Us Report On Boko Haram by VoodooDoll(m): 8:46pm On Nov 30, 2011
I just saw this on Twitter, note the use of caps are from the article.

http://homeland.house.gov/sites/homeland.house.gov/files/Boko%20Haram-%20Emerging%20Threat%20to%20the%20US%20Homeland.pdf

Extracts below:

FINDINGS:
1. BOKO HARAM HAS QUICKLY EVOLVED AND POSES AN EMERGING THREAT TO U.S.
INTERESTS AND THE U.S. HOMELAND.

2. BOKO HARAM HAS THE INTENT AND MAY BE DEVELOPING CAPABILITY TO
COORDINATE ON A RHETORICAL AND OPERATIONAL LEVEL WITH AL QAEDA IN THE
LANDS OF THE ISLAMIC MAGHREB (AQIM) AND AL SHABAAB.

3. BOKO HARAM’S EVOLUTION IN TARGETING AND TACTICS CLOSELY TRACKS THAT OF
OTHER AL QAEDA AFFILIATES THAT HAVE TARGETED THE U.S. HOMELAND, MOST
NOTABLY AL QAEDA IN THE ARABIAN PENINSULA (AQAP) AND TEHRIK-I-TALIBAN
PAKISTAN (TTP).

4. THE U.S. INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY LARGELY UNDERESTIMATED THE POTENTIAL
FOR AL QAEDA AFFILIATE GROUPS TO TARGET THE U.S. HOMELAND, WRONGLY
ASSESSING THEY HAD ONLY REGIONAL AMBITIONS AND THREATS AGAINST THE U.S.
HOMELAND WERE MERELY “ASPIRATIONAL.”

5. THE UNITED STATES SHOULD WORK WITH THE GOVERNMENT OF NIGERIA TO BUILD
COUNTERTERRORISM AND INTELLIGENCE CAPABILITY TO EFFECTIVELY COUNTER BOKO HARAM

Boots on the ground:?
INCREASE U.S. INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY COLLECTION ON BOKO HARAM:
The U.S. Intelligence Community must increase its intelligence collection on
Boko Haram, including human intelligence (HUMINT) and signals intelligence
(SIGINT). It must also enhance its liaison relationship with Nigerian security
services and help build their capacity to combat the threat posed by Boko Haram
to Nigerian and U.S. interests.

Like small, like small Nigeria is going to get the Middle-Eastern treatment.

The FG will hear word when officials and their families beging to be denied visas to the West. I have already heard from more than 2 folks back home how difficult it is to get U.S. visas these days.

I hope Mr. Beaf is listening and taking messages back to his boss Mr. Transformation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If he doesn't do anything concrete expect 2015 to be greeted with the sound of F-15s.

Retardeen has told us not to worry, it's all a hoarse and even if it's not, terrorism is not limited to Nigeria alone, that ought to make us feel better.

Never mind that our Senators are likely "very busy" deliberating more "pressing issues" like banning young girls from wearing g-strings, those are the kind of laws that are of utmost importance at the moment.

If Nigeria was a movie, it will likely be a fictional comedy.
