Honestly how I see it is that it's not our problem. From a United States perspective we're in major debt and have crime problems of our own. My guess is that Kony is also supplied arms from Russia so if we get involved (militarily speaking) they will become angry because they are loosing money. Also, the organization Invisible Children which is saying they are helping only donates something around 30% to the children in Africa, that is approaching fraud. It's been going on for years, and I see no reason why it should come up now. There are many other dictators in third world countries doing just as bad of things, but a whole bunch of teenagers feel that sharing the story on Facebook will be them doing "their part".
