I've learned leaders in many nations of the world face complex problems that they feel cannot be solved without international action or cooperation


This whole semester has had had one main point: for the students will open their eyes to the world around them. In doing this I begin to realize how many issues that every country faces. The more issues I saw the more I realized that there were certain issues that weren't just a certain country's issue. In fact, the problems they are facing can only be overcome by the intervention of outside nations.
The one problem I would like to address is the inhumane events that are taking place in Uganda. I recently discovered that L.R.A. (Lord's resistance army) has been kidnapping children everyday and forcing them to kill. The children that remain basically live by themselves because they fear of kidnap if they return home. They live off only what they can scavenge of the land and kindness of others.
Uganda really does not have the power to stop this tragedy on their own. They have a very weak and structurally insufficient government. The L.R.A. is just as if not stronger than Uganda's forces. They will need the care of other nations and people if they wish to surpass the enmity of Joseph Kony, the leader of the L.R.A.

WE...are his only hope
