As stated in a previous blog, I applaud the President of the U.S. for sending “special advisors” to Uganda to help the nation rid itself of the Lord’s Revolutionary Army once and for all. Its leader Joseph Kony should have been caught and hung decades ago.
The LRA has been active in Uganda for 25 years. So the question is why would the U.S. offer its help now? What was it that sparked that decision? Why is it in the best interests of the U.S. to now offer to help our friend and ally rid itself of this pest?
It could very well be the answer is oil. Click HERE to see what I mean.
It implies that billionaire liberal activist George Soros has interests in Uganda oil operations. Since the turn of the century, Uganda has been creeping towards a viable oil industry. A half dozen companies attempting to locate and drill for oil have come and gone, but within the last two years, Tullow Oil Company has come the closest to actually getting petroleum out of the ground. Except that they have just deferred any real production to 2012 citing “logistical issues.” Hmmmm.
Oil operations are centered around the north end of Lake Edward which is located both north and west in Uganda. This is important to note because these are the traditional areas of operations for Kony’s band of fanatics. He was chased out of the north of Uganda to the West into Congo but distances are not that great and he could run sorties into the oil fields to cause damage if he wants. So here we are: Uganda wants secure oil operations, Soros wants secure oil operations, Soros pulls Obama’s strings so 100 special ops forces landed at Entebbe last Wednesday.
Soros and his “open society” organization is trying to inflict his and Western mores on various countries in East Africa. The leadership is used to help coming with strings. But in this case, if Museveni can rid his country of Kony, a few strings may be worth it. He will deal with the other forces – including a softer stance on homosexuality – later. And what the hey, if Soros wants to do business in Uganda, let him come. But he doesn’t come without strings.
