One of the heads of Jason Russell's Invisible Children organization made a disturbing video after the charity won a $1 million grant ... in which he appears to be drunk and joking about keeping $900,000 for himself. TMZ has obtained the clip ... featuring Jedidiah Jenkins, the Director of Ideology for the charity dedicated to hunting down African warlord Joseph Kony. The footage appears to be shot in 2010 ... right after Invisible Children won the $1 million grand prize in the Chase Community Giving Facebook competition.
The following video was uploaded on March 24, 2012 on the Invisible Children YouTube channel, several days after Jason Russell's "naked meltdown". According to this video, a newer, "more awesome" video update on Kony 2012 will be released in a few days:

WASHINGTON — A bipartisan group of 34 senators introduced a resolution Wednesday condemning Joseph Kony and his ruthless guerrilla group for a 26-year campaign of terror in central Africa that has been marked by child abductions and widespread killings.
The measure backs the effort of Uganda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Central African Republic and the newest country, South Sudan, to stop Kony and his Lord's Resistance Army. The legislation also signals support for the U.S. effort to help regional forces pursue commanders of the militia group. Last October, President Barack Obama sent about 100 U.S. troops – mostly Army Special Forces – to central Africa as advisers to regional forces.
Decrying "unconscionable crimes against humanity," Sen. Chris Coons said Kony "represents the worst of mankind, and he and his commanders must be held accountable for their war crimes."
Coons, D-Del., is chairman of the foreign relations subcommittee on African affairs.
Another member of the panel, Republican Sen. Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma, said it's imperative that Kony is found and the LRA disarmed. "Only then, will we be able to bring stability to Africa."
The Lord's Resistance Army has kidnapped thousands of children through nearly three decades, forcing them to become sex slaves, fight as soldiers or kill family members. Coons and Inhofe said 66,000 children in Uganda alone have been kidnapped. During the last four years, after the LRA moved west, it's estimated that the group has killed more than 2,400 people and abducted more than 3,400.
The U.S. designated the group a terrorist organization in 2001. Kony is wanted by the International Criminal Court for heinous attacks in multiple countries.
Coons, in an interview, said the goal is to "make 2012 the year that we finally deliver Joseph Kony to the international criminal court."
That's the same goal of the advocacy group Invisible Children, which produced a 30-minute video to make Kony a household name and raise awareness for his crimes. The video has been viewed by more than 80 million people, with celebrities such as Rihanna and Justin Bieber, spreading the word. Huffington Post, Mar 21 2012

From HuffPost comments:
They all should be recalled for supporting a scam and propaganda for our youth\\What does Tullow Oil and KONY 2012 have in common in Uganda?
Both backed by JP Morgan, which is not to say I condone Kony, but come on people, follow the money!! JP Morgan Chase gave $1 million to Invisible Children.

More to the story than meets the eye....
Anybody who calls themselves radical or insane in their biography has something wrong with them.
I doubted this whole thing from the get go. That is not to say there aren't genuine people within this group, but the facts are it seems as though they are indeed a front for JP Morgan and Elite we don't know much about.
All we know is JP Morgan gave big bucks to this org, their CFO is a former JP Morgan Employee and JP Morgan is the Broker of Tullow Oil who got rights to the newly discover oil in Uganda.
I believe this whole thing is a front for Humanitarian intervention for resources.
There is hidden resource war going on with China and US in Africa. This is partly why Gaddafi was killed, because he was anti colonial, anti US. He was forming/did form an African Union.
Think about it

Lies work, even they are exposed as lies.
Consider the statement quoted above.
“This is not to say I condone Kony, but…”
I see this all the time.
“I agree that Qaddafi and Assad are bloodthirsty dictators who we should bomb, but…”
“I agree that Iran is supremely evil, and must be destroyed, but…”
“I agree that the Jewish ‘holocaust’ was real, but…”
“I agree with the imperialists, but…”
“I agree that Wall Street is good, and socialism is evil, but…”
If you agree with the core of the lies, then why bother pretending that you “disagree”? Do you think that by agreeing with the stampeding herd, you will get them to listen to reason?
Dream on.
