You are being very gullible to believe the propaganda that Boko Haram, like everything bad in the world, is the fault of the evil West.

Al Jazeera two weeks ago,
" The movement has established supply routes and funding sources. Caches of recovered Boko Haram weapons have been traced to Libya, and Ansaru, at least, has established links with AQIM and Al-Shabab. "
