By David Raja Marpaung
Boko Haram is a group of the most brutal and sadistic terrorists in Africa today. Established in 2002 with its original name Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda'awati wal-Jihad, led by Abubakar Shekau, the militia group was then called itself Boko Haram or group antipendidikan West. In 2009, Boko Haram declared the establishment of an Islamic state in Africa. Boko Haram has expanded its remit in the area of Nigeria. Reported by the BBC, January 26 2015, according to The International Crisis Group (ICG) group's most ruthless organized and is located in the state of Borno controlled by Boko Haram.
Negeria look at the development, the international community looks not want to stay silent. France took an important step by inviting all regional countries including Nigeria, Chad, Benin and Niger to participate in the High Level Conference (KTT) in the framework of cooperation to defeat the Boko Haram. As desired Nigeria, the summit resulted in the decision that the UN Security Council, France, Britain, the United States and all countries listed in the UN blacklist and impose sanctions for the group Boko Haram.
In fact, this decision is surprising, because the UN Security Council usually only make such decisions if there are security threats are considered to be regional or international. Boko Haram to date only carried out attacks in Nigeria, plus the rumors that they have also carried out attacks in Niger and Cameroon.The UN Security Council took the decision that Boko Haram changed from a local threat into a regional threat.

There is a possibility that this decision was made to justify the operation of the West in the region. Britain, which has sent a search aircraft to support operations is one of the countries that pledged assistance. Israeli intelligence has also pledged assistance. However, the biggest aid promised is from the United States. The US has been spreading the word through social media. President Obama and his wife have issued a number of campaigns and protests across the US so that the girls were released. Nigerian NGO based in the US have started traveling around the African
continent to raise awareness of the atrocities committed by Boko Haram
