"The Americans are here, Our saviors are here, Let's dance!"

Alan Boswell of McClatchy has an interesting update on the U.S. special forces hunt for Lord's Resistance Army leader Joseph Kony that is worth a read.  The Green Berets are providing logistical support, bolstering intelligence sharing, and improving coordination amongst the four indigenous armies pursuing Kony and the LRA, making this manhunt similar to the hunt for Che Guevara.

Boswell notes "There are differing opinions among officials about whether killing or capturing Kony would be enough to end his movement."  Indeed, I would argue that we will not be successful in achieving our broader strategic (or in this case, humanitarian) objective unless we also take out the other senior leaders of the LRA at the same time.
