Washington (CNN) -- President Barack Obama is sending about 100 U.S. troops to Africa to help hunt down the leaders of the notoriously violent Lord's Resistance Army in and around Uganda.

"I have authorized a small number of combat-equipped U.S. forces to deploy to central Africa to provide assistance to regional forces that are working toward the removal of Joseph Kony from the battlefield," Obama said in letter sent Friday to House Speaker John Boehner and Daniel Inouye, the president pro tempore of the Senate. Kony is the head of the Lord's Resistance Army.

U.S. military personnel advising regional forces working to target Kony and other senior leaders will not engage Kony's forces "unless necessary for self-defense," Obama said.

"I believe that deploying these U.S. armed forces furthers U.S. national security interests and foreign policy and will be a significant contribution toward counter-LRA efforts in central Africa."

Obama noted that the group "has murdered, raped, and kidnapped tens of thousands of men, women and children in central Africa" and "continues to commit atrocities across the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and South Sudan that have a disproportionate impact on regional security."

Does Obama hold the record for the most wars at once?

We won't be happy until we have troops in every country on the planet.

[Angakuk]

Duh!

[Gonzo]

Wow. This fucking guy is as much a war president as Bush was... soon maybe even more so.

And other planets. I cannot believe how other nations persistently ignore the danger of a Martian invasion.

[Watser?]

Well, for once they are going to be fighting Christian terrorists.

Other than that I got nothing.

I don't think 100 troops constitutes an invasion or a war.

I personally would prefer our troops support regional efforts to protect people from attempted genocide and rape, such as is happening in Africa, rather than trying to protect or acquire oil. But this is the wrong response and way too late.

[Kyuss Apollo]

Maybe if we give Obama another Nobel Peace Prize he'll stop.

I, for one, welcome our new Martian overlords.

That is what was said in the 50's about Vietnam.

Would you say the same thing if 100 German troops were in Louisiana engaging in military conflict?

[Watser?]

Is there a terrorist group running around in Louisiana kidnapping kids, having them kill their parents and other villagers and using them as fighters for their deranged fundamentalist army that terrorises Louisiana and all the neighbouring states?

[Jerome]

Always with an excuse to kill brown people over there Watser.

[Watser?]

Your trolling is so predictable, are you sure you're not a robot?

Pay attention please. These brownblack people are being killed by other brownblack people.

Not sure if I approve with sending those soldiers, but that's the context.

No, the US is sending mostly White people to kill Brown people.

[Nullifidian]

Given his last post, I have to second the chatterbot hypothesis. Eliza is smarter than Jerome.

Mostly white? Are you sure? I think a pretty large amount of your cannon fodder isn't.

Anyway, happy trolling, I need to remind myself from time to time that there is really no point in interacting with you. I stand reminded.

(Reuters) - Uganda's energy minister said she expects to send three petroleum bills to parliament by the end of the year as the government moves quickly to put laws in place to regulate the country's nascent oil sector before the start of production.

How about that, it is for oil after all.

Did you miss the part where were are really going there for the oil?

[Crumb]

Was that supposed to shock us?

LOL because the US always sends its troops to protect French and Chinese oil companies:

Earlier this week, Uganda's parliament passed a resolution urging the government to withhold consent for Tullow's proposed deal with France's Total and China's CNOOC until laws were in place to regulate the industry.

This is what happens when trolls don't read the article before trying to bait with it.

All commodities are global, dumbass. Why would US troops be sent to protect the rights of global competitors in that global commodity?

By your logic, the US sends its troops around the world to protect the international market in coffee and cocoa.

LOL fail troll is fail.
