When Obama made the announcement a couple of weeks ago that he was sending around 100 advisory troops to Africa to apprehend and remove Joseph Kony from the battlefield, the decision was met with elation for some and trepidation for others. People did not understand why this decision had been made, and to them it seemed to come out of the blue.
Invisible Children, our partners, as well as our hundreds of thousands of supporters have worked, hard, to make sure that a decision like this was made. So if any of you encounter doubts, we made this video to inform the masses.
This decision wasn’t made out of the blue. This was eight years of hard earned work. There were many political actors, advisers and components involved in the process. From Secretary of State, Hilary Clinton to Senator James Inhofe, this is not just a bi-partisan issue. More importantly, it is a human issue. Please watch and share.
