ISREAL ADVOCACY GROUP REVEALS OBAMA’S PLANS WITH BUHARI TO SUPPRESS BIAFRA INDEPENDENCE
Either the Obama administration is ignorant of Buhari’s human rights
abuses against the Igbo in Biafra or they are complicit. Buhari has
often used Boko Haram as a foil to generate for arms and sympathy from
the West.
The United States has begun to
strengthen ties with Buhari ever since he attained power in Africa’s
most populous country. The previous President Goodluck Jonathan was a
friend of Israel and yet spurned the Obama administration.
With Buhari now as President the
tables have turn. Nigeria is now ruled by a former military leader and
an avowed Islamist. READ ALSO: Thanks to Buhari US to send attack
aircraft against Boko Haram Given Obama’s engagement and pasting over of
Buhari’s own abuses, little doubt remains that Obama knows of and
believes Buhari’s Islamist background is a strength.
Obama has also strengthened US
Special Forces throughout Africa, placing Nigeria as a priority. Yet,
given reports that Buhari has used weapons given to him to fight Boko
Haram on the Igbo in South East Nigeria as well as willfully encouraging
Fulani Tribesman to butcher unarmed Igbos, one wonders why improving
ties between the US government and Buhari are something to be cheered
from the perspective of the USA. Buhari has allowed the Fulani herdsman
to run wild and murder the Igbo.
Independence movements have grown,
and a near unanimous belief that Buhari is complicit pervades Biafra. At
the end of the day, the Obama foreign policy has actively sought out to
strengthen Islamic regimes at the expense of moderate actors, whether
they have been secular Islamic states, Sub-Saharan Christians, or
Israel.
By selling military armaments to
Buhari, the Obama administration has pitted itself against Israel’s
growing presence in the region and has hampered Israel’s ability to
militarily support an independent Biafra.
