Why is the US government helping to prop up such a despicable government? One which is so incredibly homophobic that they want to execute anybody who is gay? While this terrorist group is quite likely very reprehensible, so is the Uganda government and many others in Africa.
Because Uganda's government, corrupt and bigoted as it is, is far more preferable to the existence of the Lord's Resistance Army. It's comparable to whether you prefer Karzai's government in Afghanistan or the Taliban; neither is a particularly good choice, but you prefer the lighter shade of grey.
