Kony Hysteria

Recommended Posts

So, have you guys been one of the few aware of the recent showing of an organization shedding light on the LRA in Africa? Joseph Kony, the warlord of the LRA. The MSM has been covering the topic on it, and exposing an organization call, "Invisible Children". Check out this link of a topic I posted on another person, fighting the good fight against KONY and the LRA! http://fnforum.net/forums/freestyle-room/26781-something-you-may-appreciate.html#post279643

My daughter & her then finacee' (now husband) spent a year (2009) in Northern Uganda on a mission project for Child Voice International... helping rebuild a school and working with the former child sex slaves. The school itself was riddled with bullet holes, where the previous students & teachers were murdered... buried outside. It is worse than the press has reported. This movement is very necessary.African politics is very corrupt. It is about making the rich richer & the have nots, are ignored. The Ugandan North was not of interest & probably is not now except for international pressure. These people of the North, families & children, have no value to the rich. Even now, the rescued girls/women (and men) are living in IDP camps... (Internally Displaced Persons... one is a refugee only if you cross borders). The atrocities are unspeakable. The LRA would capture children... force them at gunpoint to murder their own parents or neighbors, ensuring they would not run away. Who would want them? They could never be trusted. The girls, the younger the better (for fear of AIDS), were raped or coersed to be "wives" of Koni's soldiers... Who would want them after they had children of the enemy? These young women & girls were who my daughter worked with. They walked out of the bush with the clothes on their backs & their babies. They have nothing. They live in fear of being recaptured. When my daughter/sil was there, they had an emergency escape route planned by Child Voice... there was not adequate Army troops present to guarentee safety. At one point the solders that were there went on alert & all the aid workers were prepared to bug out. Koni has eluded capture by hiding & moving through the jungle between Uganda, Congo, & Sudan. International pressure is needed to coordinate efforts by all the African countries to run Koni to ground. There is no other way. Koni has repeatedly used negociations & "peace talks" to regroup & rearm.Some have noted that this movement Koni 2012 is only spending 1/3 of their money on the children in Uganda. But Child Voice & other NGO groups have formed based on the information put out there even before this latest blitz. The bulk of the Koni2012 funds are being used to bring this movement to the forefront of International awareness. (Child Voice and other NGOs raise their own funds which go directly to the children & schools. Our family members paid their own transportation to / from Africa.) With the world in recession... it would be easy to cut this program. Only last year, the US deployed 100 Special Forces to Africa to train & coordinate African Forces to root out Koni. The building schools & caring for children is putting our fingers n the dike when what is needed is to stop the leak. If there were precious minerals or oil here, this would have been solved years ago. It's time the US did something (support the African countries) because it was right. Climbing down from my soap box...Russ

:thumbup2: Thank you, for all the effort your family has put in sacrificing so much in the name of others. I totally agree with you on all of whats said....I was kinda of merely annoyed by the fact that the media is portraying this as an incident that has recently occured and that it has not gone on very long. Its amazing these guys have gotten away with what they have for so long!Its a real shame that the US has not stepped in a long time ago. Then again, any other nation as well. I agree that all the nations need to help out with this. But they view it as SSDD...

The moster media machine has spun it up and has everyone dumbed up with half truths about the whole thing now. You all need to watch the videos below for the in depth truth.

No, the LRA is not new. If the countries of Africa cared about their own people, Kony would have been stopped long ago. The US should NOT hunt down Kony. The US and other responsible governments need to encourage & support... give technical assistance... as they have to coordinate African forces on both sides of the frontiers. The US has provided radio base stations to remote villages so attacks can be promptly reported & swiftly responded to.

Child Voice is on the ground in Kampalla. My daughter/sil were there with CV. My wife was part of a group who traveled to Kampalla, each bringing an additional suitcase of needed supplies.

This picture was taken at the memorial at Lukodi where Joseph Kony and his LRA army massacred 50 people and distroyed their village and school in 2004! KONY must be stopped! This killing has been going on for 25yrs !!! Invisible Children is working toward this end! Child Voice is re-habilitating the child mothers scarred by KONY. (Wife wearing cowboy hat).

That is why they will be at a huge disadvantage in any kind of debate. I have gotten many folks over the years to stop watching many main stream media sources after they check out his sites for a bit. They quickly realize they were not getting the whole story or very skewed views of it rather than the real story. I have been following Alex Jones for many years and he gets very "Compassionate" about the issues but his accuracy has yet to be matched in reporting the truth and facts from any other news source that I have found hands down. I even went to an Eric Severide symposium last year which had news reporters of old like Nick Clooney, Bob scheifer and Dan Rather that highly complimented Alex as one of the last true Iron core investigative journalists around. He has a bigger following than almost all other news sources except for Drudge Report.:thumbup2:

I will tell you that, like Iraq & Pakistan which we have reluctantly learned much of in recent years, Africa is largely tribal. Our daughter married an African from Cote d'Ivoire which you might know has been wracked by a long running Civil War, a disrespected (Internationally monitored) election, an outgoing President who had to be deposed by force. My Son in Law, has had a privledged education... educated in Paris, Geneva & US. He has 2 Masters degrees in International studies. My SIL & daughter have just adopted his orphaned niece, now 8. His brother was one of those who disappeared and presumed murdered by one of the militias that overran their villiage. His body was not recovered. Americans can not relate to being targeted for murder because we belonged to the "wrong" tribe. The closest I can compare is being a white guy in Roxbury (Boston, Ma). I don't care if all of Africa is a mountain of GOLD... I do not believe the US should engage in combat there. The Lord knows we have had enough of ill advised wars. However, so much violence remains along tribal lines... and the tribes in power (think Sadam) have enriched their followers at the expense of other groups. It may never change. Those rescued children have grown to adulthood in the IDP camps. We have supported Child Voice international who for $50 will LOAN the funds for a woman who has been to their school, chosen and learned a trade (tailor, baker, hair, buying/reselling food) and assitance with starting her business, be basics of finicial statements (income/loss/profits) and saving... and making payments on her loans... http://www.globalgiving.org/projects/childvoice/ This is not a hand-out but a Hand Up. Koni is still out there... he is weakened but is still raiding villages. Stealing what he wants, taking children... It's all he knows. I feel strongly that the US should NOT go after him but rather support AFRICAN forces to bring their scourage to justice. "First they came for the ****, but I did not speak out ... "

I was talking to a coworker from my last employer, about 9/11. I alluded to the idea that it was somewhat of an inside job. He has anger issues, and he almost popped a vein on me on the work floor. Then he proceeded to as me if I was one of those prison planet nutcases. I told him that I had never heard of them. At the time I never did. He basically aroused my curiousity about the site. Ever since then, I occassionally visit their site. :lol: Flagmanruss, I sometimes feel the US needs to intervene on some issues. I do not like to think of us as a global police force, but I do think that we as a nation are obligated to do something based on our founding principles. We give aide to countries after we bomb them, we give aide to countries because they are in need of help. I also think that because Africa lacks any govt. structure, we should be giving aide to the oppressed. Militarily, IMO. If a people cannot defend themselves, and are being massacred by tyrants, I think we ought to fight and defend the innocent. ...but that has more of my christian background speaking than our national policies. :smart:
