MoL: Invisible Children article #2

 October 7 2005 Profile: Joseph Kony- http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/4320858.stm

The BBC covered this article specifically about Joseph Kony and his life somewhat from his childhood up until his leadership in the LRA in a matter of two pages. It was a more informational based article bringing in facts that the public may not have known about Kony. Did you know that he played football? Or that he was a "brilliant dancer?" Kony wanted all of the power he could get and took on anything and everything he could. The article expressed, "He had created an aura of fear and mysticism around himself and his rebels follow strict rules and rituals." Apparently if his soldiers didn't make the sign of the cross before they went to fight, they were killed immediately with no negotiation. This article makes Joseph Kony out to be something that he truly is- a monster.

yours truly,
Amy
