[Ugnet] The INSTITUTION OF RWOT-MOO EQUALS LAND AND PEOPLE.
The INSTITUTION OF RWOT-MOO EQUALS LAND AND PEOPLE. UNITY = TRUTHFULESS + JUSTICE (Law and order) + COMMITTMENT . COMPLIANCE WITH DEMOCRATIC PRINCIPLES . PRACTICE (( Whereby democratic principals equals equality,freedom,liberty..etc)) AKTUNG!!! Do not attempt to disproove extra-logical formuli. Alas, so was it time again. Once more for the hundredth time again, moreover! Another parody in labyrinth extravagansa Another storm cloud on the make up Yes, another problem takes cover Under the carpet another one stoops On the horizon twilight dawns Oh Lord, what another commotion in its honor For retreat strategists Exercise but yet another rethorical for the gallery For on the stars solution shines. AMEN! Stranger things have always happened, they say. So let it be this time around also. Take for example the so called "RWODI-MOO" in Acoli or their counterparts in troubled parts of Uganda. If it were not in Uganda, a labyrinth situation like that in Acoli would have seen glimpses of light rays long a time ago. But, Uganda is Uganda. In Uganda we do things our own big ways. O.K., the whole world of humans know that there are many different KINDS and TYPES of democracies.In Uganda, and especially in Northern Uganda, the mode is trouble triggering.One solves or resolves a situation by triggering another problem. You must always trouble trouble, so to say. In Uganda we do not care that troubled Trouble will always trouble Trouble. If we are all troubles, that is.((Thank youin advance for not understanding!!)) Firstly, a little some lesson in Acoli. The institution of RWOT-moo translates as the institution of traditional leadership. "Naturally" (assuming that Their Imperial burgers are God given), this is headed by the Chieftaincy or Kingdom clown just as in any other parts of Uganda. Difference is, the Rwodi-moo in Acoli lack all phenomena akin to a Chieftain. Question is, should " Disney REGENTS" of the sort still be confered the confidence, glory, respect and trust as commonly accorded to Royal institutions? Well, today I am on a logic stance so I will exonerate myself from such questions. Lets put it like this: My garnd mother Essejja thought me one equation: LAND + PEOPLE = KAKA.(( That calls for another lesson in Acoli: Kaka=TRIBE))She said that situation is as intrinsic as it embryonic. My Kwara modified it thus: The institution of The RWOTMOO = LAND . THE PEOPLE.(i.e., Land multiplied by the people). I guess he wanted to make it one and the same. Stubbon as usual, Momma countered with another trigger of problem ripples: UNITY = TRUTHFULESS + JUSTICE (Law and order) + COMMITTMENT . COMPLIANCE WITH DEMOCRATIC PRINCIPLES . PRACTICE I reckond you know how Kwara countered.At those stages I usually took cover. Plus or minus here and there; multiplication there, to what avail?! Me, I know PLUS times PLUS is PLUS. And MINUS times MINUS is PLUSS still. So why the heck boggles over one and the same?! In Acoli, we have RWODIMOO without LAND. CONSEQUENTLY, NO PEOPLE EITHER. A King without a land is a King without people, therefore a King without subjects. IN SHORT, he is not a KING. ((Please be warned, "...I am not a politikcian. So I willo comopletely and aboosolutely and otherwise aloso allow no points of informationo and, absolutely no questions. I do not like disrespectful bullies. Why ask questions to disrupt my strategy? No way, no rights; no obligations.Square, business done!")) Present ripples of distress in Acoli is triggered by prevalent Land propriety regulations. Some people call it "LAND GRABB). We shall get back to that because this issue is as huge as it is deep.And, we can not separate it from Rwodi-moo and, THE BIGGEST IMPACT OF THE WHOLE, ACOLI UNITY. Unity is the most threatened. Lord, the way I would love to think it is NOT STRATEGICAL TARGETING(a coincidence, so to say). Lets save it for last. Talking about RWODI-moo, LAND and PEOPLE, in the good old days of RWODI-moo,the RWOT'S chief concern was that his people welbeing; that no son of the is thing from another territory grabbed an inch of his LAND. He ensured that no one adventures with his domain. He was the father of the land.That one is absolutely, and completely and otherwise also, DIVINE. If for certain twisted reasons, the land (areal) no longer sufficed, it was his obligation to "ACQUIRE" (by grabb raids or otherwise)an anex. My Maa told me too, that REGENTS ALWAYS DID "ACQUIRE" the territories and loyalty of the rightful owners of the land. She always told me (when ever I stubbonly refused to eat): ".if you want to be a KING, just grabb itthey all did grabb it at the beginning" She passed away long time ago. Would she were here. I would have asked her what variety of RWODI-moo we now have in Acoli. A Rwot with no LAND and no PEOPLE is a RWOT IN EXILE!!If a Rwot is in exile is he still a Rwot? If so, why should he then be REINSTATED? Do we reinstate "actualities"? ((caution!! Do not attempt the exra-logics. No food for the mi

RE: [Ugnet] WHO CONTROLS UPC
The UPC is a legal entity, is it not? That used to mean that it has some kind of "strukturell-funktionalistiskt" setup (engl.structural functionalism?!) regulated by some form of statute,does it still apply? Wambuga, I can see you are not UPC.You are "Obal-UPC" or "UPC-abacabac"! You sem to belong to the kind who categorically shut the people down each time they want to be elucidated or ask questions after the leader has spoken. That is "UPC-rwot-ineka". In those days when UPC was UPC, people were free-minded. Then it was for the people by the people.Then UPCs do nat say, " ah the leader has already spoken...why waste people's timeyou shut up, Chief has already said it is fine...etc" That said, what is your answer to the question "WHO CONTROLS UPC"?! Soon it is twenty years or so since the last UPC reign in Uganda, and, life goes on. Bwana Gody, now you even bewilder me more.

ugnet_: INVESTIGATE POLITICAL PARTY AFFILIATIONS
Compatriots, Brig Banya and the other returnee LRA commanders should be thoroughly investigated from other aspects as well in order to establish their genuine motive. For example, their Political party affiliation ( or former affiliation), religion, former association etc. There could be channel the long echoed VESTED-INTEREST bonds to certain Political Parties and influential persons. Did they believe in that twisted version of the "Christian faith"? How did they react / relate to that Satanic "HIGH PRIEST" of the LRA who figures a lot on their videos? If they did not believe in him, what motive did they have to torture Acoli for 18 doggy years? Or are we seeing a recurrence of the Lakwena tragedy. It is rumoured that when Lakwena was lured to the corridor to Jinja certain Party strategists like Etek Ejjalu, Otai Peter, Isaac Ojok joined with the hope that when all is said and done, they would be the only "Capables". Was Banya that sort? OBSERVE: I am talking about investigation. Not to have them murdered!!! noc'lHitta rätt i webbdjungeln med MSN Sök.

