So we haven't talked about Kony 2012 in awhile. After their leader had a meltdown and did innapropriate things in public, their campaign got somewhat discredited and people stopped talking about it. I am not even sure about how their April 20th campaign went, and if anything even happened. (Which would be something that I would be interested in knowing). So when I saw this story I thought "Why not? maybe something is happening." . This article asserts that Sudan is helping the Lord's Resistance Army. The Sudanese government is obviously denying the charges (who would admit to them?), but people do not seem very convinced. Another point of the article that I found interesting was that they said the "point" of Joseph Kony's army is to create a civilization that follows the Christian ten commandments, which is not something I had heard before about the criminal. It also talks about how the United States has one hundred advisors there trying to help out the Ugandan Army. So the Kony 2012 campaign did do something. But the article also talks about how the advisors can't do much because the LRA isn't using technology, so they are hard to track.
