Ok so this is confirmed then....I also forgot to mention that this new "front" was ordered on the whim of our Valiant Leader which bypassed Congress....yet again! I know the media is not covering things like this, but why is this guy able to do these things without question by AT LEAST Congress!?!?

ETA: Montana, while what you claim doesn't sound far fetched, I still need to confirm this before I let this one go (on the religious side of it). However, what I wrote above about how he has bypassed Congress NUMEROUS times still stands, though. Also, please explain why we "need" to be in Africa again?

Lest we go off the rails with the current canard (popularized by Limbaugh, no less) that President Obama unilaterally dispatched American special forces to aid muslim forces in killing christians in Uganda, let's get the facts straight.

Senate Bill 1067, the Lord's Resistance Army Disarmament and Northern Uganda Recovery Act of 2009, was introduced in May of 2009, passed the Senate by unanimous consent in March of 2010, passed in the House two days later by voice vote with no record of individual votes taken, and was signed into law by the President on March 24, 2010.

The LRA, despite their claims of christian ideology, are some serious low-life mother****ers. They've engaged in a laundry list of crimes against the Ugandan people, including kidnapping, murder, rape, sex trafficking of children, forced slave labor, etc., etc, etc. (http://www.globalsecurity.org/milita...d/para/lra.htm)

Feel free to support or oppose the intervention. But let's not misrepresent the facts and play the religion card in an attempt to vilify Obama.

If the LRA are the best christians Uganda has to offer, I say bring on the lions.

I didn't say anything about any of that.

I think this might be the first time where I actually don't know what to say.

While I feel bad for the Ugandan people, I do however have to ask why is this our concern?

Isn't the EU capable of dealing with such circumstances, involving their own region?
they are the 3rd largest military force in existence, with a population larger than the US.... so why are we grabbing our pooper-scooper when someone shits in their back yard?

"Following the Kosovo War in 1999, the European Council agreed that the Union must have the capacity for autonomous action, backed by credible military forces, the means to decide to use them, and the readiness to do so, in order to respond to international crises without prejudice to actions by NATO"...

I think we have crossed a scary line where I not only miss Bill Clinton as President, but might actually vote for him.

My apologies. I did not mean to suggest you were promoting a distorted version of these events. I read an earlier comment which referenced "Muslims fighting christians" and your post identified the LRA as a christian sect. I simply wanted to provide some additional information to clarify the situation.

The Horror , the Humanity.
If I put on the trail of some pic's of a smoking hot Lady who is rumoored to be named Irene ....

HOP,

This doesn't surprise me one bit. Its even taken a step further: I may have this wrong, but according to the news coming down from the grapevine, we are now in ANOTHER theater of war down in Africa, only this time we are helping the MUSLIMS fight the Christians! I don't know where to confirm this, but your research skills seem pretty sharp, so maybe you can find something.

Everything in the past 6-12 months just seems to have been thrown into hyper-drive! Its unreal.

We did help Muslims in Kosovo.

Sorry Hop, gonna call bullshit on this one too. Article was not picked up by a single other major news outlet. A lot of factual errors in the article, no source cited, blame cast on the CINC when no line for the supposed order can be drawn. An order from the White House is a called an Executive Order, they are published and there just isn't one. A member of DOJ is cited in the same breath as Federal Law Enforcement training when DHS, not DOJ runs the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center. In addition, Deputy U.S. Attorney General James Cole is the DOJ Press Officer, he doesn't "direct" jack shit and he is named as the supposed "man" behind this "directive".