ugnet_: "blood density democracy & co
Kamrater, jag har fått't så dä 'ba stinker av't!! Stryck, alltså. Jag fick det så jag bara teg! Det är tydligent det priset man betalar för att eftersträva demokratiskt förordningar och rättvisan därav. Dessa Satans feudala vampyrrövslicker typer med dess fördunklade demokrati perspektivet!! Compatriots, I was only telling my mates how much I love all of us democratic humans. My gratitude ( in advance, moreover) for extending to me a helping hand so even I can understand the rational behind those pests called DEMOCRACY, FREEDOM, LIBERTY, ACCOUNTABILITY & RESPONSIBILITY, PEACE, LOVE and above all, JUSTICE. Once again deficit as transpired. Subsequent controversy and obscurity amids Brigadier Banya surrender / capture or whatever, clearly demystifies "BLOOD DENSITY DEMOCRACY" (rd.demagogue mobb democracy / anarchy). In essence, the Brigadier Banya case is no sensation. What is sensational is the way folk who have always hollered "DEMOCRACY and JUSTICE" suddently make a about-turn. I personally think it is wrong for people to demand pardon / impunity etc., even before the man is tried in a democratic and fair court of justice. If he should be pardoned or acquited, should that not be after his has been tried in court?!?!? Our concern should on the contrary, be TO ENSURE THAT THE GUY IS TRIED IN A FREE AND FAIR DEMOCRATIC COURT OF JUSTICE. I both realise and consider of course, that our dilema may be just that: THE LEGAL INSTITUION, the jurdiciary may not be well structured enough to guarantee a fair trial in cases of this magnitude. My fear is that they may be easily dysfunctional. I keeping thinking if this kind of schenario would have surfaced HAD THE LRA GENUINELY COMMITED TO AND COMPLIED WITH the peace resolution efforts. Like I was saying, would any of you be kind enough to extend a helping hand to account for those rogue terms ( DEMOCRACY, FREEDOM, LIBERTY, ACCOUNTABILITY & RESPONSIBILITY, PEACE, LOVE and above all, JUSTICE)?? OK., we are aware of course, that there are many different kinds and types of democracies. I am particularly intrested in emphasis amids the obsecure PRE-REQUISITES for their accomplishment / success. Like the forces which maintain our world on track, I believe in Devine democratic rules (institutions). Yet, this subsequnt week, I got a whole hell of scourges for not understanding the realm and rational of contemporary Ugandan fashion: "BLOOD DENSITY JUSTICE". A best mate in Örebro once introduced the phenomenon to me. He said, "in a true democracy, at the moment of truth, BLOOD IS THICKER THAN WATER." To date, his notion of democracy is still opegue to me. I keep asking myself whether this "blood is thicker than water" stuff is at it's micro or macro exposure. I keep wishing that it is indeed, at macro stance. At least I hope so, for democracy's sake! A dilema we are paying for now is that those rules have always been put out of play.Contemporary Ugandan generations are not democracy in the marrows. If ever we should accomplish a genuine state of democracy; a generation Uganda in whom democracy is obvious or if ever we should ensure (safeguard our democracy) that no single individual or entity shall ever take our country for selfish ride, then we must play along Devine rules of the game. Otherwise, this kind of situation will always recurr. Another dilema is that no generation wants to be the first in this kind of circumstances. Had these rules already been customary and obvious norms, there would not be any controversy about a clear cut case as this. Human development should be our biggest challange for the coming decades. Which generation will sacrifice to be the gong-gong generation for "democracy in the marrow " Ugandan?Veckans Pollenprognos hittar du nu på MSN Väder.

Those ancient ones in Athens are wide awake!! Those of Athens, be they Gods "The Demi" or "God of Gods" or "Gods of Football", are digging the raptures AND JAZZING TO THE THRILL. Gone are the days of LOGICs. So are the good old days of Ugandan football of Nssereko, Ayub, Otti, Mobiru Tank, Omondi, Tom Lwanga, Obua Denis, Peter Okee, Paddy Okech, Ddybiya, Masajjage, Kitamurike, Ebalu and many many many more!! Bye-bye logics!! Football logic is ball in the net behind the coal keeper!! At least in football, the Daudi is Goliat and the Goliat is Daudi. Coming from Uganda, we do know the Devil and the Sait is one and the same and, LOGIC is what you want it to be. So let it be, Amen. But in Greekland, when the boys go in to make advertisment for their Grand Pa's creation (organised public tournaments) aka OLYMPICS, all the Gods are awake and the boys are THORNED TO THEIR TEETH. I know you have never seen thorned teeth. Just be good and "just accept". For, when the Greeks make propaganda for their Olympics anniversary, only the impossibles are possible. In Acoli those aldermen used to say,."LUBANGA PE BWOTO MERE ATA" meaning: God never leaves his own without heiritage (spl?!). Even you, he has spilt for you some "akili" to shine with when the going gets rough. I hope one day, football and sports will be re introduced in Uganda so our own can shine and start to "Ninja-run" instead of "nima-nima-nima" like elephants with butts like for carring water a top of Elgon. That is not running. When you run, you "Ninja- do it". These Impossible ones. It took a Greek to ninja beat the American impossible beauties of athletics. May the best of the day win on Sunday.

OPEN UP THE GATES OF DOVER-CALAIS for, if you can not win over them, join them But first, lesson number one: Fabien Barthez är en hälsorisk! In short, you do not go watching Barthez play if your health is questionable. No! That is suiside not covered by any serious health insurance. ONE MOMENT he rushes out in one of those classical suicide excurssions that beat all novice goal-keepers collective records. THERE YOU MISS JUST TEN HEARTBEATS. Direct, moreover!!! THE NEXT MOMENT, the bloody son of a ball glues the ball in a seldom withnessed spectacular goal-keeper akrobat (Engl. acrobat?) that extinguishes the world of football lovers for a blink's moment. THERE TOO, YOU BLOW ANOTHER MISS OF TEN HEARTBEATS. I know it. I have counted, aha aha aha!! If you are in love with the game of football and Fabien Barthez is in the squad, be warned! Find out in advance if you have failing health and have aids within reach. JAG ÄR LÅNGTIDSFRISKSKRIVEN, aha aha aha! That was lesson two in Swedish. In short, don't mess with my health, aha aha! Lesson three: IT IS PUNITIVE to bore noc'l Okuto del Coli and the world of football lovers. YOU EITHER PLAY THE GAME OR YOU FUCKING DON'T! Stationary ironlegged statues get punished. England knows it now. Do not ask me what the Dukes of football ate before the match. I do not know. But Franco's graces, Kings and demolition Zidane didn't do any better either. Perhaps we must ressurect the good old days of Napoleon to observe a more boring battle. O.K. Sometime we have all wondered how sensible humans of blood and flesh can run around chasing some stupid ball they are not supposed to grabb. Isn't it Gook? Ugandan know better. That is why they have abdicated and surrendered the gracious elegance of a sport to the WEST AFRICAN Kings of the game. That they did so, I do understand.Mulindwa,John and Kironde do too. We can not have humans chasing missarable balls on fertile grounds like Nakivubo, Walugembe, Mandela, Pece, Wankulokuku and the rest of the nonsense while there is optimal need for bananer and potatoe fields to feed those at the Samaritian king, King Mutebi's bounty to the displaced Ugandan at Banda. Appoprå det, the security villages do not seem secured from vampire claws any more. Now that sports is an alien pest Ugandan do not want to associate with, perhaps there is better use for the stadiums. Why not? Ugandan do not qualify for any international tournaments no more. They can not play football; they can not run like our fathers in the good old days tore. Lesson number five, when the moment of "THE WINNER TAKES IT ALL" is arrived at, THERE IS NO ROOM FOR ELEGANCY!! Majji-majji elegances like those of Russia must learn to grow "OKUTO DEL". That was lesson number six. In short, THORNS Without that it is hard to advance further in the tournament. Elegance like the KCC and Layibi of thos days do no justice here. ASK the English goal-keeper David James. He knew that if you miss the ball you do not miss the "MUGU" (Swahili?) as long as there is possiblity for the referee looking opposite direction,aha aha ah!! Face to face with King Thierry Henry of Frenchfootball and Gunnerdemolition in a SOLO MODE, what else to do at that pathetic situation?? Penalty, OK but, what to do?! KING IS KING!!!

