See this news story from Uganda's New Vision on 1/8/12
I find this interesting for two reasons. First, Museveni seems tohave no problem welcoming a terrorist organization onto Embassy Row even though the al shabbab terrorists killed 80 of his citizens during the last World Cup Finals. Perhaps the Somalis are next. And second, this is clearly another failure of the Obama foreign policy. If we had a strong president, he would pressure our allies to shun Palestine as an aggressor nation to Israel just as we have – but then, I guess apparently he doesn’t have the clout or perhaps he doesn’t care or perhaps he doesn’t understand the strategic relationship the U.S. holds with Uganda.
In his defense, Museveni is good at “following the money.” Mahmoud Abbas looks like a money player, doesn't he? His Excellency welcomed the Aga Khan when he wanted to build a new hotel in Kampala. He welcomed Moammar Gadaffi when he wanted to build a $2 billion mosque/university on Old Kampala Hill. And now he’s welcoming Hamas. Let’s just see how further abetting the Muslim agenda in Uganda will play out.
