Kony:

1. Parties involved

Joseph Kony; born between July and September 1961. In 2007, he had 88 wives and 42 children. Proclaimed himself as a spokesman of God. He led the Lord's Resistance Army.

2. What happened or is happening

The Lord's Resistance Army began in 1987 and is a Guerrilla warfare group that is trying to purify Acholi. He uses children as much of his army, otherwise he said he would kill them, but they still died anyways. Part of his group will find passages in the Bible to support what he was doing. It has been happening for over 20 years. Over 30,000 kids have been abducted., and 2 million have been displaced since 1986.

3. Why did it happen

Kony thought that he could kill people that didn't live exactly by the bible.

4. How did the international community(UN, US, African Union, NATO) get involved.

We have put up many posters and spent much money trying to find him.

5. Current situation/How did it end

It is still on going.

We then watched the Kony video.
