Great Expectations?

Why would anyone expect that former U.S. president Bill Clinton would work to end the U.N.’s occupation of Haiti?

He is, after all, the new U.S. designated U.N. ‘special’ envoy to Haiti and as such he has rebellions to quell, resources to steal, people to disappear…

So why would anyone presume that Clinton will negotiate his own unemployment by disbanding his merry band of MINUSTAH thugs?

Why would anyone presume that Clinton would defy the Haitian elite and fight for the return of President Aristide to Haiti?

Why would Clinton defy the dictates of Presidents Washington through Obama and acknowledge the will of the Haitian people to be free?

A brief review of historical events in Haiti seems politic, at this point.

Haiti has fought for her dignity, sovereignty, and freedom despite the ravages of Columbus, the political assassinations of Toussaint L’Ouverture and Jean Jacques Dessalines before and after winning a war of independence from 1791 – 1804 against Europe’s military might and $US 400,000 in foreign aid; the mortgaging of her future by a 150M franc payment to France; the U.S. Marine invasion of the country and robbery of her treasury in 1915; and 31 more coups d’etat.

FANMI LAVALAS has TWICE democratically elected the same president -Jean-Bertrand Aristide, only to have him TWICE overthrown by Euro-America (once with Canadian assistance,) in just over a decade’s time, once in 1990 and again in 2004.

TWICE Haiti’s FANMI LAVALAS has successfully boycotted fraudulent, U.S. financed and instigated/UN sponsored senatorial elections, once in April and again in June of 2009.

Additionally Haiti has:

(1) Continued to fight for the same TPS that this same U.S. designated ‘Special’ envoy denied as an incoming U.S. president in 1993,

(2) Continued to accept nothing less than liberty or death in her ongoing battle for dignity, freedom, sovereignty, and freedom from foreign domination and control.

(3) Continued to do battle daily with the combined military might of the nearly 10,000 U.N. ‘casque bleu’ (blue helmeted) U.N. soldiers who have invaded and occupied Haiti since the 2004 coup against President Aristide.

(4) Continued to fight for the freedom of ALL political prisoners, specifically Ronald Dauphin

(5) Fought on all fronts – in the parliament, senate, courts, and on the streets for a decent and livable minimum wage

(6) Continued to mobilize, as she has throughout her history, specifically in her Diaspora, where it is estimated that her ’10th department’ (people who live outside of Haiti) sends millions of dollars annually back to Haiti.

(7) Continued to fight this same U.N. military that has committed and continues to commit numerous human rights atrocities, (U.N. Accommodates Human Rights Abuses by Haitian Police by HIP http://www.haitiaction.net/News/HIP/5_8_5/5_8_5.html
shoots to kill babies in their homes with head shots and even into a massive grieving populace (U.N. Denials in Haiti http://www.haitiaction.net/News/HIP/6_30_9/6_30_9.html
as an attempted warning that funerals for beloved heroes such as Pe Jery Jean Juste, support for alleged ‘bandits,’ continued demonstrations for the return of a democratically elected presidential family in exile (the Jean-Bertrand Aristides) and demonstrations and demands for justice for a disappeared human rights hero (Lovinsky-Pierre Antoine) will not be tolerated.

All of these things say that the poor of Haiti, i.e. 97% of the population, and its leadership – is still strong, despite all attempts by the powers that be to the contrary.

Thus Cowboy Bill Clinton, he of the multi-tasking uses of cigars, is dragging a red herring over AYITI (Haiti) by his recent appointment of Paul Farmer as his U.N. Deputy Special Envoy to Haiti, cementing the fiction that he, Cowboy Bill is in Haiti to act in Haiti’s best interests.

For obviously, Haiti cannot do this for herself…

Neither of the Clinton’s are in Haiti on behalf of the people of Haiti, nor have they ever been.

For while Clinton pretends to ‘promote democracy’ in Haiti, in actuality he plays the same ‘secret agent man’ game he’s played previously.

He dismisses U.N. MINUSTAH alleged ‘bandit raid’ massacres of an unarmed Haitian populace as mere ‘controversy and incident,’ bolstering the ‘collateral damage,’ songs of MINUSTAH leaders Juan Gabriel Valdes (1 June 2004 -31 May 2006) Guatemalan Edmond Mulet (1 June 2006 – 31 August 2007) and UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon.

Most specifically were the 6 July 2005, the 22 December 2006, and the 2 February 2007 massacres in Cite Soleil, including the assassination of Dred Wilme.

There were many more massacres and attacks by the ‘casque bleu’ (blue helmets) of MINUSTAH, in conjunction with the Canadian trained Haitian National Police, and the paid minions of the U.S. CIA – (FRAPH) – led by Emmanuel ‘Toto’ Constant integrated into police ranks by the U. N. MINUSTAH forces.

These attacks were all against unarmed Haitian civilians in poor communities, against FANMI LAVALAS members, and against backers of President Jean-Bertrand Aristide.

And they were not ‘mere collateral damage.’ They were concerted targeted attacks against a political power of the people that the powers that be cannot defeat.

The people on the ground in AYITI know this.

