Denigrating the US as sponsors of Boko Haram is counter-rational and ill-thought.
Terrorism is a black hole, one which the US has had it fair share of it's off shoots and still doing so (Remember last years boston marathon bombings) and as we speak the united states through it's covert agencies are still foiling attacks on US targets around the world.
In Africa alone three US embassy have been bombed namely (Kenya, Somalia and recently Libya) and several lives being lost. Even the UN HQ in abuja was bombed by Boko haram and US lives were also lost. Will the US be involved in such a bombing?
Did whoever wrote that article against the US remember that fighting terrorist around the world has cost the US it's todays dwindling economy due to large resources it had wasted to keep the world and her borders safe?
FACING THE REAL PROBLEM CALLED BOKO HARAM
As soon as corrupt northern governors (sic) politicians whom used religion as a means to canvass for votes by introducing sharia law in the north they awakened the spirit of the many idle and jobless folks in their region.
The Boko Haram ideology was mainly to institutionalize a less surreal style of islam via propagating a deep and extreme brand and hence the beginning of today's wonder.
It all started then in Yar Adua's regime and the then sick president gave a stern warning to the military to crush BH, he gave the instruction on his way to Saudi Arabia for treatment. The military and the police went extra-judicial and even Al jazeera captured images of public execution of BH members and even that of the founder. Those who survived the onslaught tacitly withdraw, sought the partnership and help of Al Qaeda in the Mahgreb (AQIM) and Al Qaeda in the Arabic Peninsula (AQAP) from whom they've gotten sophistication, training and above all enormous funding. You'll always want to know that AQIM and AQAP are based in countries that hold massive amounts of the worlds most needed resources (crude oil).
Fast forward to this day, don't you see corruption in everything that has a Nigerian or that is Nigeria?... From 1999 to this day what have they ever gotten right governance wise?... The only good rating Jonathan has are all verbal, ratings that cannot be seen on ground. EG, we are the best Economy in Africa, best investment destination and all worth not.
