So much evil.
Via Breitbart:
On Sunday, Nigeria-based militant Islamist group Boko Haram raided Kamuyya village in northeast Nigeria, killing 20 people.
Locals told Nigeria’s Daily Post that Boko Haram members had previously come to the town two months ago. They requested the citizens pay a tax of 250,000 Nigerian Naira ($1500 US) currency so “God’s work” can be carried out. When the Islamists returned, they were apparently infuriated that the locals, many of whom lived in abject poverty, could only raise 70,000 Naira.
A local told the Daily Post, “Actually, when they issued such threat, we all took it lightly, as we are all relaxed, and nobody bothered to make any extra effort to put in the amount they requested. Maybe that was what ignited this bloody attack because we were unable to meet their demand.”
Boko Haram members believe in a society that strictly follows the Shariah, or Islamic law. Under Shariah law, non-Muslims must pay a Jizya tax because, since they are not Muslims, they are viewed as second-class subjects.
