Recently, there has been controversy over the supposed conflict in Uganda between its government and the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) led by Joseph Kony. The attention given this topic is thanks to the humanitarian group Invisible Children.
Make no mistake, Kony did orchestrate all the cruel acts which he is credited. For over twenty years, he terrorized the people of Uganda, but he hasn’t had a very noticeable footprint since he fled into the jungles of Congo sometime around 2006.
Since then, Uganda has been doing well for itself. Not too long ago, Uganda was portrayed as a chaotic and fear filled war zone, and yet recently it was named one of the top travel destinations for 2012 by the travel guide “The Lonely Planet.” However, most people won’t want to go to Uganda anytime soon for recreational pursuits.
Overall, Invisible Children and especially the Kony 2012 video are not popular in Uganda.
