VIDEO:  Is Uganda a Worse Iraq? - Part 1
 
 
A violent civil war has plagued Northern Uganda for the past 22 years, a lifetime for many young Americans. In the words of Lydia Natoolo, a former citizen of Uganda, the atrocities committed by the paramilitary Lord's Resistance Army and the devastation of displacement camps in Northern Uganda contribute to the "greatest humanitarian conflict the world has ever seen." Is the conflict in Uganda worse than the humanitarian concern in Iraq? Watch and think.

Wow...Thank you thank you thank you for helping to raise awareness about what's going on in Uganda. Very well done and while I don't think one war is worse than another, I do wish that the US would take some initiative in helping to end this 20+ year long war, especially now that peace talks have ceased for the time being...Very well done Steph!
