Mr. musaazi:
It is reported that this child was killed by elicopter gunship! The LRA to my limited knowledge does not own any elicopter, leave alone gunship!!
There is need to settle this war peacefully, not "The
picture you have put is one of the reasons why UPDF should not hurriedly leave the north at the hands of Kony and LRA,..". Otherwise there may be real need to have between 70 to 100,000 rebels in Uganda to put the Musaazis to a peace path, or where they, with their war rhetorics, belong!

The picture you have put is one of the reasons why UPDF should not hurriedly leave the north at the hands of Kony and LRA, because they are the ones killing innocent civillians like the one you have attached on this posting. Mr. Otim, how do you sleep at night after telling all the lies and even using dead people to even tell more lies. May God save us from ourselves in Africa.
