"Church leaders say the attacks in the north were carried out directly by Islamist terror group Boko Haram, while those in central Nigeria were carried out at their instigation.

Press reports say Boko Haram have forced 8,000 Christians to flee, and many who remain are no longer able to worship in public. According to the US-based Hudson Institute Boko Haram has killed at least 900 Christians in the past year. Their stated aim is to impose fundamentalist Islamic law in Nigeria."

There's a world of ambiguity in that report.

Boko Haram are dedicated to removing non Muslims, and the non Muslims in those areas happen to be Christian. If they were Buddists, Hindu, Sikh or Shinto, they would be the victims and there would have been no thread from you decrying it.
