About the African video at our school

While yes the situation in Uganda is sad, we are not to be too rash about sending any money or troops. First we must attempt to find the credibility of the Ugandan Army. If it is non corrupt in most areas, we should lend fighting vehicles and weapons and training to allow for a retake of the nation. If the nation does not contain a serious military, American troops should not be sent in until pressure on the surounding nations is no longer working. It is still a African war and not an North American war. Just like we wouldn't expect South African forces to ever help America if we were attacked, we should maintain a pacifist approach if we want any progress. Last time we sent direct military funding to under equipped fighters we got Al Quieda from Mujahadeen forces.
And I urge you to ask yourself, are these people just helpless? If you said yes, slap yourself for being a patronizing ass. These are just as capable humans as Americans and should be required of the same way. This is not to say we should expect first world cooperation and such, but rape and genocide among government forces is just evil. Never excuse an adult for murdering even against his own will. If the people were to die anyway lessen the blame, but being sent out to find victims requires a inhuman instinct anyway.
It is still Uganda's responsibility to fight this war for the most part, but supporting them with weapons will not be a breach in responsibility.