WHERE ARE THOSE UGANDAN WHO ALWAYS CONTEND THAT THEY CAN TALK SENSES INTO KONY / LRA AND BRING HIM TO SERIOUSLY BOTH COMPLY WITH AND COMMIT TO PEACEFUL DIALOGUE WITH THE UGANDAN REGIME? What are they waiting for? Do they proceed from their desire for new governance in Uganda or from the severity of the doggy situation our Ugandan commonality is exposed to? If the latter bears any superiority then they should commit regardless of the power wielder at state house. It is about making the best of the worst situation!!! Uganda democracy is another five. Otherwise, a logical conclusion is that they neither have the ability or the capability of engaging the LRA into a meaningful dialogue. And, what would the dialogue be about anyway, considering the magnitude of subsequent barbarism?

You guys so keen on disintegration and "sectorial" / sectarian bias have problems: confusing Buganda with Uganda. Would you start by defining Uganda to convince those of us who do not hang along your twisted perception of the state of Uganda? It has not occurred to me that Uganda is a nation state and all of us other "Ugandan" are aliens. Why don't you wait until Buganda becomes a state and tell that generation your feudal utopia? Why not invest in constructive arguments conducive to mutual / bilateral understandings. It is not always possible to converge on a common understanding from a derogatory domain Don't some of you know that there are differences between "Tribe" and "Tribalism" and, between Ethnicity and Ethnicism"?

YOU HAVE NO COMMAND, YET, OF THE ISSUE YOU ARE TRYING TO ADVANCE, unfortunately!!! Check out the ROYAL HISTORY and check out about Kakungulu. Check out the contents of your definition of Uganda. Check out your definition of CULTURE. Check out the contents of your definitions of Political rights and human rights. Check out what you got within the parameters of your understanding of economical, cultural and social rights. Check out if UN declarations, treaties or conventions cover them. Check out if in any way there are discriminative factors in your arguments. And do a little homework to find out the contents of normative definition of discrimination and what UN conventions or declarations cover it. After that come back to net and parade your points to support that you are not talking low-key subjective bullshit!!! Some times it helps to be factor based.

And when the Baganda try to address this issue of Northerners burrying/forgiving differences amongest themselves and abondoning a reconciliation with Baganda, some Northerners have termed us as "tribalists". I am talking about this recent incident when they refused to apologize to Luweero people but decided to apologize to each other (Acholi, Lango, Teso). Uganda missed a serious chance for a reconciliation between the North and Buganda. People had cooled down and they were ready and open to forgiveness.

The Iteso call them "emerit" or something similar to that, a clear sign of intolerance of various tribes of Uganda. The Bakenyi in Teso are forced to be at the end of the waiting-list to see a doctor! This is not the only example, there are lots of them.

You will see that Buganda has a civilization of organized governance. If sensible Ugandans can allow for the North to learn from Buganda and get itself organized regionally to tackle local matters (Federalism), I am very sure that the North can achieve the same. If Northerners with money quit spending their money in Buganda and take it to their roots (home) to develop their home region, I am very sure the North will achieve development. > >Dada, it is sad for me to see that a HUGE majority of Northern MPs own houses and businesses in Buganda, and yet they own nothing in their home regions (the regions they are supposed to represent in parliament). These MPs are clear examples that they are not working towards the development of the regions they are representing. How can an MP from the North represent that region when he/she lives in Buganda?? How shamefull can things become in order for sense to come back to our brothers and sisters?? We had Obote who had mansions in Buganda and he had nothing in Lango!!

Mulindwa could be a train, dog, cow, goat, car, bag of posho, ghost or whatever, what is important is for some of us to start the elementary realm of analytical fundaments: object, subject etceteras.

Something is seriously wrong with the person or people who are advising these religious people. They seem NOT to realize the significance of "apologizing" about anything. The political and economical implications are HUGE, the legal ramifications even more nightmarish. I ask, and i do this only timidly..are the people behind this the very ones behind the 1985 coup? For that advice was wrong as this one again is. A war that should have been fought and won in Luwero is now being fought and probably lost in another theater. Were Acholi politicians views sought. By Politician i mean People like Mao, Okello Okello, Okullu Epak, NOT Walter Ochola. Or are there no politicians worthy that title from this area? I think for once i agree with those who say that Religion and culture shouldn't be mixed with politics. I hope to God this is one of those miss quoted and wrongly reported news! Otherwise God help the Acholi People and Uganda at large for what has been and is being done in their name!

Now twenty-six or so days before the first of April even ningo-wang and nipping my body all over to ascertain that I am not dreaming hurts. One thing is for sure, though: today is not the first of April, yet! One more thing is extra difficult today. That is, the difficulty in coming to the clear with the Religious Leaders motives. Perhaps it is meaning that those motives remain opaque to atheists like us. But intuition, I have. Mine one tells me something is very wrong. Whoever is advising them is doing his job fine!! He has successfully succeeded in trading on desperado and impulsivity. Uganda is fantastic. This one is world record Pure Gold!! Are they apologizing in place of the UPC regime, the then military officers / commanders, the then Ugandan national army or the ordinary soldiers? But then, I am but an atheist layman who is oblivious to the motives of religious leaders. So let me wait while situations become permeable. In Uganda anything is possible and it is only in Acoli, you can do anything and get away with it! Muwanga and co must be twisting in their graves. Bull!!

Those guys murdering Baganda babies, women and men in Luwero, to them is no crime and they did not see it as a crime then and they cannot see it as crime today and as one Acholi reader put it; There is no Acholi leader who is stupid enough to apologize for a crime Acholi did not commit leave alone its magnitude. The defense would be that these Baganda men, women were collaborating with rebels and the babies were the collateral damages; and the Acholis in the UNLA had a duty to defend their government and they were fighting insurgents adui.

If civilians are caught in the fire in Acholiland, well, it is a crime because the lives of Acholis are more important. The LRA and Joseph Kony are no insurgents but fighting for a better Acholi and if Langis join arrow groups, they will be slaughtered like rats as warning of things to come.

RE: ugnet_: Fight now, talk later â Atubo
CORRECT! That is caring for his people. The real "FOR THE PEOPLE, WITH THE PEOPLE BY THE PEOPLE".Enough of the labyrinth & twiddling at cross roads ala "LRA rac; gamente bene rac", bull! The LRA failed to comply with the AMNESTY. I do not think they were committed neither. Cos they neither have the structure nor the infrastructure for negotiations (political leadership / wing). And, whatever objectives to start the war, is no longer tenable. The "UPDF rac LRA bene rac" distress is long overhauled First, we as Ugandan collectively must resolve the situation in the North once and for all (irrespective of who / whom the power wielder at the state house is).

Most LRA commanders who matter have been killed and the developments in Sudan indicate disaster for the rebels. By this time next year, the whole thing might be history. Of course the people who have the greatest stake in the imminent peace are those of the Acholi sub-region, which comprises the districts of Gulu, Kitgum and Pader.

