A Modest Proposal: Boko Haram

A Story by Abishai100

A wily operationalist seeks restoration in Nigeria as world-dreams of sports-spotlight may be overshadowed by modern detention.

An extra homage to globalism-peace and commercial mission work, inspired by Body of Lies (Leo DiCaprio). Thanks for reading,

Nigeria is a potentially nice commercial African area for the modern world of globalism rhetoric, especially because of the media-spotlight afforded to it in the 1990s in the USA by the national soccer team, bringing it much hype and market value, but since then Nigeria's troubled by terrorism and unrest, disturbing modern dreams of commerce.

The radical anti-government group, Boko Haram, wishes to replace the current Nigerian national government and create a more fundamentalist following of Islam, forbidding any readings from religious texts besides the Koran.

This is unfortunate, since Nigeria made a huge 'splash' in the USA when it took gold in the Atlanta Olympics ('96) by defeating Argentina and gave Argentina a real fight in the US World Cup ('94), announcing its 'media-presence' to the world!

Amlan Satan (code-name: Storm-Shadow) is a blood-diamond infiltrations-operationalist working in conflict-zones like Sierra Leone to intercept piracy-gem movements across continents disrupting the global gem-market and disturbing capitalism-exchange. Storm-Shadow believes the right dose or pirate-cyber blog-injections and diamond-bank interceptions will create the 'right media stuff' to make Nigeria sane once more, but is Storm-Shadow worried about this 'tone' of medicine?

STORM-SHADOW: I'll be doubling as a fashion-photographer from Zurich in Nigeria while concocting a blood-diamond heist.

The wily Interpol-relations operationalist who usually works in British Columbia, Northern Ireland, and Sierra Leone, has to inject a theater-stunt in a CNB Bank Nigeria meeting involving business leaders while claiming to be a safe-box photographer doing stories on blood-diamond depression.

BANK MANAGER: We'd no idea this 'Interpol-relations' surfer was a theatrical specialist using acid-guns to swap gems/toys!

The Nigerian Post reported that 'Storm-Shadow' (international man-of-mystery) was bringing a new sense of underground 'wind' to troubled Nigeria by reminding the world-populous the stage-value of reporting stunts designed to draw attention to blood-diamond traffic amidst already-disconcerting notions of radical terrorism threatening government commerce.

STORM-SHADOW: To be a Robin Hood in modern Africa, you have to think like Robin Hood or James Bond...or someone (nuts).

This is not a problem that will vanish overnight --- the hellmouth in Nigeria created by terrorism and piracy. However, there's real 'GI Joes' and James Bond types out there (like Storm-Shadow) who believe all the world needs now is the right 'spice' of anti-hellfire reporting...and dialogue.

Amlan is now back in the USA enjoying a spectacle-media affair involving legendary Georgetown coach John Thompson and former US President Clinton in what's to be a news-worthy dialogue about pluralism in the age of media, entertainment, diamonds, and democracy.
