* To confuse us, the slave master is funding both sides of this so-called gay conflict in Uganda.
They are pushing to divert our attention from their looting of our resources, and the wars they are financing. "Homosexuality in Uganda" is now the Headlines in South Africa, Europe, Canada, USA etc....... If these foreigners really are concerned about us what about also demonstrating against the wanton killings, say, in Congo. Not a single one raised a finger against seven months of terror of cluster bombs or Depleted Uranium in Libya. Africans are being exterminated and the concern is whether sex is anal or vaginal?