And third, are the Acholi people in the Diaspora who have accumulated a wealth of skills and money.

ugnet_: AMUKA
This is the development we anticipated, unfortunately. There is reason to stoop to check direction. Me think it is time enough to balance realism, idealism and empiricism. Matter of principal alone may not safe the people. There is reason for the Amuka and they have the Langi consensus. The LRA raised havoc there. The message from the Langi is clear. They will not sit and wait. They are aware that it is the responsibility of the government to provide protection and security. But, they are also aware that they are dealing with a peoples plight. Which is an emergency. Akut (Acute /emergency!?) has no law. Emergency personal (police, ambulance, etc., drive right through Red Lights, Zebra crossings etc). The proceeding point is, if the government provides protection, fine. If it does not, we cannot wait. That discussion can go parallel The result justifies the means. If they are able to up-root the Vampires it is OK. What is important is that the recruitment is restricted to certain categories only. Besides, there are tactical and strategical aspects that have not been outlined (for obvious reasons?!). Most people who are opposed to the Amuka are not asking all the correct questions. For example, they have not been told how the line-up is going to be, and, they are already spreading scares! Training the Amuka is one thing. Distributing jurisdiction is another. We must start to observe keenly what is going on and weigh it against what the people want. Why do you think Obote is not playing active (openly) role against the Amuka apart from subliminal comments? The Amuka is a good thing for the people by the people. What we should concern ourselves with is how to contain it and within what legal / constitutional parameters. If the constitutional base is not there, there is need to look at the constitution itself because this is now a reality. It is this reality we have to face not some concrete-legged politics. Some of the redundant youths along the pathetic verandas of Gulu Town could find better meaning and training that might become a career than playing cards. One or two might find meaning in defending his people. Besides, it deprives the LRA of pastures for some of its intelligence junks mingling along the streets, scaring and intimidating people. We cannot keep on crying over the governments failure while the Vampires spread dung. It is the plight of a people we are talking about. Not a development project or society development strategy. As I have always said, as long as the recruitment is restricted to certain categories only and within clearly defined praxis, it is worth looking at. I wrote long time ago at the very beginning that there was priority need for our leaders (local and nation) to restrain themselves in coordinating with their Langi and Atesot counterparts. It seems fairly clear that they did not give it a blinks moment. Now, the developments seem to be taking them unaware. If they had given it maximum priority, they would have resolved or understood the situation better. The amuka is well anchored. rgds noc'l gaumoyMSN 8 helps ELIMINATE E-MAIL VIRUSES.

Re: [Ugandacom] Re: ugnet_: Greed that feeds terror:Madeleine Albright
You self!! That has been the tactics all along. The strategy is a Palestina state along sides Israel. Conquest if Iraq is merely the opening gambit in a compounded tactic. As said, to me, the strategy appears to be the establishment of a Palestinian state. BUT, one that is militarily, totally inferior and without any threat to Israel AND in a milieu that is totally neutralized. In clear context, neutralization of Islamism! Prior to democratisation / liberalisation of the Saudi Kingdom, another supply for oil was vital. Iraq offered the sacrifice. No soon was that accomplished than the Saudi Royals were made to understand that their status is no longer what it used to be: USA declared termination of their Military bases in Saudi Arabia. Unfortunately however, the Mesopotamian blood still flows through the veins of these heirs of Babylon Original. So, the modern well prosperous, liberal, democratic Iraq Republic that is intended to be the role- model state and lock beat to catalyse Arab liberalization has drawn over time. The formula seems simple: Let a CONGLOMERATION of modernized, liberalized and militarily neutralized Arab Republics be ARAB.

Re: ugnet_: Apt lesson for our tyrants (like Musevenic!)
No Owor, that is short cut! It is deeper than that. It is among others because we are UGANDAN at very low level of political evolution(a situation we share with the rest of the so called Thirdworld). Our people do not even know their own rights to defend neither do they know how to vote. We are many hundred years behind. Imagine we have not even reached the level pertaining to fundamental ideological bases despite the NRM's "efforts" to establish class faculties. What would have become Ugandan business & industrial class have precipitated into a plutocratic slag. Secondly, his own personality played a roll to ease for the take over. Recall that he was the architect behind what later evolved to become Gorbachov's Perestroika. So, it comes down to what I usually say "our leaders still come from among us". We must make a better "US" to eventually have better leaders. Mr Shevardnadze was able to overcome his libido and swallow his pride we the truth came dazzling on his face.

Tell them the LRA does not exist. Tell the MPs. How many times do I have to tell you that I both perceive and recognize that IT IS THE CONSTITUTIONAL OBLIGATION OF THE GOVERNMENT AND THE STATE TO PROVIDE PROTECTION TO THE CITIZEN. We do converge there. But some subliminal Vampire agenda works against that providence. They extend the definitions to include unreasonable and unrealistic domain thus, frustrating convergence. How does LUWERO belong? We are concerned with de facto status quo. Otherwise, you may as well say that the LRA are doing great job simply because their initial conviction had some values. International community, yes, I NOTICE THAT EACH TIME THEY FOCUS ON THE STATUS QUO (these days almost everyday on TV 4, Sweden), THEY ALSO PUT THE BLAME ON THE LRA.

Quite correctly we are in tune on this matter. But I observe United Nations under-secretary Jan Egeland said : "The UN was prepared to fund and encourage peace talks with the LRA..The UN has taken a very pro-active stance in resolving conflicts elsewhere in the world". In another article that Owor sent, the same individual says the UN is only there for humanitarian purposes and would not indulge in dialogue mellan the Ugandan government and the LRA. So, which is which? The same individual both kindles and extinguishes hopefantastic!!

A lot is hollered about "talking to Kony" and the rest of the nonsense. Talk to Kony HOW? And, considering the atrocities and Terrorist methods, we may have to re define the variety of the "DIALOGUE" suitable. The whole "TALK TO KONY" scenario is threatening to become a BABY SITTER situation. AND TIME TICKS ON. EACH DAY INVITE YET ANOTHER DAY and our people continue to SURVIVE BY CHANCE in those filthy doggy Camps. Kony or the LRA or whatever, should first have a "TALKABLE" structure not least in action and strategy. Some good Samaritan should come out with workable extract. The Vampires just do not have any!!!

Re: ugnet_: From Acholinet-Very Serious
Mate Ed Kironde, Which one are you talking about? There is settlement and there is settlement! I too, think and believe that any Ugandan can formally settle in any part on our Ugandan soil. However there are settlements and settlements. Check out that demarcation membrane. You know, so Security Camps or Protected Villages (what ever the epithet) are settlements too. There is the Host and the in comer. Here, the Host is the state or Movement regime. In the other cases you refer to, it is the institution of the community concerned in agreement with the legitimate national Land regulation who is the Host or Tenant. How is it in other parts of Uganda? What does the constitution say? Do the Kingdoms have any delegated authority? If some one comes to your home and request to purchase some piece of land from you to settle on is different from if the same individual comes to you, Chases you out of your compound and takes over your house or build his own on your compound. Or do you see the two cases as legally identical? Say if the Acoli that have settled else where in Uganda in fluxed those parts of Uganda outside Acoli region while simultaneously the tribe concerned (erg. Baganda) are confined to State controlled Camps, would they have accepted it? People have always settled elsewhere. But a State organized transformation as such is not the same thing. If you know Gulu, you would know that the kind of Hospitality Ugandan stretch to each other already existed in Acoli just as in Kampala at Namuwongo, Wabigalu, Kibuli, Naguru etc., osv. In Bukedi, the Itesot are almost more that native Badama (Jophadola). In Gulu you have Kirombe, Kasubi, Kanyagoga etc, which are predominantly Bantu-Acoli areas. The issue in question is of a different sort. Your argument is about the sort freedom of Ugandaness, settlement and amalgamation that already exist. In other words, your argument is out of context. Lets put things within perspective. The correct approach is to first repatriate the HOST TRIBE to their legitimate land (areas). There after can they legally or formally welcome settlers according to in statute land acquisition procedures. As asked, what does the constitution say? In Buganda for example, can any body just settle on some one elses land or claim any piece of Land merely because he is Ugandan too?! How is the process there? One more thing, are you not counting Internally displaced Acoli refugees among those "Acoli that have settled outside Acoli district"?