One has only to read the following books and articles to get a peoples’ analysis of what is in store for Haiti with Cowboy Bill as UN Special Envoy.

Clinton’s ‘silence’ challenged in Haiti, by Kevin Pina http://www.haitiaction.net/News/HIP/7_7_9/7_7_9.html

THE USES OF HAITI by Paul Farmer

Clinton worked to destabilize Haiti.

Now he’s back to attempt to finish what he started. Hurricane Bill meets MINUSTAH.

He hopes to destabilize Haiti as well as to derail any unity between the people of Haiti and the people of the Honduras, whose recently deposed President Zelaya fought for the people of Honduras in much the same ways that President Aristide fought for the people of Haiti.

Clinton has deemed Haiti ‘safer today’ because of the United Nations MINUSTAH invasion army of nearly 10,000 as it terrorizes the country raping, pillaging, and murdering with impunity.

Cowboy Bill also deemed it ‘safe’ to grant concessions of amnesty to Haitian mass murderer Franck Romain, (mastermind of the 1988 Saint Jean Bosco massacre,) and Brigadier General Raoul Cedras, (leader of the first U.S. instigated coup d’etat against President Aristide in 1991) during his tenure as president.

Cedras was in the pay of the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency at the time, along with the deadly paramilitary FRAPH and its leader ‘Toto’ Constant.

Presidential hopeful Bill Clinton campaigned to halt the vicious George Bush policies of denying TPS to Haitians, imprisoned at Guantanamo Bay.

A victorious President Clinton promptly flipped the script and backed Bush in denying the 300 Haitians then in Guantanamo Bay prison their human rights. ‘Captured By Guantanamo,’ http://www.opendemocracy.net/globalization-institutions_government/guantanamo_haiti_2867.jsp

Just as Lincoln didn’t free enslaved Afrikans in the U.S., Clinton didn’t work to righteously ‘return’ President Aristide to power in 1994.

Instead, like France, he attempted to return Haiti to right wing control by forcing attempts at U.S. rule of Haiti by proxy due to U.S. government dislike of Aristide’s ‘leftist’ democracy and his further assertions of capitalism as ‘a mortal sin.’

Clinton legitimized the coup d’etat of 1990 against President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, and assisted in subsequent attempts to completely destabilize Haiti.

By default, he – and Hilary – also legitimize the coup d’etat of 2004 in Haiti and do for Obama what Condoleeza Rice/Colin Powell did for Bush: attempt to destabilize Haiti and prevent her from becoming a world power, particularly in the western hemisphere.

It does not take rocket science to discern that Cowboy Bill is in Haiti to divert peoples’ attention while he and his wife prop up U.S. control of Haiti via the Andy Apaids, the Haitian elites, the Group of 184, the World Bank, and the IMF, as a repeat performance in 2009 – while stealing Haiti’s oil and other lucrative resources from the poor to give to the rich.

These resources include, but are not limited to, the institutional enslavement of Haiti’s people, whose working wage is a whopping 70 gourdes per day (less than 38 cents per hour) by order of the current puppet president, Rene Preval.

The U.S. enslaver has sent its overseer/puppet masters – complete with cigars and whips – to inspect its minions and to keep them in line, in what the U.S. considers to be its ‘failed state’ plantation.

Obviously, the overseers seek to present a gift wrapped Haiti with a nice sauce and a partridge in a pear tree to an Obama administration and white house victory celebration, tied with ‘foreign investments’ and an NGO bow.

Frederick Douglas reminded us that ‘Until She Spoke’ ‘… no Christian nation had given to the world an organized effort to abolish slavery…’
Until She Spoke by Frederick Douglas

And El Hajj Malik El Shabazz reminded us in his 1964 ‘Ballot or the Bullet’ speech that … you don’t take your case to the criminal (he created the problem) you take your criminal to court…

And President Aristide was deadly accurate when he said that:

“Pèp pa achte libète ak demokrasi nan mache,”

The people do not buy liberty and democracy at the market.

In this case, it’s the peoples’ market and the peoples’ court, and the people have spoken.

They haven’t stopped speaking.

They’ve been saying ‘liberty or death’ since the first Taino rebellions, since Toussaint L’Ouverture and since Jean Jacques Dessalines.

So why are there those who are still foolishly braying to these modern day ‘great white hope’ wanna be’s, Bill & Hillary Clinton, for some kind of deliverance?

FANMI LAVALAS is the people of Haiti. The people of Haiti are FANMI LAVALAS.

They don’t need Bill and Hillary.

President Jean-Bertrand Aristide refused to sell out Haiti. He is in exile.

Lovinsky Pierre Antoine refused to sell out Haiti. He is disappeared.

Pe Jery Jean Juste refused to sell out Haiti. He was murdered, though his spirit will be with us always.

The fight for Aristide’s return continues. The fight to discover what has happened to Lovinsky Pierre-Antoine continues. Pe Jery’s fight for the liberation of Haiti continues in the hearts, minds, spirits, souls, and bodies of we who uncompromisingly will be free.

Tankou wozo nou pliye, men nou pa kase… Like reeds the people bend but do not break.

a luta continua
