Wasn't Israel originally going to be sited in Uganda?

:-k

My guess is that Obama and/or his advisors were prompted to do something about the LRA (Lord's Resistance Army) and kill its demented leader, Joseph Kony, after viewing "Machine Gun Preacher", starring Gerard Butler- based on a real life preacher hero named Sam Childers.

The LRA is is a terrorist group formed in 1987, operating in northern Uganda and South Sudan. Joseph Kony, who proclaims himself the "spokesperson" of God and spirit medium is a killer. Their plan is to "liberate" via an assortment of human rights violations sanctioned by the Holy Spirit (google Blessed Trinity), including murder, abduction, mutilation, sexual enslavement of women, and recruitment of children as soldiers.

Their beliefs are actually a mishmash of tribal religious rituals, mysticism, traditional religion, Acholi nationalism and Christianity. Their goal is to establish a theocratic state based on the Ten Commandments and local Acholi tradition one arm (or leg) at a time.

I applaud Barak Hussein on this one, even if his intent was not to help Rev. Childers. He is still protecting the lives of innocents by hunting down this blood thirsty animal. Besides, isn't that our role as policeman of the world with deep pockets?


Carry on with the usual asshattery.[frypan]

What.....the Tea Party is in Uganda now?????

Please...after the world completely ignores what happened in Rwanda... they want to play catch-up?

F' em.

Let THEM clean up their OWN messes.

Bring the soldiers home...from EVERYWHERE.

Okinawa...Japan...Germany...Turkey...Iraq...Afghanistan...end the insanity. All we're doing is increasing the debt and the blowback factor. We're NOT making friends or establishing democracy!

Which is what makes this so damn stupid and frightening:

LIMBAUGH: Have you ever heard of Lord's Resistance Army, Dawn? How about you, Brian? Snerdley, have you? You never heard of Lord's Resistance Army? Well, proves my contention, most Americans have never heard of it, and here we are at war with them. Lord's Resistance Army are Christians. It means God. I was only kidding. Lord's Resistance Army are Christians. They are fighting the Muslims in Sudan. And Obama has sent troops, United States troops to remove them from the battlefield, which means kill them. That's what the lingo means, "to help regional forces remove from the battlefield," meaning capture or kill.

So that's a new war, a hundred troops to wipe out Christians in Sudan, Uganda, and -- (interruption) no, I'm not kidding. Jacob Tapper just reported it. Now, are we gonna help the Egyptians wipe out the Christians? Wouldn't you say that we are? I mean the Coptic Christians are being wiped out, but it wasn't just Obama that supported that. The conservative intelligentsia thought it was an outbreak of democracy. Now they've done a 180 on that, but they forgot that they supported it in the first place. Now they're criticizing it.

Lord's Resistance Army objectives. I have them here. "To remove dictatorship and stop the oppression of our people." Now, again Lord's Resistance Army is who Obama sent troops to help nations wipe out. The objectives of the Lord's Resistance Army, what they're trying to accomplish with their military action in these countries is the following: "To remove dictatorship and stop the oppression of our people; to fight for the immediate restoration of the competitive multiparty democracy in Uganda; to see an end to gross violation of human rights and dignity of Ugandans; to ensure the restoration of peace and security in Uganda, to ensure unity, sovereignty, and economic prosperity beneficial to all Ugandans, and to bring to an end the repressive policy of deliberate marginalization of groups of people who may not agree with the LRA ideology." Those are the objectives of the group that we are fighting, or who are being fought and we are joining in the effort to remove them from the battlefield.

but Obama said they were bad..... 😟

Fuzz, you're wasting bandwith quoting Limbaugh's magnificent flatulence.
He should learn to shut his mouth when he wants to pass gas.

Read my seltzer post (again), shake, stir, and cogitate. If you're still gassy- repeat.
