The fragile newly emerged Government of South Sudan (Goss) will most likely be destablised and overthrown by a potentially unlikely candidate, the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), a notoriously and ruthless rebel group from Uganda.

steve pertano! you article about dr. Machar explain exactly who you are. a complete sell out to the infiltrators. the people of southern sudan are very open minded this days. so what ever tricks our enemies may use will not be materialise. you should be ashame to write such a article mentioning a well respected, hard working leader like dr. RIAK MACHAR. i don't know who will be such a idiot to believe you false pedictions about LRA's intentions to over throw the government of southern sudan when they have been there for decades. the people of southern sudan and their arm forces are confident enough to be scared by your little imagination and we don't give a rat ass about a small contigent like the LRA either so go to hell idiot. our leaders and the people of southern sudan only want peace in Uganda that is why our noble VP is tireless working hard to bring peace to your people and you don't appreciate that. i think the spraid of islam deeply in to uganda will create many sell out to be use by our enemies who have failed to islamise south sudan for generation. i would advice the more loving and caring people of uganda to be very careful with such people like steve pertano what ever is name is. he is the kind of man that is hiding behind the devil by pretending to be a friend of southern sudan while throwing poison in the mids of the people. steve! i think your greed had angered you in to writing this article isn't? you posibly don't want give LRA a piece of cake don't you. let's not be caught up between the two waring dogs and pitch against each other like selfish maroons. when will these fools get educated and start looking at the big picture. mr. pertano! i will not write your name right for you always get the wrong end of the sticks what ever profession may be. go to south sudan and get to know dr. machar, the history SPLA, Khartoum peace agreement and the current CPA before you start barking like a dog. who in southern sudan will you please by writting this article anyway? if not the enemy of southern sudan is trying to do every thing and to use any one in order to create trouble in southern sudan so that the CPA does not proceed. please go and enjoy the grant opening of the mosque and leave south sudan noble alone.
in reply to that pathetic article. is an African Sydney AUSTRALIA. dan africa.
There is adoubt in this kind of peace between LRA and Riach,first of all one can just take alook and study Riak's back groun carefully before judging any thing.the reason some of us have doubt about Riak is because he have two hearts. he had had many mistake in south sudan including his signing of peace with the khartoum government.secondly he had instigated the people of uper nile to fight among them selves.therefore, there is something going on.whoever discover this is an intelligent person. If Riak is sincere then let him bring evidence that SPLA members are committing crimes in south sudan not LRA ,Ithink that will be fare for him and for the public.and to those who support Riak, you should help him by proving what the SPLA are doing in western sudan.
This is wild speculation, and irresponsible use of media. It is articles like this, written without serious concerns for their repercussions with regards to people's safety, and regional stability, that are the epitome of irresponsible media. Where is your EVIDENCE?? To make claims as serious as this, you need evidence. Go back to journalism school please, or be quiet. The world does not need more people drumming up suspicion and resentment.