She accused the daughter of getting intimate with her man. "This is beyond human imagination. How can a mother and a daughter share the same man? Anyway, even if it happens it was not right for the woman to kill her own daughter," the area LC-III chairman, Mr Besigye Kyerere, said. The Kabale Police Commander, Mr Martin Amoru, said the mother has been arrested. He identified the accused as Ms Allen Tumwiine, 38, and the deceased as Phionah Nsiime, 14, a primary five pupil. Kyerere said that mother and daughter first clashed early this year but the village council intervened. Their man was expelled from the village. "I was personally shocked when Miriyano [boyfriend] resurfaced in his former lovers [Allen] home," he said. Kyerere said things got worse when the said boyfriend gave the daughter Shs 500 for a snack at school.

As reported by MISNA sources, along with the women the Ugandan soldiers also detained 14 children, all sons and daughters of Kony. According to the military commander of the Gulu district, Padi Ankunda, Kony's wives - all armed and able combatants - can be considered real 'veterans' of the movement, tied to the LRA for many years. The group of 'Olum' (grass - as the rebels are called by the people) was intercepted in Cwere, around 14km east of Gulu (administrative centre of the homonymous northern Ugandan district) by a mobile patrol of Kampala forces. Commander Ankunda did not provide ulterior details on the circumstances of their arrest, only indicating that the large group of rebels was headed by some key figures of the movement. The news was learned with curio sity and concern in Gulu, given that the rebels normally avoid nearing the city, closely controlled by the military. Since 1986 the LRA rebels, headed by their leader Joseph Kony, have been devastating the northern Ugandan districts: in 17 years of terror they tortured and killed tens of thousands of people (at least 100-thousand victims), abducting over 20-thousand children, reduced to slavery or forcedly enrolled in the rebel lines. > [BO] > > > > >"And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall march ahead.

Dont know if this is official visit, otherwise, I really do not know who would inform the Acoi community in scandinavia. Some former executive of the defunct ASS, perhaps?! You realise that association does not exist any longer? Try with Stephen Onekgiwu Ocaya or Ocure Ocaya Mike in Uppsala. Some one told me the Acoli team is putting up (residing) there. They should help you better if you wish to meet the delegation. Today as you know is a busy day (following the official ceremony in memory of the late foreign minister Anna Lindh).

Re: ugnet_: Re: Help Acholi rediscover themselves
BULL SHIT PROPAGANDA AND COMPLETE DISTORTION OF ACOLI REALITY. I do not live in the mediaeval era being described!! The ruthless LRA have nothing to do with Acoli. What kind of pride is that to slaughter your own? Where I come from, the Acoli are one of the most liberal beings far away from the bullshit. In Uganda almost all Acoli (so called substantial over class types) are married to women from other tribes. I went to Tororo Collage and never saw the Acoli students always walk in flocks. On the contrary, the Acoli students were always the most liberal (and indeed many of us became prefects because of that quality) mixing with varied tribes. In fact we used to comment on the students from Samia-bugwe as flock-students If these days Acoli students have turned into "flock" type then it has its natural explanation somewhere else (perhaps a social consequence of prevalent political dilemma?) A bullshit pro-LRA propaganda spiced with some truth? The warrior stuff is also wrong. Acoli dominate the army because there are hardly any alternative employment opportunity in our region. After the second world war, the returnee soldiers from the Kampala and Jinja areas became Office assistants, Medical assistants, Clerical officers, Labor union officers, Court assistants, police officers, business men etc. Those from the North did not have those opportunities. THEY RESORTED TO REMAINING IN THE ARMY while their mates from the South became civil servants. Even in the UPDF, most of the soldiers from the South and West engage in business and therefore are reluctant to fight and die leaving behind heaps of money and flush life styles. Ours do not have those opportunities so they stay. Perhaps a major indication of Acolis liberal nature is the fact that they have never had any single Kingdom. And how all the unscrupulous Ugandan political groups use them. You experts perhaps can educate me on this: "When I see Acoli names (original names) like OKELLO, ODONG, ATUBE, OMARA, OCHENG .etc., I DO NOT SEE ANY NAME THAT INDICATE THE EXISTENCE OF THE THE KIND OF SOCIAL OR MILITARY HISTORY.

ugnet_: Re: Cabinet endorses new land acquisition Bill
THIS IS REALLY A SEROUS MATTER. Land is serious matter! It is serious matter in Mubende, Acoli, Buganda, Zimbabwe and indeed all over the world. The Red Indians are still struggling to recover their lost rights however hopeless the outcome seems. That is Land. I concur with Ldt. Ogaba. The way I se it, the Northern Ugandan regions should withhold concession from the Land Bill recently approved by the government until when the natives are properly repatriated into their former LAND and are able to actively participate in the discussions over their land issues. At the moment it is wrong because they have basically been removed from their land to the so-called Protected Villages (LIBERATED FROM LAND OWNERSHIP) WHAT DO OUR MPs SAY? Rgds Noc´l Lukaka, We are getting back to square one. Watch out for those Salim Saleh's, Rhodesians, etc vying for Acholi land for "investment", since it is now "empty". After all, they used to grow tobacco there, a staple of these people. Ogaba Cabinet endorses new land acquisition Bill CABINET has approved a proposal to allow government compulsorily acquire land or property for investment, writes Richard Mutumba. A source told The New Vision yesterday that according to the proposal, compensation shall not be a pre-condition for the land acquisition, as it usually takes time for government to find the money. Compensation should be maintained but should not be prior to acquisition or expropriation, the source quoted Cabinet members as saying. The source said the Cabinet last week raised the need to harmonise Articles 26 and 237. The former provides that compulsory acquisition of land must be only necessary for public use or in the interest of defence, public safety, order, morality or health. Article 237 provides that Government or a local government may, subject to Article 26 of the Constitution, acquire land in the public interest. However, the term public interest is not defined under that Article. The source said Cabinet has proposed a constitutional amendment to handle Article 26. The amendment would introduce the element of compulsory acquisition of land not only for public use but also include land required for investment. The source said the possibility would be to adopt the Kenyan approach which provides for property being compulsorily acquired in the interests of promoting the public benefit.

Atuhaire September 5, 2003 Exile radio up to fight Movement KAMPALA - Ugandans living in exile have started a short wave radio station to 'give an alternative view on the politics of the country'. A Ugandan political activist living in exile said that the radio, based in the German city of Berlin, will be launched on August 16 by two exiled politicians, former President Milton Obote and Col. Kizza Besigye, a losing presidential candidate in 2001. Col. Besigye and Mr Obote will be hosted together in a one-hour talk show, Mr Godfrey Elum Ayoo told The Monitor in a telephone interview from his German base. "They will talk about politics and the need to redirect the democratisation process in Uganda," he said. The two leaders will speak on the radio again on August 17 from 6-6:30 p.m. "It's an opportunity for them to use this platform to reach out to people in Uganda without endangering the lives of journalists working in Uganda," he said.Ayoo said yesterday that Radio Rhino International-Africa (RRIA) will broadcast in English from 17.555 Short Wave. The radio will broadcast from 6-6:30 p.m. on weekdays and from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. on weekends. Ayoo, who is also the director of RRIA, said the station's signal would be received in east, central and parts of South Africa. He said that for proper reception, listeners in Uganda would have to place antennas of their respective radio sets at 145?. Obote, the President of Uganda Peoples Congress and twice deposed by the army from State House, has been living in exile in Zambia since 1985. Besigye fled the country in August 2001 in the aftermath of that year's disputed presidential elections. He cited harassment from security agencies. He lives in exile mostly in South Africa. Ayoo said yesterday that the radio would help counter the Movement government's 'intolerance to free and independent press in Uganda'. "RRIA is a declaration of an airwave campaign in the liberation, protection and promotion of the freedoms of expressions and the rights to information by the press, mass media and the people of Uganda," Ayoo said in an e-mailed statement to The Monitor. He said the radio would cover news on current events, politics, economy, health, education, culture and environment in its daily broadcasts. The activist, who has been living in exile since 1985, said RRIA will counter the NRM regime's 'intimidation, harassment, and forceful closures of private independent radio stations and newspapers and barring of accurate reporting especially on wars and insecurity where the UPDF is overtly or covertly involved in and outside Uganda'. "Certainly we shall show that there are things you cannot control and these include the airwaves," he said. © 2003 The Monitor Publications Gook "You can't separate peace from freedom because no one can be at peace unless he has his freedom."- Malcom X MSN 8 helps ELIMINATE E-MAIL VIRUSES.

