Boko Haram Actually Kills More People In Terror Attacks Than ISIS

After nearly 300 schoolgirls were kidnapped by Boko Haram in 2014, the world reacted in outrage, coalescing around the hashtag # Bring Back Our Girls.

Every week, we bring you one overlooked aspect of the stories that made news in recent days. Did you notice the media forgot all about another story's basic facts? Tweet @TheWorldPost or let us know on our Facebook page.
This week, the world’s deadliest terror group wrought extraordinary carnage on crowds of people going about their daily lives.
The fruit and vegetable market in the northern Nigerian city of Yola was packed with customers buying food for dinner when a suicide bomber struck on Tuesday evening, killing at least 34 people. "The ground near my shop was covered with dead bodies," Alhaji Ahmed told Reuters.
Then on Wednesday, as afternoon prayers approached, two young women strapped with explosives detonated at a busy mobile phone market in the nearby city of Kano. At least 15 people were killed in the twin blasts, according to The Associated Press.

Both bombings are widely believed to be the work of Nigerian militant group Boko Haram, which rarely claims responsibility for specific attacks but has waged a bloody six-year insurgency in the region.
new report this week found Boko Haram has overtaken the so-called Islamic State as the “most deadly terror group in the world.”
The Global Terrorism Index said Boko Haram killed more people -- 6,644 -- in terror attacks during 2014 than any other group. The Islamic State, which is based in Syria and Iraq and this week brought its deadly violence to BaghdadBeirut and Paris, follows closely behind, at 6,073 deaths through terrorism in 2014.
In March, Boko Haram released a recording pledging allegiance to the Islamic State, but the extent of any cooperation between the groups is unclear. Together, the two organizations were responsible for 51 percent of all terrorism-related deaths around the world last year, the report said.
The Global Terrorism Index is an annual report by the New York City-based Institute for Economics and Peace. It tracks global deaths from terror attacks, which it defines as “an intentional act of violence or threat of violence by a non-state actor.”
The index distinguishes between terror attacks and battlefield deaths, and notes that the majority of people killed by the Islamic State die in combat, including at least 20,000 people in 2014.
The total death toll of Boko Haram violence is also thought to be higher than the terror-related deaths tallied in the report. The highly respected Nigeria Security Tracker, compiled by the U.S.-based Council on Foreign Relations, found that over 6,000 people were killed in clashes between Boko Haram and Nigerian forces in 2014.
Boko Haram emerged in northeast Nigeria around 2002, espousing an extreme form of Islam and capitalizing on alienation and poverty in this region of the oil-rich country. After a series of deadly clashes with the Nigerian government, the group launched a violent insurgency in 2009, which has left thousands dead and parts of northeastern Nigeria in ruins.
Last year, Boko Haram escalated attacks, capturing towns and villages in the northeast and taking hundreds captive. In one incident, which drew worldwide condemnation, the militants stormed a boarding school in Chibok in April 2014 and seized nearly 300 schoolgirls. At one point in 2014, the militants controlled a territory approximately the size of Belgium. Meanwhile, a relentless stream of suicide bombings has terrorized cities around the country, many of them using women and young girls who may be coerced into carrying out attacks.
From 2013 to 2014, the death toll from terrorism-related attacks climbed dramatically in Nigeria, increasing by 300 percent. The Global Terrorism Index called the rise “the largest increase in terrorist deaths ever recorded by any country.”

ZAINA ERHAIM OF SYRIA NAMED 2015 WINNER, Reporters Without Borders (RSF), and Agence France-Presse are pleased to announce that Syrian journalist is the 2015.

Journalists without borders gives the Syrian Zaina Erhaim the journalists award of 2015 for here bravery and courage keeping reporting from inside Syria the country as considered the most dangerous place to be in 
All love for you Zaina you doing great journalism and writing history as well


