{UAH} How long would it take to overthrow Pres Museveni's gov't by force of arms?

You know, i am one of those who believe the NRA war was badly executed even as an unprecedented record was set. Won't go into details here but that war should have been cracked and precise in a much shorter time lapse.

It was much more laughable with the SPLA in Sudan; 13 years and failing to land in Juba? That was gross incompetence. In fact, i am not sure SPLA/M, with the same mindset they used to execute the war would take any country far. Sudan would have gone to the canines. The test of South Sudan is enough to show what i mean although i am for steady leadership under Salva Kiir for as long as he is the recognised leader.

The RPA war, too, shouldn't have gone on for 4 years. Rwanda is a dot of a country, for crying out loud!

Back to Uganda; Gen Museveni';s original goal was to liberate the whole Africa by force of arms but those who need to know is that life in the jungle is not as clarified as in the built up areas. Priorities must be revised to fit in with civilised society and other changes. All the same, to-date he is up to some such exercises but using more of the carrot and verbal technique and has made many strides in that regard.

That's why taking on Museveni as a liberation force would only serve the purpose of annoying oneself in suicidal desperation with no objective feasible even in a telescope. The populace would not use guns but their tradition means.

Other than suffering early appointments with local state security apparatus, the partners Museveni has made in his security without borders adventures would eagerly send in reinforcement of all kinds to annihilate such copycat attackers who think guns win wars. Boots would hit the ground, the sky would roar with drones, the ground would open up and swallow vectors, etc.

The Obote gov't didn't have a quarter of such privileges but it took NRA 5 years to make sense of their own effort. Same case as Maj Gen Habyarimana's, whom, i learn't over the weekend, had a very good arsenal at his disposal when Rwigyema and boys struck. How, for example, he managed to pick out the commander on day 2 of the invasion still puzzles RPA to-date.

But as pointed out earlier, Rwanda is small enough for one to walk through in a day if they have proper fitting for their feet but it took 4 whole years and millions decimated.

That won't happen in Uganda! If Rwanda is 10 times a dwarf in respect of Uganda, it would cost 40 years minimum plus allowance for the involvement of major allies working on substantive interests and pay back ideology.

A century, may be, and to conclude wisely, Museveni wouldn't be the problem but the Leopard prey would be-just satisfying the wild cat at the expense of bonafide inhabitants of the swath!

Not good business as such but investors are highly encouraged to gamble their metal notes.
