| [THEHIMALAYANTIMES] When Washington imposed sanctions in June 2012 on Boko Haram ... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... leader Abubakar Shekau, he dismissed it as an empty gesture.