ugnet_: Fwd: What is Hon. Akec saying?
From: noc´l gaumoy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: What is Hon. Akec saying? Date: Fri, 5 Sep 2003 11:35:16 +0200 What is Hon. Akech up to?! If it is language problem I can contain that. To me however, her choice of words or construction for this matter is hazardous. THE TRUTH IS ACOLI ABHOR THE LRA. When Hon. Akec says: "We also know that there are children giving up rebellion and coming back home, but there are instances where their families send them back. There was a girl who came back with sh3m and said she was tired of the war. But her mother asked her how she could come back when she could get so much money from the bush," And then go ahead to console her soul: "said the majority of the Acholi do not support the war.. The majority of the Acholi population is very exhausted with the war, they are traumatised and sick and want the war to end very fast." I get scared and I feel a little some football match in my tummy. Hon. Akec is being treacherous. The number / magnitudes of cases Akec is referring to is too microscopic to warrant the use of "THE MAJORITY OF ACOLI". S e is giving legitimacy to a situation that can be misinterpreted for a COMMON OCCURRENCE (even though the majority are against). The correct version is: ACOLI LOATH THE LRA as much as all perpetrators of atrocity. Point blank!!

vers not only children and youths but also adult education. More over, emphasizes not only education for all but QUALITATIVE EDUCATION FOR ALL.

The Ugandan government has perhaps gone a good way along and become exemplary. But how about these militias, do they not need education? In other parts of Uganda perhaps, but in Acoli the children and youths who could be recruited into the militia are the very same ones who are I need of education and childcare as stipulated in the UNESCO declarations. So bad is the demography! What is the program for the rehabilitation of these militias after the war? I would prefer that the Acoli (who already form a remarkable majority in the UPDF), be shifted over to whichever command this militia thing falls under.

Re: ugnet_: FEDERO IS A REAL FANTASY
Mate Mulindwa, I was thinking, is not that Federo bully on the making already? I am trying to "Fantasize" that the Rhinos and Arrows could easily backdoor federo. rgds noc´l From: "Mulindwa Edward" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> CC: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,"Anne Mugisha" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: ugnet_: FEDERO IS A REAL FANTASY Date: Mon, 1 Sep 2003 19:22:04 -0400 Omukulu Pike Adding to my friend Kasangwawo's very intelligently produced facts I would as well like to make the following observations. Who are the Federalist? One must ask him/her self this question if you are addressing this very important question on or about the people/s who are trying to change our nation for ever, from Unitary to federalism. Is it only a Mukulu Kibuuka's dream? Do we have a Ugandan structure out there which strongly believes that Federalism is the solution to Uganda's problem/s? And the answer is a pure No. So we come back to the grass roots and ask our selves the basic question, who are the people yapping about federalism in Uganda? They are the Democratic Party members who are trying to see that DP can get a hand in Buganda. You see DP has had a huge problem to get a hold in Buganda, they have a common enemy by the name UPC. So there had to devise a means to get a hand on Buganda if DP will ever have a dream to lead Uganda. So the attack on its politics through federalism. And the connected plan goes this way, let us gain the support of Buganda by telling Buganda that through federalism Mutebi will be the president of Uganda. And the ill informed Baganda apparently bought that crap. If you look attentively to the postings on Fedenet, and if you listen very carefully to the feds you will realise that they are not talking about changes in Uganda's political achive, what is taking place in Fedenet discussion group is the utter attack and destruction of Obote and UPC. Now as a non UPC member must wonder why? And the answer is this, DP has only one public enemy. UPC and Obote. That is why Federalists have failed all along to state their case with out mentioning Nakulabye, the attack of Lubiri and so on. Now the Kibuuka's have at least got the audecy of publicly declaring them selves as sympathisers of DPs but the Kasangwawo's can not reach that stage for they even have a problem calling them selves their right names, (Which we now know by the way). For the record, Federalism is a very good political structure, can it work in Uganda? Is a discussion of another day. But it is very wrong for DP as a Political party to hide its self into a sheep's cloth while using a good man like Mwaami Kibuuka to sell an entity that we MIGHT use in Uganda at a later time. That is very wrong. And it is as wrong as trying to use UNAA in Boston for the selling of the same crap. Ugandans are getting better in following issues that matter on their nation, and DP must recognise that. And thanks to Ugandans for being smart and looked through this crap, Fedenet discussion group destruction refers.

I do not know if you have ever been fighting or fought in your childhood (I have never been the cruel type neither), but I do not recall that in the course of FIGHTING / wrestling with OPONENTS we did banged some passer-by or anyone elses face and bragged that we have fought our opponent. Is that what you call fighting? Matek, you are a politician and a member of the UPCs so called PPC. We commonality depend on your sense of balance, epoch-making mood and leadership. You are not supposed to come with void sweeping statements at critical times like this.

We are in a situation where the UPDF does not provide enough security guarantees for the Upcountry populace and the people NO LONGER want to be massacred passively. So, if the Ugandan government (rd.

Why do you not provide a concise account of the alternative so that we commonality can see the tenability in it for my people to see that indeed the LRA will stop maiming and abducting innocent Acoli and start fighting the UPDF instead? Assuming the situation is such that the UPDF does not want to fight. And that fight or no fight the regime will rule on (their mandate through). And the LRA is killing innocent people now.

ugnet_: Re: WON NYACI WITH THE BARRELLS, Rwot Langony..
What a question, I do not know, man! I guess, none under PRESENT form. There are lots of vital puzzles that the experts must first look into. There are many UN conventions as well as Ugandan constitution violated here. For example, if it is established that the UPDF is incapable of providing security and protection for Ugandan, then naturally other forms of ingripande (options?!) should be seriously considered. In the event the Ugandan Parliament approves of such, several of those loopholes have to be sealed: 1) Resource fördelning (sharing, allocation?!) is one. When Locals take over the responsibility of the Army, THEY SHOULD ALSO TAKE OVER MILITARY RESOURSES. They should have access to the funds available. In which case the Parliament have to decide on the administration and transfer of those resources to the local defense council. This includes of course, compensation in form of salaries since they are taking over the official liability of the Army. 2) Secondly, the age limits of those youths have to be established. This will not be easy. Uganda signed the UN-convention on education in Dakar (1990?!). Which guarantees all youth not only education but also qualitative education (I have forgotten the official reference of that convention, I check it out). There, Uganda has already failed in the North. 3) To the best of my knowledge, the number of Acoli that would suffice such an operation cannot be raised without touching on MINORS. That is my knowledge of the demographical catastrophe in Acoli. So the experts have a lot to crack here. 4) Acoli already have huge representation in the UPDF. Perhaps those can be transferred to the Local defense. 5) Perhaps the biggest question is of course under whose jurisdiction the local defense will operate. How the Local defense will be constituted. They should most probably be under the local council. Answer those and we can discuss further. rgds noc´l From: patrick nokrach <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: "Culture, Peace and A Sustainable Future" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: WON NYACI WITH THE BARRELLS, Rwot Langony..

