing Nigerian Air Force jet, bolstering the group’s claims that it shot down a fighter plane.
That not very nice.
The video also allegedly features Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau, a man Nigeria’s military has twice claimed to kill — first in 2009 and again last year. Two weeks ago the military said they had killed a Shekau look-alike who had posed in the group’s videos.
These guys are in and out of the grave so fast they have your head spinning.
‘‘Here I am, alive, and I will remain alive until the day Allah takes away my breath,’’ the man says in the Hausa language. ‘‘Even if you kill me . . . it will not stop us imposing Islamic rule. . . . We are still in our Islamic state, reigning and teaching the Koran.”
The United States still has a $7 million bounty on Shekau’s head.
In the video, the man identified as Shekau says Boko Haram is implementing strict Sharia law in areas of northeast Nigeria under its control. Examples are shown, including the stoning death of a man apparently accused of adultery; the amputation of the hand of a young man accused of theft; the lashings of a man and what appears to be a girl covered in a hijab.
The video ends with burned-out plane parts in rugged bush. Two pilots and an Alpha jet have been missing since Sept. 11 when it left the northeastern town of Yola on a bombing mission against Boko Haram.
I look at it and I think what masterfully crafted piece of psyops propaganda hitting on all mind-manipulating levers conventional myths have pout in your head. Missing planes, 9/11, Islamic terrorists, beheadings, you getting the picture. And Nigeria has oil!
The video shows a kneeling man in a camouflage vest with his right hand in a sling, with a fighter hovering over him with an ax, which is later used in the beheading.
Speaking in English, the victim identifies himself as a wing commander in the Nigerian Air Force and says he was undertaking a mission in Kauri area of northeast Borno state.
‘‘We were shot down and our aircraft crashed,’’ he says. ‘‘To this day I don’t know the whereabouts of my second pilot.’’
That calm message before his throat gets cut?

Time to put away the knives:
"Nigeria announces cease-fire with Boko Haram" by Chika Oduahand Michelle Faul | Associated Press October 18, 2014
ABUJA, Nigeria — Nigeria’s government said Islamic extremists from Boko Haram have agreed to an immediate cease-fire, but many people expressed doubts Friday about a development that could end an insurgency that has killed thousands and left hundreds of thousands homeless in Africa’s most populous nation.
I'm seeing it as a crock of crap even though I hope it is real.
The fate of more than 200 missing schoolgirls abducted by the insurgents six months ago still is being negotiated, a Defense Ministry spokesman, Major General Chris Olukolade, said.
Yuh-huh. They were sent home after the shoot, Nigeria claimed they were released then immediately retracted under U.S. pressure -- after which more drone bases and overflights were allowed for Amerikan military forces, hm.
But President Francois Hollande of France welcomed the ‘‘good news’’ and told a news media conference in Paris that the girls’ release ‘‘could happen in the coming hours and days.’’ France has been involved in negotiations that led to the release of several of its citizens who had been kidnapped by Boko Haram in Cameroon.
Neither Hollande nor Nigerian government officials gave any details.
Boko Haram negotiators ‘‘assured that the schoolgirls and all other people in their captivity are all alive and well,’’ Mike Omeri, the government’s spokesman on the insurgency, told a news conference.
The chief of defense staff, Air Marshal Alex Badeh, announced the truce Friday and ordered his troops to immediately comply with the agreement.
‘‘Already, the terrorists have announced a cease-fire in furtherance of their desire for peace. In this regard, the government of Nigeria has, in similar vein, declared a cease-fire,’’ Omeri said.
I'm wondering which CIA assets or mercenary units are going to be activated to f*** this up.
But there was no immediate word from Boko Haram, which limits its public engagement to video announcements by its leader, Abubakar Shekau. Last year, when a government minister involved in the negotiations announced an agreement, the group quickly published a video of Shekau denying it. He said that whomever the government had negotiated with did not speak for him and that he would never talk to infidels.
I no longer trust or believe videos of Islamic terrorists that are cited by my Zionist-controlled war pre$$. Sorry.
The United States, which had sent a team including hostage negotiators to help free the girls, could not independently confirm a cease-fire, State Department deputy spokeswoman Marie Harf told a news conference in Washington.
Uh-huh.
Boko Haram — the group’s nickname means ‘‘education is sinful’’ — drew international condemnation with the April kidnapping of 276 girls and young women at a boarding school in the remote northeastern town of Chibok. Dozens escaped in the first couple of days, but 219 remain missing.
