The rebels are led by Joseph Kony, who claims to have spiritual powers. They have terrorized towns across northern and northeastern Uganda, forcing an estimated 1 million people to flee. The group replenishes its ranks with children it abducts to use as fighters, porters or concubines.

Sounds like these folks are ripe for Muslim conversion.

And this is a good thing!

I drew the conclusion a while ago that Africa is just a lost cause.  They're rapidly sliding back to the state they were in before colonization, and perhaps that's just the natural order of things.

 

Our only interest is keeping the Chi-coms out of that continent.  Beyond that, just ignore it.

I first became aware of this group when planning a church mission trip to Jinja, Uganda last summer.

They claim to want to set up a government based on the ten commandments, yet rape, torture, dismember and murder to attain their goals. They are notorious for taking the children of a village captive for use as sex slaves.

The pictures I've seen of their atrocities are stunning and sickening.

I would not be a bit surprised to find that they are a muslim-backed terrorist organization. They are in northern Uganda ... check the map.

Sounds like they have the fundamentals down to be a muslim group.

At the very least, they've been hanging around the Muslims too much -- the Muslims are a bad influence.

Why do we never see human shields in places like this?

Why no protest marches for these people who are being killed?

[Kay Soze]

Amen!

The good news is that we have a president that takes compassion on such and well be addressing this issue shortly.

It is, after all, our justification for the deaths of 500 and growing US Citizens in Iraq.


Lets go help these people.

[Mears]

The human shields are USA haters,this is nothing to them.

Friends of our family were working in Uganda but had to leave the northern part of the country about 4 years ago.

The horror that goes on over there is unfathomable. God help the innocents.

"and Idi Amin is still dead."

Nope, he's living a life of luxury in Saudi Arabia.

he's living a life of luxury in Saudi Arabia

Not since August 16, 2003--although there was talk about moving his body back to Uganda.

"Not since August 16, 2003--although there was talk about moving his body back to Uganda."

He died, huh? Thanks, didn't know that.

[NautiNurse]

Amin required advanced life support with multiple organ failure for 4 weeks prior to his death. It was reminiscent of Generalissimo Francisco Franco's prolonged death watch. The media were running out of descriptions for "he's almost dead."

The Lord's Resistance Army is a Christian group - their leader is a former altar boy. Most of the victims in Uganda are likewise Christians - this does not deter them. The massacres in Rwanda were also led by Christian militias, and had all these Bible quotes to urge them on.

The Lord's Resistance Army also makes raids into the Sudan, which is the only area they are likely to clash with Muslims.

I drew the conclusion a while ago that Africa is just a lost cause.

So did I. And I don't think that they are like us, in any way at all. They are at a different, and lower, level of civilization.
