The ‘Kony 2012′ Delusion

The ‘Kony 2012′ Delusion

The people behind this campaign are MASSIVELY misguided. Or it’s a CIA-sponsored psy-ops.
Take for example the fact that one of the 12 ‘policy makers’ (US politicians) that they are targeting to help them ensure Kony is arrested is George ‘Dubya’ Bush. The puppet president who presided over the murder of 1.5 million Iraqi civilians. And we’re all meant to believe that people like him are going to care about the plight of Ugandan children? Kony is Bush’s ideological brother for god’s sake.
Other than their complete ignorance of the fact that the US political elite is populated by the world’s worst war criminals, the makers of this video are also massively ignorant of the truth about WHY Uganda, and many other African nations, are subjected to the brutal excesses of war lords and have been for so many decades.
To cut a very long and complex story short, people like Joseph Kony (who, by the way, is no longer a real threat to the people of Uganda) and so many other African tin-pot dictators are the product of long-term US (CIA), British, Israeli and French interference in African nations.
Joseph Kony leads the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA). In 2010, the LRA crossed into Darfur in Sudan and since then have been enjoying the protection of the Sudanese military, and Sudan’s notorious president, Omar Hassan al-Bashir, who has been a longtime LRA patron. al-Bashir  is accused by the International Criminal Court of war crimes and genocide in Darfur. It should come as no surprise then that the CIA has long-standing and close ties with al-Bashir and Sudanese intelligence services.
So there you have it. The principal financier and protector of the Joseph Kony and the LRA is a genocidal dictator who is supported by the US government via the CIA. That’s just one degree of separation between the CIA and the LRA. Yet the ‘Kony 2012′ people believe they can lobby the US government to do something about Kony and the LRA!
The aim of the US (and other) governments has always been to destabilize African nations in order place into power any individual that would be amenable to the theft by US corporations of the resources of African nations. This destabilization process, which includes the massive and repeated provision of weapons to the war lords and thugs, inevitably leads to the killing and maiming of thousands of civilians. And it continues to this day.
Elliot Ross of the  Africa is a country blog sums up the problem with ‘Kony 2012′:

“To ask people to climb down from the soaring heights of “Kony 2012”, a place where they get to feel both sanctified and superior, and truly descend into the mire of history and confusion is simply too big a task. It would be boring and difficult and it would not be about Facebook or Angelina Jolie or coloured wristbands or me. When the euphoria evaporates and the Twittersphere has dried its tears (probably by the end of this week), all that remains will be yet another powerful myth of African degradation.”

In short, forget about ‘Kony 2012′. If you really want to make this world a better place, let’s start ‘Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Obama etc., 2012′. Let’s make them famous for their massive war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan, for the murder of up to 2 million Iraqi and Afghan civilians, and for the the children who continue, to this day, to be blown to pieces by US soldiers and US ‘drone’ aircraft under the Imperial war of aggression known as the ‘war on terror’.

BOSNIA: WITNESS TELLS HOW HE HELPED KILLING OVER 1,000 MUSLIMS

AKI, 28 February 2012

A prosecution witness in the trial of wartime Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic before the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia described in detail on Tuesday how he took part in the killing of over 1,000 Muslims in eastern town of Srebrenica in July 1995.

The witness, Drazen Erdemovic, a Croat who fought with Bosnian Serb forces during 1992-1995 war, said he and other seven Serb soldiers killed between 1,000 and 1,200 Muslims on a farm in the village of Pilica in mid-July 1995.

Erdemovic said his group was led to the execution site by a “tall and corpulent Serb lieutenant colonel”, whose name he wasn’t sure of, and told them all Srebrenica Muslim men who were taken prisoner and bused to Pilice should be killed.

He said the prisoners were in civilian clothes, some blindfolded and their arms tied. They were taken out in groups of ten and executed by Erdemovic and his men, the witness said.

Between 15 and 20 buses with prisoners had arrived to Pilice and execution lasted from about ten in the morning to 3 p.m., when another firing squad took over, Erdemovic told the court.

Erdemovic said he and other executioners were issued false documents after the execution to hide their identity. But he was arrested in Serbia in 1996, after he revealed the killing to an American journalist and was taken to the Hague tribunal.

He pleaded guilty and in a deal with the prosecution was sentenced to five years in jail, of which he served four years in Norway. Meanwhile, he has testified against six other defendants before the tribunal.

Karadzic has been indicted on eleven counts of genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity, allegedly committed by the forces under his command. The indictment centers on a massacre of over 7,000 Muslims in Srebrenica and 44-month siege and shelling of the capital Sarajevo.

Karadzic, who is defending himself, was arrested in Belgrade in 2008 and refuted the charges. Cross-examining Erdemovic on Tuesday, Karadzic contested his claims and said it was impossible to kill so many people in such a short time.
