Look Ochan, are you illiterate. I have already said (please read my
posting
CAREFULLY, this is the problem with people of your ilk, you see things
in
one dimension, a one way train gone amok), i have not denied that there
were
crimes comitted by NRA soldiers, indeed even the president admitted to
the
fact, but again as i stated earlier, these erring soldiers were dealt
with...and i also said that this was in stack contrast to what your
brother
Obote (whos crimes don't seem to register on your radar screen, i guess
to
you every northerner is rightous), did to my people in the south where
it is
also clearly documented that well over 300, 000 human beings perished as
a
result of excesses of UNLA. YOUR BROTHER OBOTE IS LISTED AS A FUGITIVE
(GO
TO THIS HUMAN RIGHTS WATCH SITE FOR FURTHER DETAIL:
http://www.hrw.org/press/2003/07/torturers072103-bck.htm). HE IS LISTED
IN
THE COMPANY OF THE LIKES OF BABY DOC, MAINGISTU AMONG OTHER NOTORIOUS
EX-DICTATORS/KILLERS OF THE LAST CENTURY. The evidence on Obote and his
crimes pales in contrast to the half-truths you posted against our
President, most of which was dealt with (again most erring soldiers were
dealt with).

Has Obote ever criticized his lawless soldiers and tribes men for the
atrocities they committed in the south? no. Did he ever try to solve the
problem? no. Has Obote ever apologized for horrendous crimes that
occured on
his watch (most of which he sanctioned)? no. On the other hand did
President
Museveni acknowledge that there were some criminal elements within the
ranks
of NRA (and for that matter UPDF)? yes, did he take steps to solve the
problem? yes (again erring soldiers were tried and punished). Has
president
Museveni ever apologized for some of the mis-adventures of govenment
soldiers? yes, he has even apologized to people of the north for
attrocities
perpetuated on them by one of there own (Kony). Further more President
Museveni is leading from the front, he is right now as we communicate in
the
north, seeing to the safety of notherners. I don't even think Obote ever
visited luwero, to sympathize with the bereaved at the time. Instead he
just
sent more soldiers to kill.
Mr. Ochan you have got to realise that we have our "people" too (it
appears
that is the kind of language you understand). Here is my argument with
you
fellows, i'll lay it out for you in very simple  terms; to you
northerners
(and this is my recent observation, initially i never viewed this as a
north/south problem), Obote never did anything wrong throghout his 10yrs
in
power (yet there is clear evidence at home and abroad to the contrary),
if
we as southerners express our obviously bad experience with Obote, you
northerners see us as liers, you show no empathy whatsoever, yet you
northerners want us to view our president Museveni (a southerner) as the
worst of the worst because of the conflict in the north, even though it
is
clear that Kony (a northerner) is responsible for most of the killing.
You
accuse us (southerners) of not showing enough concern and empathy. My
simple
response is this, i also care very much about my "poeple" and i also
think
that they deserve justice just as much as your "people" do, if you don't
acknowledge my claim for justice for my people then don't bother asking
me
about yours. I'm sorry i have to put it that plainly but to me that is
the
stack reality. I am not one to beat about the bush, i see things as they
are
and say it as i see it. So don't bother playing games with me, i see it
all
and i'll continue callig it as it is...and don't bother bringing up
things
like "enjoy the blood of my people" with me, it just shows me how naive
you
are.

Bwana Emmanuel Musaazi:

Thanks for your never ending escapist answers, or should I say 
nothing!  Where I am coming from, every single human life everywhere is 
precious.

Before I forget, I'll let you on a little secret going around.  I have 
heard people say that when God decides to take your life, He/She makes you 
insane first.  We could be witnessing it live here!

Lastly, I shall not dignify any more of your tirade with an answer again.

Continue enjoying the 'sweet' blood of my people, Bwana Musaazi.  Enjoy.

Museveni is leading from the front, he is right now as we communicate in the 
north, seeing to the safety of notherners. I don't even think Obote ever 
visited luwero, to sympathize with the bereaved at the time. Instead he just 
sent more soldiers to kill.

Mr. Ochan you have got to realise that we have our "people" too (it appears 
that is the kind of language you understand). Here is my argument with you 
fellows, i'll lay it out for you in very simple  terms; to you northerners 
(and this is my recent observation, initially i never viewed this as a 
north/south problem), Obote never did anything wrong throghout his 10yrs in 
power (yet there is clear evidence at home and abroad to the contrary), if 
we as southerners express our obviously bad experience with Obote, you 
northerners see us as liers, you show no empathy whatsoever, yet you 
northerners want us to view our president Museveni (a southerner) as the 
worst of the worst because of the conflict in the north, even though it is 
clear that Kony (a northerner) is responsible for most of the killing. You 
accuse us (southerners) of not showing enough concern and empathy. My simple 
response is this, i also care very much about my "poeple" and i also think 
that they deserve justice just as much as your "people" do, if you don't 
acknowledge my claim for justice for my people then don't bother asking me 
about yours. I'm sorry i have to put it that plainly but to me that is the 
stack reality. I am not one to beat about the bush, i see things as they are 
and say it as i see it. So don't bother playing games with me, i see it all 
and i'll continue callig it as it is...and don't bother bringing up things 
like "enjoy the blood of my people" with me, it just shows me how naive you 
are.
