nuune Posted February 16, 2007 Uganda is about to send the rebel Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), as we know this rebel joined the national army, they are trained differently, and are kept aside, and are not allowed in public or in any government owned institutions, the majority of Ugandans don't want those rebels to become their guardian. These rebels are the one's responsible of torture, abductions, rape and killings. The government of Uganda decided not to use it's national army for any peacekeeping missions in the place that used to be Somalia, so they are using their rebels for that reason, an exile mission of the LRA, the plan is that they will never come back to Uganda because of what they committed is still in large and ugandan people don't want the rebels to integrate and mix with the national army of Uganda. This is to train them else where, rehabilitate them in Somalia, make a living in Somalia, and never be back to Uganda again. read more Ciidamada Uganda oo sabtida soo socoto imanaya Somalia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emperor Posted February 16, 2007 ^^so Somalia will become the strong hold and headquarter of notorious rebel movements of all Africa, with Snr Aideed's former USC's and A.Y's militia already present and Melez Tikree Army, forthcoming are joseph Kony's and Paul Kigame's rebel groups, well we will only need the Janjaweed gorillas and Charles Taylor's group to be added on that list. Could be a big a game to watch, what an entertainment this is... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xoogsade Posted February 16, 2007 ^ I would say it is an entertainment if I knew these rebel groups aren't coming to people they were told were expendable and that they can kill them as they please. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-Nomadique- Posted February 16, 2007 Ugandan troops to pacify Somalia Friday, 16 February, 2007, 10:50 AM Doha Time KAMPALA: The 1,500 Ugandan peacekeepers pledged to the African Union force for Somalia will be deployed solely in the country’s lawless capital Mogadishu, the peacekeeping mission said yesterday. The Ugandan force could go in as early as this weekend, and would secure Mogadishu while the AU awaits troops from other countries to arrive in other Somali cities, Paddy Ankunda, spokesman for the AU mission, said. Some 8,000 troops are expected in total. Uganda’s parliament voted on Tuesday to send troops to Somalia under an AU plan to pacify a nation rocked by unrelenting attacks by insurgents against the interim government. It is the first country to do so. “We can’t deploy all over Somalia. We’ll be in Mogadishu. 1,500 people is adequate (to secure Mogadishu),”Ankunda said. International pressure has grown for peacekeepers to deploy quickly to prevent the chaotic Horn of Africa country sliding back into anarchy after Ethiopian forces helped the transitional government oust Islamists in a December war. The Islamists had restored a degree of order to Mogadishu, which had been ruled by warlords since the overthrow of dictator Mohamed Siad Barre’s regime in 1991. But the US and Ethiopia accused them of harbouring Al Qaeda operatives. Nigeria, Burundi, Ghana and Malawi have also pledged troops, but it is unclear when they would mobilise them. “The other forces would have to take control of other main towns - Kismayu, Baidoa, Jowhar, Marka,” Ankunda said. “The African Union must compel (the others) to send forces.” But he added that the Ugandan troops were able to hold the fort by themselves until reinforcements arrive, because they had the necessary training and equipment, including knowledge of basic Somali language and culture. “We’ll move there first because we can stand on our own,” he said, adding that a Ugandan officer, Major-General Levi Karuhanga, had been appointed to head the mission. Meanwhile in Baidoa, where the interim government still has its main base while awaiting for security to improve in Mogadishu, Ethiopian Foreign Minister Seyoum Mesfin met government leaders. He arrived late on Tuesday. -Reuters Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
