Hey Guys,

I know this is going to be a little off topic from the usual excitement of New Eden and is related more to whats happening here on Earth, but I think that this should be known. This is a post about Joseph Kony, the Leader of the L.R.A (Lords Resistance Army) in Central Africa and the warcrimes he has done over the past 26 years that have been going unnoticed.

Invisible ChildrenGÇÖs KONY 2012 campaign aims to make Joseph Kony famous, not to celebrate him, but to raise support for his arrest and set a precedent for international justice. In this case, notoriety translates to public support. If people know about the crimes that Kony has been committing for 26 years, they will unite to stop him.

DURING THE NIGHT BEFORE APRIL 20TH, WE COVER THE NIGHT - MEMBERS OF KONY 2012 WILL BE MEETING UP AND COVERING THEIR CITIES WITH POSTERS DEMANDING JUSTICE FOR AFRICA!


Until then, we are going to be distributing/making posters, raising money and whatever else we can do to make the world aware of the KONY 2012 campaign.


Any help is appreciated - At the least share the word about Kony!


Fly safe fellow capsuleers!!

The out of pod forums are that way. ----->

Thank you for being first and quoting the OP above you. Otherwise, I fear we all might not know who you were talking to.

No need to be such a douche, he was just trying to help out the OP who is evidently lost.

The OP is defiantly not lost,

This is taking over Facebook, Twitter, You tube and every social networking site global and it should also be recognized within EVE as well, in the OOPE forum area.

FYP

Thank you for being first and quoting the OP above you. Otherwise, I fear we all might not know who you were talking to.

Before this gets moved to OOPE, people might want to read this about Visible Children, they're the ones behind the Kony 2012 thing

*munches popcorn while watching the statist left jump on the war bandwagon*

Returning to their roots I see, now that Bush is gone, the left can once again make the world safe for democracy. The NeoCon gambit has run out of steam, but should still be good for a few more years of weapon sales and petrodollar rescues.

Back in 2009 I was told by a "friend" who worked for a major military contractor that provides weapons and mercs:
"ha ha! You and your stupid Ron Paul are not going to stop us. We have plans for Africa, that's why we moved our office to UAE. You watch. Everything you see happen in the next few years, it's already in the plans. You think voting or that **** will work? You are a retart."

"That's not sustainable", I said. "Eventually the USA goes broke from all of these wars".

"Ha!", was the reply. "When that happens and the dollar collapses, who do you think will have bought up the gold by then? You lose."

(this was the same person who was upset when he didn't get to go be a merc in New Orleans after Katrina because he missed the change to - and I quote - "shoot blacks". Yes, these are the guys who will take a paycheck to kill you and they will enjoy it).

Now there are various "generations" of warfare. 1st gen warfare is the "storming the castle" kind. Second gen is "line warfare" the standing in the field shooting arrows and musket balls at each other. Third gen is maneuver warfare perfected by the Germans when they invaded Poland. And 4th Gen is "stateless" warfare, where the sides are not really armies, using mostly covert ops and political battles incorporated in an overall strategy.

What we are seeing now is 5th gen warfare: incorporation of media elements and propaganda as a military tool. Have enough people in a tizzy about something and you have weaponized democracy at that point.

All you need is a nicely done, touching video.

Kind of like a video game trailer. Anybody remember the video of the fat chick getting all teared up over that Skyrim trailer? There are people who notice that and their 40 hour a week job is all about how to manipulate you. Weaponized Marketing we could call it, perhaps?

This is all about beating the drums for war in Africa. When the "republicans" are in charge, the excuse to go to war is "there's brown people there out to kill you! Send troops!!!!" and when "democrats" are in charge, it's "they are hurting the cheeeeeeldren!!!!!1!! Send Troops!!!!" Meanwhile, the people who own both parties and the media make a killing, and not just money.

All they need are you sheeple falling for it.

Are you going to fall for it this time or is it going to take your assess getting drafted?