ugnet_: Re: Ministers sell Arrow Group plan in Gulu .....(wrong approach!!!!!!)
Wrong approach! Are we in a Lion eat grass situation? I do not think this is correct approach. It is one thing for the communities to structure their security infrastructure as a resort due to unprovided constitutional protection. Another, for the GOVERNMENT to neglect its liability. The ministers should work on the STATE ARMY and parliamentary support. They should ensure STATE PROTECTION to the citizen. It is not a contradiction here. That demarcation must be clear. The order should have been reversed. Ordinarily, mobilization of our defenseless citizens should FOLLOW THE STATE ARMY´S FAILURE. First then, should the people take matters in their hands. At the moment, it appears to me that the UPDF has not failed to curb down LRA insurgence. They have merely displayed INDIFFERENCE and negligence. The resources the UPDF have at hand are overwhelming. The WILL is a little si or so. Are the ministers telling us that the mighty UPDF army that traverse the entire Lake Region and spitfire IN DEFENCE OF THE CONGOLESE can not stand up to defend its own? Or are they telling us that Uganda does not have an army? The ministers should be ashamed if they come to mobilize the people to take to arms instead of coming to account for the security the government is to provide. Whereas the need to train and organize local defense could be an option to resort to, at ministerial level, it does not seem correct to me. Now they are accounting for inadequate state protection. It is almost as if they are now on a race to grab a few popular points from the peoples agony. I TOO CAN RESORT TO THE THINKING THAT IN THE ABSENCE OF STATE PROTECTION, OUR PEOPLE SHOULD BE TRAINED TO STRUCTURE AND COORDINATE THEIR SECURITY ENGAGEMENT. Thereby not said that they take the responsibility of the army.

The ministers are Ms Ruth Nankabirwa (state for Defence), Ms Betty Akech (state for Security) and Mr Okello Oryem (state for Sports). The ministers are talking to people in displaced camps, local councils and non-governmental organisations. "We are trying to talk to civilians to contribute towards ending this Kony war," Nankabirwa said yesterday. "The Acholi should emulate the Iteso and Langi who have decided to actively participate in the war," she said. The ministers yesterday visited the Gulu Save the Children Organisation (Gusco) and World Vision, the two NGOs which are at the forefront of rehabilitating formerly abducted children. The ministers also visited Amoro Internally Displaced Persons camp 56km west of Gulu town. It has more than 40,000 inhabitants. The army is also trying to mobilise a popular civilian uprising against the LRA rebels. "We are also mobilising. If we come across youths who are willing to take up arms against the rebels, we shall arm them," the army's 4th Division spokesman Lt. Paddy Ankunda said. The Arrow Group is a local militia fighting rebels in northern and northeastern Uganda. Meanwhile, the UN Secretary General's representative for the internally displaced people, was last evening expected to spend time with night commuters on Gulu town streets. The commuters are children who leave their homes in the suburbs of the towns every night in northern Uganda for fear of being abducted by the rebels. They sleep under the open sky at taxi parks or shopfront verandas. Dr Francis Deng was to spend about two hours with hundreds of families that take refuge on the streets. He met several leaders in Kitgum yesterday and was also expected to visit displaced peoples camps in Gulu today. © 2003 The Monitor Publications - Want to chat instantly with your online friends?

Date: Wed, 6 Aug 2003 16:12:06 +0300 To all, I would like to introduce to you a very compelling human situation of the Acholi people in northern Uganda. Many of you probably have heard about President Bush's glorification of the HIV/AIDs success in Uganda. This is could be true in one way but false on the other. Today, there are over 800,000 Acholi people forced by the government of Yoweri Museveni to live in concentration camps in the northern part of the country. This is ostensibly to save them from attacks by rebels of the Lord's Resistance Army, LRA. But instead, the government troops have turned against the civilians by raping the women, girls and men thus infecting them with the HIV virus. As for today, the HIV rate in that part of the country is over 30%. Sadly, this was intentionally left out of the Bush visit. Other than that, since 1986 when Museveni became president of Uganda, over 300,000 Acholi have been killed, thousands maimed and amputated and over 20,000 children ubducted by the rebels. I will be showing vidoes and pictures on the conditions starting September 2003.

Why do our men jump at the first opportunity offered to them by the Western Imperialists to kill themselves and all of us?

ugnet_: TOO MUCH OF LITTLE MIXED-UP!!!
TOO MUCH OF LITTLE MIXED-UP!! Subsequent anti-LRA development in Teso and Lango reveals a lot of black holes: Firstly, it tells us a lot about support for (or lack of) the LRA. There has been some paradoxical, though distorted, argument by certain elements (including some PPC representatives) that the LRA brutality was despite all, warranted. I believe, we now see clear evidence on the contrary. We now see people in Lango and Teso who stand up to say no amount of political madness is worth the blood of their commonality. The massage is sound and clear: Dont mess with our people! So what consensus does the LRA have? Secondly, we can no longer blink to the fact that Acoli community leadership has been a stumbling block. The contrast in mentality, approach and structure tells a lot. In Lango for example, The Won Nyaci or Rwot Nyaci himself plus the youth leaders (ref: Rupiny) leads the cohesive anti LRA campaign. In Acoli there is no such rally. We have said it before; that in all organizations the toughest hurdle to jump is that from within. I think now it is clear that LRA atrocities in Acoli have persisted due to among others lack of unity from within (schism from within the community leadership). Analogue with similar situations in other regions now transpire that fact that several people established before but got scourged for it. I believe now we can no longer over look the fact that internal cleansing from within the peace vanguards is essential. We cannot have democrats, reactionaries, republicans, revolutionaries, socialists and god knows, all operating from the same platform. It should not be enough just to be an Acoli to involve in any Acoli endeavor. It has to be people who are committed and comply with the same ideal and approach.

Comrades and especially political so, Mates Aniap, Ocure and Matek this is especially for you, what are your personal positions? Seems to me that this is very serious development (positive or negative). It was not so long ago when certain observers pointed out the contrast in the magnitude of response and the structure of "ODURO" (cry of distress or call for help) in our northern districts. I believe it is very important that we get some CLEAR comments from our established political parties. Perhaps some people do not get the beef embroiled. As an Acoli, I would really want to know why the UPC for example, reacts differently to similar atrocious acts committed by the same perpetrators in varied locations? And from our Acoli leaders, we should also pressurize comments and opinions because it is our democratic rights to know how they really think about our peoples protection. And, most importantly, how they are biased. Please do not get me wrong, ethnicity is not ethnicism! I notice that many PPC members have not reacted. Sufferance is support! When the vampires spread dung in Acoli, politicians are quick to couple it with national politics where as in other areas as in Lango and Teso for this matter, the PEOPLE`S IMMEDIATE SECURITY IS DEVINE PRIORITY. Yet, they tell my people to do nothing but wait for the movement government to be overthrown. WHY IS IT SO? Why does the UPC not tell the Langi and Atesot not to structure their security because that is constitutionally a government liability only (as they always advice the Acoli)? Moreover, there is risk that the local commonality sees the LRA as Acoli. Many have pointed out this contrast. President Musseveni for one pointed out this.

Hejsan Mary, Seems to me that although a spade is being called the small spoon here, IT IS LOVE they are referring to. It is love mystified as SEX. Our man appears to have craved love from his wife. That probably explains why other options were excluded. Some love have mite.

In this world where women outnumber men almost 3 to one why wouldn't the man talk to another woman before he starved and finally killed himself And let us not forget that in our culture our men run the show.

