I wonder if the country has untapped reserves of both crude oil and natural gas.
Oh yes, they do.

A lot of people in Africa have enough problem not killing each other off, much less getting along with the rest of the world.

Isn't Uganda like Nigeria, but more polite?

This sounds like the worst work xmas party ever...

What sort of super weapon do they want? MOAB? Fission? Thermonuclear? or AK-47s?

this should end well. Luckily with their history the scientists needed to actually complete the projects will be summarily killed off on suspicion of espionage before the project's even started.

I'll put this on my list of things to worry about.

But it's waaaaaaaay down there near the bottom.

Somewhere between killer bees and Lyme disease.

HIV is 100% lethal. Comes from Africa. All set.

do they really have sex with apes over there? why yes...thats where somalians come from

DerDuschbagen: HIV is 100% lethal. Comes from Africa. All set.

HIV isn't 100% lethal. With extensive drug treatment - many people have been living out their natural lives.

Doomsday device?

/just don't touch my precious fluids

Somalian hating is so 90's.. - "Wallahi, guy!"



"This is your bank calling, I just need your bank account number and sort code..."

/oh yeah it's hot
//hot like fiyah!

Ugandan super weapon? Probably some microwave device to cook people at a distance.

bravian: DerDuschbagen: HIV is 100% lethal. Comes from Africa. All set.

Drugs not withstanding, it's not 100% lethal...

/CCR5 mutation FTW!

RandomExcess: What sort of super weapon do they want? MOAB? Fission? Thermonuclear? or AK-47s?

They already have one. It's called AIDS. Also dysentry, cholera, malaria, tribal warfare, dengue, malnutrition....Too bad they're using them on themselves.

I think this is what he's wanting for Christmas:

Wow. So, you scrap together enough resources sneak by with ONE nuke, piss off a country, launch that nuke at someone, then get annihilated in the 3rd world war.

Good luck on that Mr. President!

EPIC WIN

West and the middle east are still robing Africa. Diamonds, gold and what not. Most of them are happy to supply weapons free of charge to thugs just to destablise the region.

FTFAWe Africans are at the mercy of the developed world who have super weapons that could eliminate us from the face of the world in a whisker of time

Has anyone bothered to tell him that none of us care enough about Uganda to use our "super weapons" against them?

TFA: The President, who has ruled the east African country since 1986, then handed out awards to the hardest working members of his State House staff.

You've been in power for 22 years and NOW you come up with this? How about continuing to work on your infrastructure first?

Oh, and stop dickin' around with the DRC.

What if Cobra sells them the Weather Dominator or the M.A.S.S device?

Considering it is Africa we're talking about, that's a damn good job, apparently he's been doing something right.

Leaving these African countries to their own devices is dumb.

Ugandan Superweapon: The World Blower-upper.

Madagascar will still be the safest place in the world.

Silly President Uganda, doesn't he know that only white people are allowed superweapons?

Or alternatively "Build Superweapons" was turned off in the game console, sorry.

I'm basically against America or any nation helping these Africa nations get any weapons. They pretty much all have low grade border wars going on, and the more guns you give them the worse it gets.

This is not to say that America and other countries have set the gold standard for recent use of military forces, but those guys make us look like tree hugging saints. So yeah, nothing beyond BB guns for you!

Of all the life-improving technologies that societal development would offer....and it's the weapons that they desire most. There's something depressing about that.

I spent 2 months doing volunteer work in Uganda this spring. Honestly, they are the nicest most genuine people you will ever meet in your life, not to mention the most beautiful looking people.

They are strong evangelical Christians though, so that might be a little bit off putting for the average traveler.

Zamboro: Of all the life-improving technologies that societal development would offer....and it's the weapons that they desire most. There's something depressing typical about that.

FTFY

May I present to you:

Robert Mugabe, Prime Minister / President for 28 years

Omar Bongo, President for 41 years

Also, Mobutu Sese Seko of Zaire held on to power for 32 years, and the kleptocrat Daniel arap Moi of Kenya was president for 24 years.

Length of "service" doesn't necessarily mean that they've been doing a lot of good. It just means they have been freely exercising their power to hold on to their seats.

There's ALREADY at least one Ugandan superweapon:

Approves

Approves

Call me crazy, but building infrastructure, investing in education, defining and defending property rights and not eating your political rivals seem to be the best way to close the gap between the developed and undeveloped world.

Not making nuclear weapons.

Weapons mean nothing without the industrial and economic clout that can manufacture and maintain them.

feelgood47: Approves

OH god, it probably takes more time to put on all those medals he gave himself, than a Hollywood starlet does her makeup. Nice going champ. We have better issues with CA, OH, or FL than your little junta going on there. We know where our "crazy" is and for the most part just let it be. You however.....

Well it seems the only logical thing. "white nations" seem to be the only responsible nations on the face of the planet. Black nations cant seem to get beyond "Build tribal yurt, burn neighbors tribal yurt, have your tribal yurt burnt, repeat" in an endless cycle of civil war. Black african nations have a vivid history of squandering resources, commiting genocide against themselves, starving themselves to death, and being generally irresponsible with what little weapons they have to begin with.

Yet we continue to pump millions into the dark continent for what exactly? To save the "rich culture" of civil war and corruption? Tossing money into a bottomless well is brilliant.

bigtotoro: There's ALREADY at least one Ugandan superweapon:

Damn. I thought I was going to have to do it.

Kenya believe it?

Well, actually, I hear Asia is doing pretty well. Well, a bunch of the people arn't doing well, but as a country, their economy is pretty good, and their political system is holding up rather well. I mean, it probably helped that both european and asian cultures mixed, but for the most part, they do pretty well on their own.
