I have stated this before.
Most of the so called KONY rebels who Museveni enjoys to kill, were abducted and forcefully conscripted into the LRA against their will. In other words this abductions occurred because the UPDF failed to do it's job of protecting the people of Northern Uganda to begin with.
The UPDF/NRM therefore, stands accused and is responsible for the massacre of our people (both Civilians and the SO called rebels) during the 18 years of terror in Northern Uganda.
The Regime's argument that a massacre did not take place in Abia... has completely left me buffaloed.
I am left wondering as to why the NRM regime would down play the number of causalities the people of Abia suffered at the hands of the so called Rebels? ....and yet we all know from the international press like MISNA (with credible sources on the ground in Abia in the form of Catholic Priests) who have come out with a report detailing the massacre of our people...and that many many people were wounded...still many more are suffering in the overcrowded facility which passes for an "hospital"in Lira.
There is only one conclusion which we must draw from NRM's behavior. This organization is EVIL period. It does not seek to promote nor protect the interest of Ugandans of Northern Origin. It has substituted instead, massive propaganda in a move to defend itself form it's failed obligation protect the people of Uganda so as to continue it's hold on [power in Kampala.

Matek, you are right. All along it has been the UPDF killing civilians and lying to the media. But I'll tell you what, we are not fools. We've got eyes.
