The Wall Street Journal Strikes Again. There seems to be an all out media war against the Nigerian state. Like i have stated in previous threads, each time the Nigerian military begin making significant gains Nigeria comes under a barrage of attacks. 
It used to be Amnesty International. Now you have the Wall Street Journal, a business/stock brokerage focused entity chiming into Nigeria's war on terror. It doesnt get stranger than this.
Lets see. Record gains recorded by the military. Timely arrival of state of the art weapons system, over 15,000 insurgents forced to surrender. The world's deadliest terrorist group reduced to the level of criminality. By and large progress has been made. None of this matters.
When terrorists have their back against the wall what do they do? They go after soft targets. Targets that are impossible to protect 24/7. With each cowardly attacks the media takes over, tacitly incentivising the abduction of civilians because of the rave reviews that follows.
If this continues the the insurgents will become Nigeria's very own FARC, locked in a bitter war of attrition for 20, 30 even 50 years, spurred on Nigerians and the media who cheer when the military suffer setbacks
...and for Nigerians playing cheer leader for terrorists and demoralizing our troops..its all fun and games until the bullwark that has spared us the horrors of war for over a decade breaks .
