I’m sure there are many compassionate people who are working in Haiti and there surely are many opportunists looking to make a dollar or to gain a strategic advantage or to grab some poor orphan to traffic.

But with America running the show there’s no worry. After all, the Greatest Nation in the History of the World wouldn’t do anything untoward, would they?

Later on when the crew wanted to check out if everything was ok with the child, it turned out they couldn’t find the baby – and the ‘doctor’ – either.

Perhaps the corporate hospitals sees this ‘incident’ more as a ‘great’ opportunity than a disaster in it’s insatiable need of spare parts.

I bring this story to you, because it seems to be a sheer Danish (TV crew) story. The question is – How many cases/casualties will ‘disappear’ in the same way ?

Well, they can’t seem to leave the airport in Haiti! According to Democracy Now!, there are supplies and doctors sitting at the airport, military air traffic blocking aid planes and ships. People are still wiothout food and water, still in the rubble!
All while the official word is that they have to be careful how they distribute the supplies, because you know how desperate people can behave!!!!!

Denk, we sure don’t want to put radical ideas into the peasant’s minds, ideas like them questioning the inequality between their lives and the lives of the rich and perhaps wanting to change things. No, we want to hold up the dream that everyone can be rich, even if most people never will.

Spike, people who make armaments and munitions, or make money out of shares in such enterprises, love money most. Their children are further back in the queue.

Grace, American army boots are on the ground. The question is: will they ever leave?

I heard on KPFA, that: even with all the money puring in from around the world, the poorest people in the outlying regions have received no help at all yet.

I would think the best we can hope is that Aristide will be allowed back in to live and serve his people.

Good question Spike. I too have wondered that very thing. I don’t understand any of the toxin purveyors and polluters. That is the kind of brain-dead American I think David refers to.

Do those persons who produce DU munitions for war love their own children?

hello dg
the last time yanks did their “peacekeeping” duty in haiti……
“FRAPH members interviewed by Wall Street Journal correspondents Helene Cooper and Jose de Cordoba said they had no problems with the Americans troops. While the attacks on the demonstrators are underway, one said, “U.S. soldiers riding by on their `Humvee’ armored vehicles wave cheerfully to FRAPH members, who wave back.” At the September 30 anniversary march, the WSJ report continues, “those Humvees, along with tanks and other armored vehicles, staged a massive show of `presence’ with the intention of containing the pro-Aristide demonstration to downtown, and addressing what appears to be the U.S.’s principal fear: that mobs of President Aristide’s supporters will go on a rampage against wealthy Haitians and supporters of the military regime.”

Here in the US there is never any doubt that all the money for war will be there whenever it is wanted, but for real helthcare reform there is nothing. All congress is doing now is finding new ways to get even more money out of the little people and into the pockets of the insurance and medical industry, and, of course, a little extra for the government so it can wage more wars.

The US is pretty much backward on just about everything!
