Hmmm...looked into this yesterday with the first claims of it being a Christian matter.

My findings were this is some rogue army and don’t resemble anything Christian I am familiar with.

That said, I question why we need to be there and it is interesting that an unknown group for most Americans is being ginned up as an attack on Christians.

It is way too easy to dismiss this group as Christian and assist in the slaughter of them as evil. The question in my mind is the piqueing of the rhetoric.

Why select a group, a brutal “christian” army? I cannot defend the LRA’s actions nor their ‘christian’ claims, but in a land where muslim mujahadeen enforce shariah in horrific ways...

I think Rush was failed by his research team and this maybe one of those times he is in that 1% margen of error, but the fact if the media gets hold of it the damage that can be done by pointing out the ‘brutality of christians in Africa,” is dangerous.

One of the few times that Rush has really soiled the bed. He really messed up the whole Christian Muslim thing. He actually got the situation backwards. The LRA is no Christian army. They are something out of a horror movie. The only interaction the LRA has with Muslims is being armed by them, the government in Khartoum. We remember them, the same ones who sheltered Osama Bin Laden in the mid-90’s. Now the victims of the LRA are not Muslims either, but Christians. The four countries they operate in, Uganda, Congo, Central African Republic, and newly independent South Sudan are not Muslim countries. All are primarily Christian.
