The Hornsleth Cult found its way into Uganda, while our security agents, with incredibly high annual operating budgets (ISO, ESO, CID, JAT, VCCU, CMI, PGB, UPDF, LDU, UPDF, and KAP) are busy all over the country terrorising citizens, abducting and beating up innocent Ugandans, cramming them into car boots, arresting people for appearing to be supporters of Dr Kizza Besigye, claiming they are idle and disorderly. Kristain von Hornsleth, the cult's founder is busy baptising Ugandans with his name Hornsleth, enslaving them, and will most likely hypnotise, rape and use them, all for one piglet or one goat!

When Daily Monitor first broke the Hornsleth story, about three weeks ago, of an NGO that gives the poor people of Mukono District a piglet, if they will adopt as one of their own names "Hornsleth", a Ugandan friend of mine, Immy Rose Lassiter, living in the USA, called to tell me that they (Ugandans living abroad) were dying of shame that Ugandans would assume a white man's name for a pig worth $ 20. During slave trade, slaves automatically assumed the names of their masters and changed their names as often as they were sold. That is how Black Americans, except Kunta Kinte, assumed European names!

Horrifying website

I checked out Hornsleth's website at www.hornsleth.com and was horrified!

His theme is "Power Branding Using Real People". His literature sends out clear messages of a dangerous cult - violence, pornography, blasphemy, rape, sex, masturbation, racism and neo-slavery. His art collection consists of devilish and grisly pictures, that have the following inscriptions on them - "I have more money than God / Hornsleth is God Number 1 / Rape me Hornsleth / don't be scared, just be White (this is inscribed over the smiling face of an African girl whose facial features seem to have been mutilated) / Those who must die, must die / F*** the sick, f*** the poor, f*** the old / C*** Hunter / Psychopath Hornsleth / Kill the Bitch Hornsleth / Rape me with scream sounds on the side Hornsleth / F*** me Daddy / Hornsleth's Pillow Power / F*** my brains out Hornsleth / F***, Steal, Kill, Burn / Don't be scared, be a futulist (this is inscribed on a shining, sharp, silver knife) ..... and a lot more. It is scary!

"The Hornsleth Village in Uganda 2006" project, has a detailed work plan, updated on a monthly basis on his website. Apparently, it began on schedule, in March 2006, by making first contacts in a village in Mukono. Hornsleth himself visited the village in May 2006 and set up with local lawyers, drawing an action plan with them. In June 2006, there was change of names and processing of documentation, issue of IDs, signing of change of identity contracts etc.

Hornsleth's idea is to invite Ugandans to change their names to Hornsleth in exchange for a piglet or a goat. According to him, for the poor villagers, "their needs are more essential than their names..."

He is supported by a Mr David Kateregga, a Ugandan engineer and musician living in Denmark, who is proud to be "part of the Hornsleth Village Project in Uganda" according to his "open letter" published on the Hornsleth website.

Dubious ID cards

The most interesting thing about the Hornsleth identity cards is the way they are designed. They have the image of an official government of Uganda document, close to what ministers or other senior civil servants have as business cards - complete with the Uganda Flag and Court of Arms, perhaps with the intention of his project being presented as a bona fide official Government of Uganda project.

Indeed, according to information on the website, "each person will have a national Ugandan ID card issued to show their new "Hornsleth name. What is clear is that the "project" is targeting to recruit 5,000 people. But we all know that Uganda has no "national Ugandan ID cards" - so who is this information intended to dupe? Do the village opinion leaders understand that this is supposed to be a "business deal between them and Hornsleth?"

Are the people being photographed aware that there is a business deal between their village leaders and Hornsleth?

Namono Hornsleth Janet, resident of Kasawo village, Mukono District, born on March 5, 1933 got her new ID card, signed by the chairman, LCI, P O Box 21000, Kasawo, on June 20, 2006. I wonder whether Namono understands what she has got into, whether she is aware that her portrait will be displayed in selected international galleries and whether devilish, pornographic inscriptions will not be superimposed on her photo, as I have seen done to many other pictures of African women corrupted in the Hornsleth photo collections? What is the role of the local lawyers referred to on the website literature?

Security, intervene

Our security organisations need to investigate and save us from a possible Kibwetere-like disaster that is clearly waiting to happen. Our security organisations are well funded and ought to protect Ugandans.