Re: ugnet_: Ex-UPA Rebels to Aid Army in Teso
Brotherhoods and sisterhoods of man, There is some thing strange in contrasting counter reactions to rebel terror in Acoli, Lango and Teso. In Acoli, there is always this mystified aura of indifference and sufferance. In the other districts, the perpetrators are more "universally" defined. How do you see it? rgds noc´l From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: ugnet_: Ex-UPA Rebels to Aid Army in Teso Date: Thu, 26 Jun 2003 21:55:05 EDT Ex-UPA Rebels to Aid Army in Teso http://allafrica.com/publishers.html?passed_name=New%20Vision&passed_location=Kampala";>New Vision (Kampala) June 26, 2003 Posted to the web June 26, 2003 Nathan Etengu And John Thawite Kampala Former rebels of the Uganda People's Army (UPA) have regrouped and joined the UPDF to fight the LRA rebels who recently entered Teso region. The rebels, together with their former commanders, were among the contingent of forces deployed to various destinations in Soroti and Katakwi districts on Tuesday. Kasese resident district commissioner Musa Ecweru has temporarily left his office and joined government forces to fight against the insurgency. Ecweru, who hails from Teso, said he was marshalling veterans of the defunct UPA to fight alongside the UPDF. Ecweru, who was the defence minister in the UPA, said he would return to his office after the LRA was contained. "I am lending a hand to the army commander, Brig. Aronda Nyakairima, who is overseeing the operation," he said. Ecweru, in a separate interview on Monday, said the rebels would either be defeated on Teso land or sent back to where they came from. He said former UPA rebel commanders and their combatants including Lt. Andrew Akongel, Habibu and others, had offered to join the UPDF. Sam Otai, a former UPA deputy commander-in-chief, told the new vision as he boarded a trailer to northern Soroti that, "We know the area very well and are therefore committed to routing the thugs out of our land." Kaberamaido MP John Eresu said former army commander Lt. Gen. Jeje Odongo had requested the president to allow the UPA former combatants to join the fight against the LRA rebels. He said more than 2,000 former rebels had offered to fight alongside the UPDF to rout out the LRA rebels from the Teso region. The UPA fought the Movement government from 1987 to 1993 when most of its combatants surrendered. LRA leader Kony reportedly operated in Teso region when his rebels were still on good terms with the UPA rebels. _ Protect your PC - get McAfee.com VirusScan Online http://clinic.mcafee.com/clinic/ibuy/campaign.asp?cid=3963

According to Ugandan radio, army spokesman Major Shaban Bantariza said 29 girls had been kidnapped when rebels attacked Rwara school near the town of Soroti on Tuesday. "Students ran away from the school in disarray, making it difficult to ascertain the number affected," he stated. The Ugandan army's northeastern division commander, Col Andrew Guti, confirmed to IRIN on Wednesday that rebels had attacked the school and ambushed a passenger bus in the same district, but the number of casualties was not yet known. Earlier reports said an estimated 100 students were abducted from the school, while three people were reportedly killed when the bus was attacked. Observers note that the LRA appears to be expanding its sphere of attack. It has also recently carried out attacks in Adjumani, Katakwi and Soroti districts - the latter two being hundreds of kilometres southeast of Gulu, the principal town in the north and hitherto a main target of LRA raids. The government insists that the recent surge in LRA attacks does not signify any victory by the rebels. President Yoweri Museveni has publicly stated it is because the rebels are under so much pressure in their traditional areas of occupation that they are spreading southwards. "Now is a matter of mere survival for those rebels," he told the state-owned daily 'New Vision'. "They are just roaming bandits...they can't sustain it."

"They raided Lwala Girls Secondary School in Kaberamaido district and took away about 100 girls," army spokesman Maj. Shaban Bantariza told the AFP by telephone. "But our helicopters are trying to locate them so that they may be rescued," Bantariza said. Roman Catholic Church sources in Soroti confirmed the mass abduction at the Catholic-founded school, found 6 miles from Dokolo trading centre in Lira, the AFP reported. The school has about 400 students. The rebels have extended their areas of operation from northern Uganda to the Teso sub region. Kaberamaido LCV Chairman, Mr Victor Ekesu, told The Monitor on phone that the rebels entered the area between 11 p.m. on Monday night and 6 a.m. on Tuesday. "My brother, the situation here is bad. The rebels yesterday attacked us and abducted girls," Mr Ekesu said from Kaberamaido. Kaberamaido borders Soroti district to the west. The district is in panic according to Ekesu, who told The Monitor that he has himself fled to Kalaki sub-county, more than 15km from the Kaberamaido district headquarters. The rebels also looted merchandise from neighbouring Otuboi trading centre. During the raid on Lwala mission, Ekesu said, the rebels roughed up a Catholic priest, Fr William Ejuru. They grabbed Shs 3 million from the house of an elderly priest, Fr Van de Hardt. They also beat up the 70-year-old missionary. There was anxiety in Soroti town yesterday morning as the army moved out more battle vehicles and troops along the Soroti-Mbale road. At 6 a.m. a Gateway Bus was ambushed by suspected rebels at Katine-Kalaki junction, 12km from Soroti town along the Soroti-Lira road. The bus was travelling from Ochero, Kaberamaido district. The Monitor could not establish the causality figures, but one man Peter Ebucu and two others were confirmed dead.Several passengers were injured while others were taken captive. "The driver was hit, but managed to drive through the ambush up to a certain point, where he stopped the bus, because he had over-bled, and the locals helped him and took him to hospital," Bantariza said last night. Fifteen vehicles travelling from Lira to Soroti yesterday cancelled their journeys. The vehicles were supposed to move under a military convoy but the authorities felt it was unsafe to move even with army escort. © 2003 The Monitor Publications Gook "You can't separate peace from freedom because no one can be at peace unless he has his freedom."- Malcom X STOP MORE SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* --- End Message ---

Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2003 05:06:12 -0400 Netters Here we are with some facts coming out in today's New Vision. As I have stated before Federalists are looking for federal for Buganda, and we can twist all words as we love but those are the facts. Well here we are today when the Youths of Mpigi are asking for the very same thing promised to them by the federalists. In fact even Mr Kalule Sengo, a full MP stated and I quote " Be calm, Buganda will get federal any time." So if you have been out there thinking that federalists are fighting for a federal system in Uganda, go back to bed and wake up again. And it is this kind of double standards played by Federalists that has made them a joke, for the Ugandans of 2003 are not the same as the Ugandans of 1930 and you can count on that. What is coming up next? Well it is going to be the most interesting steps taken by Museveni, some schools of thought are stating that Museveni in his master plan of 2006 elections, he is going to make sure that Buganda has lost much of the land it had, then much of her properties will be sold off, and then the movement will sit with the federalists and offer them a some kind of half backed status in Uganda. And you bet Museveni has planed his third term thanks to the unfocused federalists. "Ffe akalulu Ka Museveni waffe" Em Mpigi Youth Want Federo The youth in Mpigi have vowed to pull out of the Movement if it refused to grant Buganda federo, reports Patrick Serugo. While touring development projects in Gomba county recently, area MP Kalule Sengo was told by the youth that they were to pull out of the system if the Government did not grant a federo system to Buganda by 2006. "We are tired of being deceived every time by the Government. We have agitated for federo for so long but our dear government has kept a deaf ear,'' the youth told Sengo in Bukandula village. At a meeting attended by the LC3 chairman Kabulassoke sub-county, Moses Muzuula, residents said they were likely to support the 'third term' if Buganda was granted a federo system of government. "We are ready to support the third term if the government grants federo to Buganda kingdom,'' they said. They asked why the Movement leaders did raise the federo issue to the Constitutional Review Commission. They asked Ssengo to mobilise fellow MPs to press the Government on federo. However, Ssengo advised them to go slow on federo and assured them that federo would be on their way any time. "Be calm, Buganda will get federo any time,'' Ssengo advised them.
