Ugandan Rebels Hired to Hunt Boss

Rebels from The Lord’s Resistance Army have been enlisted to find their former boss, Joseph Kony. After turning themselves in, the former rebels are now acting as part of the Ugandan Army and searching in Sudan, the Central African Republic, and the Democratic Republic of Congo where they think the last of the Lord’s Resistance Army is hiding, including Kony. The American government is supportive and is supplying the Ugandans with millions of dollars worth of military support. Although some U.S. officials are on the fence about it, the former L.R.A. men have proven themselves worthy and have caught more than half of Kony’s men in the past year and a half.
