Mw. Ssemakula,
I was also wondering which of the 10 commandments Kony has not broken.
'Good basis for ruling Uganda' indeed !!

Date: Sat, 22 May 2004 01:18:04 EDT It has been learnt that the Kony movement do have reasons for their struggle. The have reasons that any one willing to know can find out. Unfortunately, Uganda press have simply refused or been prevented from finding those reasons. And they have spoken of the Ten Commandments as if it was something only meant for backwards people. let us stop for a moment and see what the Ten Commandments talk about. I will put briefly: 1. Thou shall have no other God but me 2. Thou shall not take the name of God in vain 3. Remember to keep the Sabbath 4. Honor thy father and mother 5. Thou shall not kill 6. Thou shall not commit adultery 7. Thou shall not steal 8. Thou shall not bear false witness 9. Thou shall not covet thy neighbors wife 10. Thou shall not covet they neighbor's goods. So, if that is what the LRA really want to use as basis for ruling Uganda then I find that they seem to be more interested in steering the country on the right track. This a good thing. But really Kony is talking about: 1 abuse of human rights as it happened in Acholi and elsewhere 2 discrimination on tribal and other lines 3 runaway corruption 4 disrespect for the constitution 5 militarisation of Uganda politics 6 destroying the bas of Uganda economy (shifting it to foreign aid based economy) 7 theft of money from the UCB So why do the newspapers refer to the only aims that LRA has is to rule Uganda according to the Ten Commandments? Most laws and rules in use are based on the Ten Commandments and it is in line with not trying to "reinvent the wheel." It is time to talk peace to LRA irrespective of how they intend to rule Uganda, Maybe they have already achieve their aims and negotiation will bring us out of this morass. Ignoring the fact that Kony has a contentious issue to deal with is failure of leadership on the part of the M7 government Look at carefully Menya Kilat
I think we are all convinced that Kony would be very effective in ensuring the respect for huma rights -- given what he has done to and for his own people over the past several years...
ps: why is his cause?
