Invisible Children

The Children in Uganda have been suffering a war for many years. The war has consisted of taking over small villages and killing and kidnapping kids. The kids they take them and make them into soldiers for their army. The children can't run away because of the chances of being caught and killed. Also if the some of them do escape they have no where to go because chances are that their family is dead. The program Invisible Children have been working on trying to save these kids and get them out of this terrible army. The biggest problem is that the leader of the army doesn't want to back down even when is officers are trying to make peace agreements he has them killed for it so the only way to end this is by force.
It seems easy but it is hard to fight back when your shooting at a kid younger than 18. So now the organization has brought this argument to the government, and they have been working out a bill to send through Capital Hill.
