Edward,   
            How can Uganadans not line up for food, when it is the best propaganda for NRM to show that they are fighting terrorist in Northern Uganda who abduct young children to fight for them and some for wives!.    
           How can Ugandans not line for food, when this is the source of fundings that fuels the corruption of the NRM establishements. Many have built houses from funds siphoned from foreign fundings generated by this delibearate propaganda!.
           Does the reluctance and silence of the so called middle class being created by Museveni  to actively engage in debates to highlight these sufferings and find solutions suprise you? Like fat cats, they are very satisfied, they do not want to rock the board that has provided for their current opulence while the rest of the population wallop in a sea of  suffering, death, and despair and hopelessness.!  
 
The Gods must be crazy to let the people suffer so!

It is very sad that we have Ugandans lining for food. Having stated that, I can not help but wonder why Ugandans are lining up for food.
1) Is Uganda  not a fertile country?
2) Did Uganda miss any rain season?
3) Did Ugandans grow food but the season as bad?
4) This Ugandans are today hungry and lining up for food, are they and their government worried about it?
5) If yes to 4, what re they doing about it and if no to 4 do Ugandans expect to live on donor food for life?
6) When I was a kid at that age, I was trained to use my hands and get food from the garden, these kids are trained to line for food. What is the long term effect that NRM has brought to these kids and the future of Uganda?
 
Why are Ugandans lining up for food?

Hunger's Frontline in North Uganda - Pictures

WFP/Debbie Morello

Children line-up for dinner at the Gusco Centre in northern Uganda, a rehabiliation centre for children rescued from abduction by the Lord's Resistance Army rebels. "All the children have had bad experiences with the LRA," says Dora Ala, who runs the centre. "The children are forced to kill, to load guns... Girls are given to the LRA commanders. I have seen children with bullet wounds, in critical conditions, with limbs off."