Zaina Erhaim, 30, currently lives and works in Aleppo, Syria. Over the last two years, she has trained about 100 citizen reporters from inside Syria, approximately a third of them women, in print and TV journalism, and has helped establish many of the new emerging independent
newspapers and magazines in the war torn country. Erhaim is also the Syria project coordinator for the Institute for War and Peace Reporting (IWPR), an international organization that support journalists in countries undergoing conflict, crisis, or transition. Many of Ms. Erhaim’s students, from all walks of life, have been published in major international news outlets.
Zaina Erhaim is a force multiplier of journalistic values in a country torn by violence and irrationality,” said Camille Mackler, the Peter Mackler Award’s project director. “We salute her courage, upholding professional ethics and bringing them to the service of those left to write history.”
Syria is currently ranked 177th out of 180 countries in the World Press Freedom Index published by Reporters Without Borders.
Upon learning that she had received the award, Ms. Erhaim said "when living in horror for all these years, it is normal to feel abandoned and forget that there is someone listening or reading to our stories and that she or he actually cares. It is such initiatives that make me feel that I, with my Syrian colleagues, do matter, and that our hard work is appreciated and it gives power to go on in my daily surviving battle."
Delphine Halgand, director of Reporters Without Borders – USA said “by awarding Zaina Erhaim, we pay tribute to the courage of those in Syria who fight for the freedom of information. Syria is the deadliest country for journalists since 2011. Facing harsh oppression, Erhaim is an outstanding journalist and journalism teacher
"Zaina Erhaim has done extraordinary work both in training local residents and journalists who have become nearly the only first-hand source of news on the Syrian conflict and in supporting Syrian women living under siege.” Said David Millikin, Agence France-Presse’s director for North America. “She embodies the ideals which the Peter Mackler Award was created to honor."

نجمه باگڙي گذريل آڪٽوبر جي پهرين هفتي ۾ پنهنجي ماءُ سان ملڻ لاءِ پهتي هندو پاڙي ، گڏاپ ٽائون ڪراچي. خوش خوش، ميندي لڳل هٿن سان پنهنجي پاڙي ۾ وئي ته وري واپس نه وري.

هيءَ تصوير آهي 20 ساله نجمه باگڙيءَ جي. نجمه گڏ بيٺل آهي پنهنجي مڙس راجيش سان. سندن هلندڙ سال
ئي شادي ٿي هئي، ڪجهه مهينا اڳ. شاديءَ بعد نجمه باگڙي گذريل آڪٽوبر جي پهرين هفتي ۾ پنهنجي ماءُ سان ملڻ لاءِ پهتي هندو پاڙي ، گڏاپ ٽائون ڪراچي. خوش خوش، ميندي لڳل هٿن سان پنهنجي پاڙي ۾ وئي ته وري واپس نه وري. ڪجهه ڏينهن بعد سندس ماءُ کي مليو منگهي پير جي مدرسي جو هڪ ڪاغذ، جنهن ۾ نجمه مسلمان به ڄاڻايل هئي ته، شاهد پٺاڻ سان شادي ڪيل به!.
اغو جو ڪيس به داخل ٿيو سهراب ڳوٺ ٿاڻي تي، نجمه باگڙيءَ کي پوليس آڏو پيش به ڪيو ويو، جنهن پوليس کي پاڻ سان ٿيندڙ ظلم ۽ زبردستيءَ کان آگاهه به ڪيو!، پر مُسلم انصاف فقط مسلمانن لاءِ هوندو آهي، سو باگڙين جو ڇا وڃي انصاف سان!
نجمه ڪجهه ڏينهن اڳ ڏياريءَ جي ڏينهن به اغوا ڪندڙ شاهد پٺاڻ جي گهران ڀڄي ماءُ وٽ پهتي، پر هٿياربند جوابدار سندس پوِيان ڊوڙندا آيا ۽ کيس وارن کان گهليندا واپس کڻي ويا.
نجمه باگڙياڻيءَ جي امڙ نينا اڄ مون وٽ آفيس ۾ ملڻ آئي ۽ سڄي وارتا ٻڌائيندي چيو :”شايد سندس ڌيءُ قتل ٿي چڪي آهي، اغوا ڪندڙ روز هٿيار کڻي ڪيس واپس وٺڻ جون ڌمڪيون ڏيندڙ هئا، جنهن ڪري پنهنجو گهر ڇڏي چڪي آهي“..
اسلام ته هڪ مئل ڪتي کي به انصاف ڏيڻ جي دعويٰ ٿو ڪري، نجمه باگڙي، سندس مڙس راجيش ۽ سندس امڙ نينا کي ڪير انصاف ڏيندو...!؟
