Kony: Lord’s Resistance Army
Campaign to catch evil warlord Kony goes viral
A video created to raise awareness about vile militia leader Joseph Kony has now racked up more than 26million views since being posted on YouTube on March 5, and is being backed by a host of celebrities. Kony is the leader of Ugandan military group the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) and is wanted for committing crimes against humanity including rape, abduction and murder. For 26 years his rebel group has systematically kidnapped more than 30,000 African children — forcing girls to become sex slaves, brainwashing boys into becoming child soldiers and brutally killing those who don’t comply. Now American activist group Invisible Children has created the half hour video, Kony 2012, in a bid to bring the dictator to justice. READ MORE HERE
