Anyone so worried about Haiti who would go there should be prepared for the worst. Pat Robertson said the early founders made a pact with the Devil. Maybe so.

True story... My ancestors on my mother side were silver smiths and moved from France to Haiti. When the revolution started there they got on the first boat available. It happen to be going to Phila, so that is where they opened a new business. Several pieces of their silver are still on display at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

According to their own history or myth, the nation sold their souls to the devil to gain freedom from France. They have been suffering the consequences ever since.

Eric Prince, the head of the mercenary / security company Blackwater, was claiming on-line he could take Haiti with 4000 men and 70 fixed-wing and helicopter aircraft.

at this point, Haiti should be turned into someone else’s property / colony. It would be the humane thing to do.

So is Barbecue the good guy? The gubment of Haiti is as corrupt as the day is long. I guess I’ll just have to believe whatever our honest media here in the USA reports.

Dominican Republic has closed the border to all Haitians except for students attending school in DR.

“Outward migration during an election year in the US” is all part of the plan. Remind them to vote early and vote often.

PM Henry could get back if he halfway wanted to.

I don’t think there are any “good guys” involved on any of the sides of this conflict.
