The International Criminal Court (ICC) has confirmed thirty-nine charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity against the Ugandan rebel commander of Lord’s Resistance Army, Joseph Kony.
 
This is the first time for the Hague-based Court to confirm charges against a suspect in absentia. His trial can however not proceed without him in custody.
 
More than one hundred thousand people were killed during the LRA’s campaign of terror.
 
Reacting to the ICC confirmation, victims of the atrocities committed by the rebel reaffirmed the calls for his arrest.
 
“He should first be arrested, and all these charges be brought against him. However, the victims who suffered the torture cannot wait, some of these victims are also dying”
 
But Kony has not been seen in public for almost twenty years. It’s not even known if he’s still alive.

More from the Christian terrorist organization

Joseph kony did terrible things. supporter of APC Islamabads did worse

I hope he is found so he can face charges and I hope the ICC starts preparing to charge Nigerians that have been Sponsoring terror against christians ..there can be no place for Barbarians in the modern world

The manhunt for him was ended years ago. They know where he is and his militia is severely weakened but I believe he would rather off himself than appear before the ICC

It is disingenuous and dishonest to label LRA as a Christian terrorist group. The LRA at best exhibits a syncretic blend of Christianity, traditional African spiritualism, and other religious elements. It is more a cult of personality formed around Joseph Kony. It does not rely on any Christian teachings or Biblical verses to perpetrate terror. In fact many people doubt the sincerity of Kony to any ideology or religion.

Compare that to Islamic terrorists that find solace in Islamic verses supporting terror and seek to establish Shariah or Islamic states.

Whereas it is easier to use the words and actions of Mohammad and some Quranic verses to support terrorism, it is extremely difficult to do same with the words and actions of Jesus Christ and Bible verses. That is why Islamic terrorist groups are by far the most common in the world today.

It is labelled as such due to the Aim of the group, which is to establish a state on the 10 commandments of the Bible

ICC SHOULD SUPPORT NO SHARIA LAW ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.
COMMON AND INTERNATIONAL LAWS OF OFFER CONSIDERATION AND ACCEPTANCE IS ENOUGH FOR ICC TO MANAGE FOR THE WORLD PEACE.

Omo this man i wonder who teach am how to hide...Only seen once in the last 15years.

My brother, Christianity is a veeeeeeery peaceful religion,abi no be the Christianity that was brought into South America,Scandinavia and Slavic region through swords and violence.
They are now portraying it now as a peaceful religion.
If you know the atrocities perpetrated by the Popes and Christian religious leaders up to the 17th century,you will have aninstant change of mind.

Hand of PMForce, voice of Tinubu. Local propaganda like this starts, lives and dies in nairaland. It doesn't faze Trump so stop wasting your time. If he will invade sambisa forest to finish off terrorists and expose Tinubu's incompetence, things like this will not stop him but will even fuel his zeal.

The LRA's concept of the 10 commandments is different from the Biblical one. Even LRA has tried to clarify that. Furthermore, Christians do not live by the 10 Commandments because they are not under the Mosiac Law like Judaism.

The Norwegian scholar Knut Holter has argued that what the LRA means by the "Ten Commandments" is somewhat loosely associated with the Ten Commandments as found in the Biblical text. Holter notes that the LRA have created new commandments that help propagate their ideology under the term the "Ten Commandments". One such example is the LRA's commandment given as "Thou shalt not smoke."

In a speech, James Obita, a former secretary for external affairs and mobilisation of the LRA, adamantly denied that the LRA was "just an Acholi thing" and stated that claims made by the media and Museveni administration asserting that the LRA is a "group of Christian fundamentalists with bizarre beliefs whose aim is to topple the Museveni regime and replace it with governance based on the Bible's ten commandments" were false.

Running around kita kita looking for justification for what they are doing...

What our business with LRA?
These people are just funny....I believe they have been scanning every nook and cranny for any remote news that would tie Christians one way or the other to terrorism and genocide as they are doing....

Did the founder of Christianity propagate violence ?
Did he command his disciples to spread violence?
People simply falsified Christianity to suite Thier evil desires

These people keep searching for how they can also link Christianity to what they do, so much that once an attacker is not of their religion they tag him Christian as if any person that is not Muslim automatically is a Christian.

Someone has already disputed that. It wasn't Bible 10 commandments. Yes he did take bits and pieces of the Mosaic law practiced by Judaism and mixed it with the traditional practices along with other things.

Secondly, while the Mosaic law is in the bible and used as history to learn of the prophesies about the Messiah that was to come and how the Children of Israel struggled to keep laws which was later annulled by Jesus (the Messiah) death on the cross. Christians don't operate by the laws of Moses but the law of the spirit.

Romans 10:4 (ESV)
4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

Romans 8:2 (New International Version)
2 because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you[a] free from the law of sin and death.

Hebrews 8:6,13 (Living Bible)
6 But Christ, as a Minister in heaven, has been rewarded with a far more important work than those who serve under the old laws because the new agreement that he passes on to us from God contains far more wonderful promises.
13 God speaks of these new promises, of this new agreement, as taking the place of the old one; for the old one is out of date now and has been put aside forever.

Ephesians 2:15 (New International Version)
15 by setting aside in his flesh the law with its commands and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new humanity out of the two, thus making peace,

I've provided enough evidence from the Bible that Christians don't operate the Mosaic laws even though we learn about them. It's the Jews who are practicing Judaism that deal with the laws of Moses, but you won't even call it Judaism Terrorist which will still be wrong as the confused fellow wasn't even really trying to operate Judaism but just took things from multiple religions and boxed them together.

But it's understood anyway. Just call find a way to link it to Christianity and you will satisfy yourself.
