From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: NOC�LADUMAS GEORGES <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Situation in Uganda... Date: Wed, 6 Aug 2003 16:12:06 +0300
To all,
I would like to introduce to you a very compelling human situation of the Acholi people in northern Uganda.
Many of you probably have heard about President Bush's glorification of the HIV/AIDs success in Uganda. This is could be true in one way but false on the other.
Today, there are over 800,000 Acholi people forced by the government of Yoweri Museveni to live in concentration camps in the northern part of the country. This is ostensibly to save them from attacks by rebels of the Lord's Resistance Army, LRA. But instead, the government troops have turned against the civilians by raping the women, girls and men thus infecting them with the HIV virus. As for today, the HIV rate in that part of the country is over 30%. Sadly, this was intentionally left out of the Bush visit.
Other than that, since 1986 when Museveni became president of Uganda, over 300,000 Acholi have been killed, thousands maimed and amputated and over 20,000 children ubducted by the rebels.
I will be showing vidoes and pictures on the conditions starting September 2003. To see what I am talking about, please visit;