It could take days for word of a cease-fire to reach Boko Haram’s fighters, which are broken into several groups, with some in neighboring Chad, Cameroon, and Niger.
Omeri confirmed there had been direct negotiations this week about the release of the abducted girls. Another official said the talks took place in Chad with Danladi Ahmadu, who was identified as the Saudi Arabia-based secretary general of Boko Haram. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to talk to reporters.
OMG, the SAUDIS are SHELTERING Boko Haram!!!
That just confirmed all my suspicions about this group -- if it even exists at all! OMG!
But two people involved in previous negotiations with the extremists said they had never heard of Ahmadu. Both spoke on condition their names were not published because of the sensitivity of the issue.
Uh-huh.
Doubts also were expressed on Twitter by Ahmad Salkida, a Saudi-based Nigerian journalist living in self-exile because of his links with Boko Haram leaders.
Oh, doubts on Twitter! HA-HA-HA!
He suggested the cease-fire announcement was a political ploy as President Goodluck Jonathan prepares to announce his bid for reelection in February.
Noooooooooo!
The chief government negotiator, Ambassador Hassan Tukur, said the Boko Haram representatives he had talked with had provided goodwill gestures by freeing hostages.
In an interview with the BBC, Tukur said Boko Haram last week had followed through on a promise to release a number of its kidnap victims, including Chinese construction workers taken in Cameroon, and the wife of a vice prime minister of Cameroon.
This just gets more and more ridiculous as one constantly asks cui bono?
Boko Haram had been demanding the release of detained extremists in exchange for the girls. Jonathan originally said he could not agree to a prisoner swap.
The Bring Back Our Girls protest movement called for confirmation of the truce from the president.
The principal of the school from which the girls were abducted, Asabe Kwambura, had mixed feelings about the news. ‘‘If what we hear is true, I will be the happiest person in the world to see these girls of mine return home in one piece,’’ she told the Associated Press, “but many of us are still forced to doubt’’ the government.
I know the feeling, and I doubt what I see is true in my Bo$ton Globe. Sorry.
Jonathan told the United Nations last month that the extremists have killed 13,000 civilians and hundreds of thousands have been displaced, many of them farmers, causing a food emergency where the insurgency is centered.
A good way to control people or create strife and conflict if you look at it the way of a war-planner of empire.
In August, Boko Haram began seizing and holding territory where it declared a caliphate.
The African version of ISIS!
But the tide appears to have turned in recent weeks, with the military retaking some towns and reporting to have killed hundreds of insurgents.
Wow, another massacre of ghosts and goblins that are everywhere and nowhere, control everything yet nothing, and fade away anytime organized military come near, yes.

Let the doubting begin!
"Doubts arise over validity of Nigeria’s truce with militants" by Haruna Umar and Chika Oduah | Associated Press October 23, 2014
MAIDUGURI, Nigeria — Days after Nigeria’s military raised hopes with the announcement that Islamic extremists had agreed to a cease-fire, Boko Haram is still fighting and there is no word on the fate of the 219 schoolgirls held hostage for six months.
Officials had said talks would resume in neighboring Chad this week, but there was no confirmation that those negotiations had resumed by Wednesday.
Oh, that reminds me, I never take peace talk or truces seriously when they appear in my war paper. Told there were talks with the Taliban once, and let's face it: any talks with "terrorists" are only talks with themselves, and by that I mean the self-created, self-serving groups that have been set up and organized by western intelligence agencies and promoted by the ma$$ media propaganda organs. It's over, guys.
The official silence raises many questions, especially since Boko Haram’s leader Abubakar Shekau has not confirmed that a truce has been agreed.
Not with me.
Relatives of the girls abducted from a boarding school in Chibok said they are confused but trying to be hopeful.
I'm neither.
‘‘Things are still sketchy with lots of holes and varying statements,’’ Allen Manasseh, a brother of one of the missing schoolgirls, said by telephone.
I didn't know Nigerians received copies of the Bo$ton Globe.
Manasseh said he relentlessly scours the news headlines to find out when his sister, Maryam, may return home.
I do it every morning.
Foreign Minister Aminu Wali on Tuesday said, ‘‘I can say with some optimism, cautious optimism, that we’re are moving toward a situation where we’d be able to, in the very near future, to be able to get back our girls.’’
