http://www.instablogs.com/ Congo, Uganda and South Sudan unite to fight LRA Citing lack of progress towards a peace deal with LRA s leader Joseph Kony, the leaders of Uganda, Congo and the autonomous region of south Sudan have agreed for the first time to co-ordinate military efforts to end one of Africa s longest wars that has brought misery to a region bordering several countries. However, it is doubtful whether they can effectively resume an all out war against LRA. The people of Central African Republic (CAR), recently tasted LRA s barbarism and fear the worst if the war materializes. Local Ugandans in the north do not want to jeopardize the normalcy restored by two years of ceasefire. Moreover, the south Sudanese, whose main trade route to Uganda s capital, Kampala, and beyond passes through the affected area, oppose a renewal of war. And Congo, which would have to undertake the daunting task of driving the LRA out of its jungle hideouts in the country s north-east, has one of the least competent armies in the world. Ugandan military believes that threat of force will drag the LRA back to negotiating table. At least those who oppose war would be encouraged by the news that has named a new negotiating team. Pakistan protests after Australia announces India tour Pakistan cricket board sounds really justified in accusing the Australian cricket team of practicing double standards after it confirmed to go ahead with the test tour of India. The team had postponed a test tour to Pakistan after raising concerns over its safety and the security situation within the country. The Australians have been unabashedly biased in their outlook towards Pakistan. We agree with country's grim security situation given the frequent bombings that rock the country, now and then, but since when did India become an exception to bloodshed? It too has witnessed spate of terrorist bombings in recent months at all the major cricket venues. How does that make India fair any better than Pakistan? All the talk about Pakistan's inability to provide security to the players is sham. In the end it is all about big money the Australians get to chase and possibly win in India and not Pakistan. Malawi bars small traders from selling maize Maize sellers have tagged the presidential order as undemocratic since it bars them from selling the country s staple grain. The vendors even went to the extent of saying that Muthalika lacked a sense of humanity. They asserted that it was strange for the president to attribute maize shortage in the country to the vendors while the government had sold a lot of maize to Zimbabwe despite earlier warnings that the country had little maize. The vendors in the region are not very well off rather they are small scale traders who ear their livelihood by selling the staple grain. Defending their part, they added that their prices are slightly higher as government has subsidized the ADMARC price. However, the truth is that the rich businessmen are hoarding maize and are buying out the small scale businessmen. This strategy by the so called high profile men has wrongly swayed the public opinion in favor of the current government as people have begin to think that the food situation is really bad. Hence the govt. intervened and banned private sale. Gay parades, source of social mobilization in Brazil Brazil is turning into a country of middle class. Given the economic advances that have occurred in recent years, more than 100 million Brazilians are part of the so-called middle class. The advancement of millions of Brazilians is transforming the country and the reflection of this are the gay parades. As with other parts of the world, the biggest event of urban social mobilization is not the May 1st, but the Gay Parades. Instead of workers demanding their rights, million of homosexuals dancing to the sound of electronic music and kissing each other! Instead of the struggle for equality, seeking the right to be different. But all this beauty and joy hide something sinister, the logic of capitalism, where everything must be bought, even the right to express the individuality. An example is the Gay Parade of Sao Paulo, the largest in the world, which is rightly held in the main artery of Brazilian capitalism, the Paulista avenue. There is no doubt that gays are gaining a larger space in Brazilian society, but this happens not because the issue of human rights in Brazil advanced, but because respect is something you buy, like a Calvin Klein underwear. http://www.instablogs.com/

The year is almost over. With 2008 just around the corner, we have so much to look forward to and be excited about. And while it's important to think about the days ahead, it's just as important to stop and look back on everything that's been accomplished. The progress that's been made in northern Uganda is incredible. Night commuting has all but ceased. Peace talks are underway and in the final two stages. The U.S. has appointed Senior Diplomat Tim Shortley to focus on conflict resolution in the region. Uganda's President Museveni has given the LRA a deadline of January 31 to come to a peace deal. for more info, visit invisiblechildren.com Author: invisiblechildreninc Keywords: invisible children uganda war update lra kony musevini Added: December 28, 2007
