I have no objection to the group of murderous thugs know as the Lord’s
Resistance Army being arrested and hung. Even shooting groups of them
will significantly reduce the crime rate. However I do suspect that
more than 100 combat troops will be needed to surround their camps.
They are not just gangsters the enemy is trained and organised.

Obama claims US soldiers are there to train Ugandans to do the work. YMMV.

'Rape cult' is putting it mildly. Children have to make daily treks of
many miles to avoid abduction.

Breivik been saying that he did not work alone since caught yet so far
