Fellow Citizens:
For 18 years Bantrazi's UPDF has been "enforcing peace" in Northern Uganda... except that peace has never been realize in Northern Uganda in spite of Bantariza claims that UPDF is a "peace enforcer"!
I hate to say this.. but then I think the so called Uganda Rebels should attack Mbarara and scatter Museveni's Tribesmen into camps for the Internally Displaced persons.. and we shall see what Bantariza of Uganda have to say!

But the Ugandan government maintains this is not a topic for the Security Council.
"In Liberia you had the UN Security Council which mandated intervention on behalf of the suffering civilian population because the state was under threat of falling into anarchy," defence ministry spokesman Shaban Bantariza told IRIN. "But the state is not under threat in Uganda."
He said calls for UN intervention were made by people who did not understand the situation.
"If they mean a peacekeeping force mandated by the UN Security Council, where would the force go?" he asked.
"These are terrorists who have infiltrated much of the country but only target rural civilian settlements and abduct children before disappearing. What we need is not peacekeepers but peace enforcers - which is what the UPDF [Uganda People's Defence Force] is for."
