This makes me sad in a few ways 1. You completely fail to take into account social demographics in African countries in even the least 2. You have absolutely no idea who Kony is outside that documentary. 3. You can post that all you want the problem won't get solved since it revolves around a fundamental problem with corrupt government and military officials. 4. You entirely neglect the huge butt military intervention by the UN led by the US in Somalia in the 90's and they got absolutely devastated, they made a movie, it won 2 oscars I believe, not even gonna say the name, it'll be like a trivia for you! ;D Hint: It's the greatest failure by the UN in all of history in terms of budget and lives lost and probably the reason why the US is never setting foot in Africa ever again. You know you have a terrible country when the US doesn't want to kill off 3/4 of it's military for your oil. Dearest Kasooi, I assume you refer to the film "Blawkhawk Down". Yes military invention in Somalia was a disaster! Even the people we tried to help applauded the scenes in the film you refer to when in was played in Somalia.
I've known about Kony for some time now. In reality, despite some hollow talk, he doesn't seem to have political goals other than maintaining his power.
The sheer intentionally cruelty and brutally involved in this war defies description! There have been horrible episodes in other wars, but people speak out about them and attempts are made to bring war criminals to justice! The book displayed below describes the armies of children, who are recruited to participate in the senseless killings! This war seems to be the sadistic vision of the most depraved war criminals imaginable with Kony at the center!
www.newsreview.com/sacramento/Content?oid=917559 The title of Peter Eichstaedt’s book is a clue to some of the brutality and inhumanity contained within. First Kill Your Family: Child Soldiers of Uganda and the Lord’s Resistance Army details how the LRA kidnaps Ugandan children, forcing the boys to kill and using the girls as sex slaves. In December 2008, the LRA struck in Congo, hacking and shooting to death 200 villagers. The guerrilla soldiers grotesquely fight on, with no clear goal and no end in sight.

Kony is a horrible evil. Kony 2012 and Invisible Children have their own issues though, and I would rather not support those specific groups.
