If Liz were Queen

The following video is one that comes from Narco News and so I trust it to not be a piece of propaganda.  I find it interesting that the people of Haiti are saying that they want the American soldiers there when in fact it was the Bush Administration that removed their beloved leader, Aristide.

I’m not surprised that they want Aristide back.  Like Zalaya of Honduras, Aristide represented the people and stood up for them against the business interests of the USA.  Like the people under the leadership of Zalaya in Honduras, and that of Chavez of Venezuela, the lot of the poor people in Haiti saw great improvement under the rule of Aristide.

I want to tell them:  “Fat Chance under the current administration, with Hillary Clinton in charge of the State Department, that a leader like Aristide who is so unfriendly to Wall Street to be reinstalled.  Look what she did in Honduras.  Not only did the US state department support the illegal Honduran coup, the Clintons sent their PR pal, Lanny Davis, down to Honduras to assist the crooks who had taken over in improving their image.

The real truth of Honduras was that Wall Street business interests in the USA, supported by the current US State Department, wanted Zelaya out.  They considered him to be anti-business–after all he, like Chavez and Aristide raised the minimum wage–we can’t have that!  Hell our own Congress forestalled such actions for the people in our own country for 10 years!  Imagine–goods and other living expenses continued to rise–but for 10 years our Congress did not raise minimum wage in our own “democratic” nation.  However, you can bet your ass they raised their own salaries numerous times.

SO WITH HILLARY CLINTON IN CHARGE AN IN VIEW OF OBAMA’S DO NOTHING TO UPSET WALL STREET STANCE, THE PEOPLE OF HAITI ARE GOING TO BE DISAPPOINTED IF THEY THINK THAT THEIR BELOVED LEADER WILL BE ALLOWED TO RETURN. Oh Washington will come up with some excuse, but it will just be another lie from the White House.  No apparent change from George Bush.

In a 2006 interview with Jean-Bertran Aristide he summed up what the USA did in 2004 with that illegal coup:

That is exactly what was done under the Bush Administration.  They orchestrated this entire lie with the backing of Wall Street.

THE REAL STORY OF HAITI HAS NEVER BEEN TOLD TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE BY OUR CORPORATE SPONSORED MEDIA.

Bush regime change brought a bloodbath to Haiti, with the attendant massacres and human rights abuses. It’s hard to believe that the UN occupier’s disregard for Haitian life has just turned on a dime in a matter of days and they are just firing warning shots into the air now. The UN specializes in head shots. Their intent is not to maim, but to kill.

“And then when it comes to 2004-6, suddenly all this indignant talk of violence falls silent. As if nothing had happened. People were being herded into containers and dropped into the sea. That counts for nothing. The endless attacks on Cité Soleil, they count for nothing. I could go on and on. Thousands have died. But they don’t count, because they are just chimères, after all.” -jEAN-Betrand Aristide 

To be fair when the UN occupiers first came in June 2004, they just bore silent witness to the killings by the Haitian police and the goons who served the oligarchy. It was not part of their mission to stop the carnage, so they did not intervene to stop it. It was not until April 2005 that the UN began to systematically brutalize the Haitian population. The terror intensified in July and December of 2005 when Brazilian troops leading the “military component” of the UN mission committed bloody massacres in the shantytown of Cite Soleil.
