Educate me fellow Citizens:
How does one tell whether a rotting corpse belongs to an LRA rebels or a UPDF soldier? That is the question.
Is there some sort of a special mark branded on a body of an LRA REBEL which somehow identifies the body as that of an LRA rebel?
The fact of the matter is that Museveni's LDU are probably killing innocent Lango civilians ..and then claiming that they have KILLED "REBELS"
all in all this is yet another cheap propaganda by Museveni and cabal

ABOUT 17 bodies of Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) rebels have been discovered rotting on the banks of River Ogola in Itobara village, Ngai sub-county in Apac district, reports Dennis Ojwee.
The bodies were scattered in the bushes in the river valley.
The commander of the Local Defence Unit (LDU) at Itobara in Nagai, Sgt. Fred Ogwang, told The New Vision at Itobara detachment recently, that his forces had engaged the LRA in three battles the previous week in Itobara, north of Ngai sub-county headquarters.
He said the rebels were believed to have died during the battles.
The UPDF 4th Division intelligence officer in Gulu, Capt. Fred Rugadia Akiiki who visited the scene, said the detachment was opened at Itobara to strengthen security and narrow the rebels' area of operation.
"This junior officer, Sgt. Ogwang did a commendable job that day. In fact he even did a better job than some of the second lieutenants," Rugadia told leaders of Ngai and Itobara recently.
Residents said the rebels often infiltrated the Ngai, Itobara, Aboke and Iceme areas in Lalogi and Lakwana sub-counties in Omoro county.
The local leaders commended the willingness of the locals to cooperate with the army by quickly reporting information about the rebels. He also decried heavy drinking among some LDUs.
