I believe Aristide made a deal with the devil to return him to power in Haiti and this is why he is in Africa today. I thought it a bad precedent and I know that's why we are currently occupied. I also blame the Haitian Diaspora who looks upon the CBC as some natural ally and lobbied a president that acted in his own personal interest: to garner Black and liberal votes. They (Haitian Diaspora) should have not agreed to a use of force by a foreign power, and a former occupier to resolve what was a Haitian problem, a gutless response letting someone else fight your battle. I am a nationalist as you can see although I try not to be xenophobic. I REALLY don’t care what happens with JBA as I had no vested interest in his rule. He certainly forgot those in the Diaspora that gave him assistance, which increased the ranks of his enemies, and is partly the reason why many in the current Haitian administration are right out of Miami. I now talk to Haiti more often and spend more of my money there, a personal choice. I want my friends there to arm themselves and be prepared to defend me when I am in town; charitée bien ordonnée commence par soi. I do not look upon the CBC as very effective, especially in the area of foreign policy. What's good for the goose is good for the gander; the Haitian elite is better organized, they have better Harvard educated lobbyist in Washington and have more experience dealing with those who exert control over US government policy. I would like ALL parties to stop the lies; although I believe JBA is now telling it like it is because he has nothing left to lose. I believe that most of the problems around the world are created by Euro trash imposing a materialistic worldview for their benefit on everyone on the planet by force of arms. White people act in their own interest and rarely kill their kind for another race and I like that about them. I have never claimed the white man is bad, after all some of my best friends are white, LOL…LOL…LOL… I am not opposed to contact, I only want to define the parameters rather than be dictated to. "Now you know my name, now you know my game, you wanna be with me you oughta be the same" LOL...LOL...LOL...
This one's for you "guest" inasmuch as I hate to quote myself however erudite the comments. Read on and see where this drama is being played out, I have no illusions as to my place in this comedy/tragedy.

It’s about Haïti not any one person. Get a name why don’t you.
