He was a serious issue ~20 years ago when he was in peak power.

Now? Not so much.

He build this company to do one thing and now that the machine is running he isn’t stopping, even if it’s not really a current issue anymore.

If this Kony is caught he is likely to move on to another issue or keep milking this for all it’s worth by writing a book.

Either way, he’s essentially a mercenary at this point in time.
