A alguien mas le pareció una pelotudez total? O sea, todo bien con el mensaje, obvio que tipos como Kony no tienen ni que existir, pero hay que ser ingenuos para creerse que la situación en Uganda es tan simple.

In 2008, the United States military assisted financially and logistically during the unsuccessful Garamba Offensive, code-named Operation Lightning Thunder. No US troops were directly involved, but US advisers and analysts provided intelligence, equipment, and fuel to Ugandan military counterparts.[19] Though the offensive may have pushed Kony from his jungle camp, he was not captured.
In May 2010, U.S. President Barack Obama signed into law the Lord's Resistance Army Disarmament and Northern Uganda Recovery Act,[20] legislation aimed at stopping Kony and the LRA. The bill passed unanimously in the United States Senate on March 11. On May 12, a motion to suspend the rules and pass the bill was agreed to by voice vote (two-thirds being in the affirmative) in the House of Representatives.[21] In November Obama delivered a strategy document to Congress, asking for more funding to disarm Kony and the LRA.[22] In October 2011, Obama authorized the deployment of approximately 100 combat-equipped U.S. troops to central Africa.[23] Their goal is to help regional forces remove Kony and senior LRA leaders from the battlefield. "Although the U.S. forces are combat-equipped, they will only be providing information, advice, and assistance to partner nation forces, and they will not themselves engage LRA forces unless necessary for self-defense," Obama said in a letter to Congress.