Wali spoke at a news conference in Berlin of ‘‘the possibility of having total cessation of hostilities.’’
Now you are getting my hopes up.
Despite the cease-fire announced by the military on Friday, the Islamic insurgents have attacked two villages and a town in the northeast and raised their flag in a fourth village.
So much for a cease fire.
People who escaped this week from Bama, a town in a part of northeastern Nigeria where Boko Haram has declared an Islamic caliphate, say hundreds of residents are being detained for allegedly breaking the group’s strict version of Shariah law.
Residents who got out of Bama said so many people have been detained by Boko Haram that the local jail is overcrowded and houses are being used as makeshift prisons.
Many young men have been forced to join Boko Haram, and those who refuse are killed, said those who ran away.

Time to get the ladies involved again:
"Boko Haram abducts more women, despite claims of Nigeria cease-fire" by Adam Nossiter | New York Times October 24, 2014
Already viewing this as a pure, 100% stinking steam pile. Sorry.
DAKAR, Senegal — Scores of young women have been kidnapped in new abductions by Islamist militants in Nigeria, according to local journalists, a Roman Catholic bishop, and news reports, indicating that Boko Haram’s campaign of violence is continuing despite official reports of a cease-fire with the group.
The kidnappings took place Saturday in a mountain village near the border with Cameroon, a Boko Haram stronghold, said Bishop Stephen Mamza, who is from the area but now officiates in the state capital, Yola. The bishop described a situation much like the one in April, when more than 200 schoolgirls were taken from Chibok in neighboring Borno state, a kidnapping that attracted worldwide attention. The fate of those girls still is unresolved, despite government claims that a deal for their release is in the works.
This is sad. For the war propagandists in the mouthpiece media and government to thing this will fly is truly and pathetically sad.
So Nigeria wanting peace with its population has led to a surge in terror attacks, huh?
In the latest kidnapping, residents told the bishop that scores of gunmen on motorcycles stormed their village, Garta, on Saturday. Boko Haram has operated with near impunity for months in the remote mountainous region, with occasional reprisals from Nigeria’s military.
The gunmen torched houses in the village, slit the throats of four men, and went house-to-house searching for young women, eventually taking away around 60, according to the bishop and local news reports.
“Those who were abducted are from my hometown,” Mamza said by phone Thursday evening. “Of course it is credible. This is actually what is happening on a daily basis, only it is not reported.” The bishop said most of those abducted by the Islamists were Christians.
What an odd thing to say. Why would anyone doubt it?
The Islamic-Christian angle we have seen before as well, and jwho benefits? No longer falling for that, either. People who have lived together and intermarried for centuries all of sudden.... nah, no.
Last week, government and military officials were quoted in the Nigerian media as saying that a cease-fire deal had been struck with the militants, as well as one for the release of the girls abducted from Chibok.
My paper is full of that $hit.
But the deal was never confirmed by a known Boko Haram spokesman. And since then, there have been several violent attacks in northern Nigeria and numerous killings attributed to Boko Haram, in addition to the latest abductions.
The official announcements of last week were greeted with broad skepticism in Nigeria, where the government has regularly promised a resolution to an insurgency now stretching into its sixth year.
We are all Nigerians now.
“The Boko Haram have not observed any cease-fire,” Mamza said Thursday.
Neither has the U.S. or Israel.

"Dozens more girls abducted by Nigerian extremists" Associated Press October 28, 2014
MAIDUGURI, Nigeria — Dozens of girls and young women are being abducted by Islamic extremists in northeast Nigeria, raising doubts about an announced cease-fire and the hoped-for release of 219 schoolgirls held captive since April.
On Oct. 17, Nigeria’s military said a cease-fire had been agreed to with Boko Haram and ordered troops to immediately comply. Officials said the cease-fire would lead to the speedy release of the girls kidnapped from a boarding school in the remote northeastern town of Chibok on April 15.
But there have been a number of kidnappings and battles since then that call into question the cease-fire.
At least 70 young women and teenage girls and boys have been kidnapped in Borno and Adamawa states since Oct. 18, according to local government chairman Shettima Maina and residents who spoke on condition of anonymity because they feared retribution.
The insurgents also launched several attacks since the cease-fire was announced. On Friday a multinational force engaged in fierce fighting to regain control of Abadam, a town held by Boko Haram on the western shores of Lake Chad.
