unrest in the middleast.

As many of you probably know by now. egypt and now lybia have rebelled against their leaders. egypt seems to be almost settled tho. But lybia is still seeing some fighting.

couldn't this go in world events?

oh wait...

yeah uhhh thats where I put it.

But at least those coundtries have some government that is effective. Uganda and the Congo have nothing and the kids are getting stolen by the LRA and forced to fight as child soldiers. No help from the government whatsoever.

really? thats terrible

Even worse is that they have no way to call for help. I just had people from "Invisible children" show us a presentation at school. These guyswent to Uganda a few years ago and were so hurt by what happened that they started and orginization to help these kids,

yeah, it's one thing to draft men ((and women)) who are in good condition who are at least 18 when the army doesn't have enough of their usual troops. but I cannot see how any could justify child soldiers.

The child army is let by this guy who is against the political party ibn lead or something, and kidsz can be brainwashed, how else can you get them to turn on t heir own people, kill their own families?

*shudders*

its rather dark actually.

yeah it is.

i'm glad to be an american

yeah me too. we have problems. but we are sitll mostley free.

at least we can call 911

yeah.
