It was an unexpected journey by attorneys for the elusive Joseph Kony, a Ugandan rebel commander with messianic delusions and a ghoulish human rights record. The legal delegation went on an exploratory mission earlier this month to the International Criminal Court, which wants Kony tried on war crimes charges for his role leading the Lord's Resistance Army.
The visit to The Hague came during the final phase of negotiations between Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni and Kony's brutal and bizarre rebel army to end one of Africa's longest-running and most vicious wars.