Deeper and deeper.
Ten days after the announcement, Boko Haram had not indicated that it has agreed to a truce.
Nigeria’s minister of foreign affairs, Aminu Wali, said Monday that Boko Haram has denied recent kidnappings and suggested it might be the work of dissidents wanting to break the cease-fire.
That could be the rogue CIA operation I have been referring to -- if any of this is real, that is.
He said the release of the Chibok girls is part of ongoing cease-fire negotiations, which would not be affected by the latest abductions.

Finally, some GOOD NEWS:
"42 days after last case, WHO declares Nigeria Ebola free; EU officials seek $1.27b in aid for West Africa" by Nick Cumming-Bruce | New York Times October 21, 2014
GENEVA — The World Health Organization declared Nigeria, Africa’s most populous nation, officially free of Ebola infections on Monday, calling the outcome the triumphal result of “world class epidemiological detective work.”
What is the antidote?
The announcement came 42 days after the last reported infection in Nigeria’s outbreak, twice the maximum incubation period for the Ebola virus.
In Luxembourg on Monday, the European Union committed itself to step up efforts toward getting $1.27 billion in aid to fight Ebola in West Africa and rejected the idea of halting direct flights coming from the region.
The Nigerian response to Ebola was cited by the WHO as an example of the measures other countries can take to halt the spread of the epidemic, which is concentrated in the West African countries of Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone.
“This is a spectacular success story that shows that Ebola can be contained,” WHO said in a report on its website. But it also expressed caution that Nigeria cannot relax its defenses against the deadly virus.
It just occurred to me that the success also keeps out U.S. troops.
Is that what Nigeria did wrong, and is that why girls are again being kidnapped (or so I am told)?
More than 9,000 people have become infected and more than 4,500 people have died in the epidemic, and the number of infections is still doubling every month, WHO has reported.
Although infection rates have slowed in some districts of the three worst-affected countries, the organization has also reported the spread of the disease to new areas, including districts of Guinea bordering Ivory Coast.
*******
Still, Nigeria, like Senegal, which was declared free of Ebola on Friday, is susceptible to new cases by virtue of its proximity to the West African epicenter, health authorities warn.
Also sits on gobs of oil.
Nigeria also is at risk of becoming a victim of its success. WHO’s representative in Nigeria, Rui Gama Vaz, said Ebola patients in the epicenter may now seek entry to Nigeria in an effort to get lifesaving care.
“Many desperate people in heavily affected countries believe that Nigeria must have some especially good — maybe even ‘magical’ — treatments to offer,” a WHO statement said. Nigeria, with 160 million people, is the most populous country in Africa.
What remedies are they marketing, and is that why they are in trouble??
EU foreign ministers set off a week of action on the Ebola crisis on Monday with a pledge ‘‘to play an active role in enhancing the international response’’ to the disease. The response so far has been insufficient to contain the deadly virus in West Africa.
That's another reason I'm not trusting any of this. Leaders hype false threats and ignore real ones.
Prime Minister David Cameron of Britain wants a two-day summit of the 28 EU leaders this week to reach the $1.27 billion aid threshold, and agree on topics from more financial aid to common repatriation procedures, more Ebola treatment facilities, and better training for health care workers, the Associated Press reported.
‘‘It’s time to act now . . . if we want to limit the amount of cases to an amount that is controllable,’’ said Robero Bertollini, the WHO representative to the EU.
So far, the overall anti-Ebola total for the EU, including EU national contributions, stands at $640 million, with Britain contributing $204 million. The Netherlands also promised to send a frigate to West Africa to help, matching a similar contribution from Britain.
‘‘Money is very important, equipment is very important, staff is very important,’’ said EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton.
Still, EU ministers rejected the idea of scrapping flights from West Africa to keep the virus out of Europe.
‘‘Instead of going to Brussels or to France, [West African] passengers would go to Dubai or elsewhere and come in from there,’’ Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius of France said. ‘‘We would no longer be able to check anything.’’
That's a weak, lame-ass excuse!
In Spain, officials said nursing assistant Teresa Romero appears to have beaten Ebola but will not be considered virus-free until she is tested again Tuesday. She was among those treating a Spanish missionary who died of Ebola on Sept. 25.
The medical container she was brought back in was empty. It's all fake.
Officials also said 15 others linked to Romero had no Ebola symptoms.
