.. about the important hunt for the non-Islamic African terrorist Joseph Kony. Some may recall Obama sending several hundred American troops to help bring him to justice a number of years ago. Not much news since, but the WaPo has just released an update..
As their mission stretches into a fifth year, however, U.S. troops have turned to some unsavory partners to help find Kony’s trail. Working from a new bush camp in the Central African Republic, U.S. forces have begun working closely with Muslim rebels — known as Seleka — who toppled the central government two years ago and triggered a still-raging sectarian war with a campaign of mass rapes and executions.
The Pentagon had not previously disclosed that it is cooperating with Seleka and obtaining intelligence from the rebels. The arrangement has made some U.S. troops uncomfortable.Wonder if those Muslim "rebels" are actually Muslims, or are they non-Muslims like ISIS? Or are non-Muslims like ISIS the ones Obama was talking about when he said non-Muslims should not condemn Islam due to Islamic terrorism, or was he talking about Christians? And is Joseph Kony a Christian terrorist or just someone who is perverting Christianity? Confusing.
...and in another story, what about Obama's favorite general, Hoss Cartwright? A few years ago he made news when he became a target of a US Attorney-led investigation of a leak of top secret information to the press on Iran. Last word was that it was 'stalled' due to concerns over the Iran deal. Well, it's done now, so what's going on? Remember, David Petraeus was prosecuted for leaking in less time. And he's not the only one.
Oh well, maybe CBS will do a 60 Minutes special on some of this real soon. Maybe they can get Lara Logan on the case.
