US occupiers stealthily privatizing Haiti water: HLLN on Haiti cholera case against the occupiers
By Ezili Danto (about the author)

(This article is part 3 of a larger essay titled US to Rewrite Constitution to Better Serve the One Percent by Ezili Danto of HLLN. Some excerpts from other parts of the article are noted at the beginning here.

Part 3 - US occupiers stealthily privatizing Haiti water: HLLN on the Haiti cholera case against the occupiers

- "There's a new move by the discredited Haiti rescuers, led today by Obama/the Clintons/USAID/UN, the Paul Farmer-led NGOS and their International Financing Institutions to refocus their fundraising scam away from "earthquake reconstruction relief" now to "cholera relief," or to "local agriculture relief," and "mining protection relief for Haitians!" It's a slightly repackaged imperial economic pillage but the same old arsonist/fireman modus operandi. Same failures intended to enrich the global North, impoverish Haiti" --Excerpt from US to Rewrite Constitution to Better Serve the One Percent, Part 1 - Haiti: USAID/NGO/WB money laundering continues

- "..Neither Oxfam, nor the World Bank are questioning that US Newmont mining, VCS Mining and Canada's Eurasian, St Genieve, Majescor mining et al, have managed to get the puppet Haiti president to unlawfully WAIVE Haiti environmental and mining laws- its Constitutional laws - in order for Northern miners to do OPEN PIT mining in areas close to earthquake fault lines in the North, in a country devastated by the last earthquake and with its water table already poisoned with UN cholera. The corporate media - liberal and conservative - are blithely writing PR articles about the World Bank "helping" Haiti draft new mining laws, conducting no investigation, ignoring the apparent suborning of local Haiti officials to do illegal and harmful acts more apocalyptic to Haiti and its people than the 2010 earthquake. There's no outrage or concern that mining and oil drilling are known to cause earthquakes." --Excerpt from US to Rewrite Constitution to Better Serve the One Percent, Part 2: The Haiti population must look out for itself

- "If Peru's $5 billion Newmont mine project requires displacing huge amounts of Peruvian water sources, how much more is Haiti's $20 billion gold mine project going to deplete Haiti aquifers and other water sources which are already in grave shortage because of UN cholera poisoning?" --Excerpt from US to Rewrite Constitution to Better Serve the One Percent, Part 5: US occupiers mining on fault lines

- "Haiti "s water supply is ALREADY contaminated by foreign cholera feces, what will leaking cyanide, arsenic emissions, mine waste, Marine ecosystem destruction and open pit mining and unsupervised drilling leave Haiti with up North?" --Excerpt from US to Rewrite Constitution to Better Serve the One Percent, Part 5: US occupiers mining on fault lines

"As long as white supremacy paints Haiti as a failed state because of weak public services, when Haiti is prevented by US unfair trade and World Bank/IMF structural adjustments from investing in its own local economy and paints the Clintons, Paul Farmers, UN, World Bank, the NGOs and their three-piece suited Eurocentric-Haiti collaborators with the mark of international distinction and service to humanity, Haiti's pains will continue to be their cash cow." --Excerpt from US to Rewrite Constitution to Better Serve the One Percent, Part 1 - Haiti: USAID/NGO/WB money laundering continues

1. Haiti has a failed government structure

The governance structure in Haiti has collapsed. It's a classical case of environmental and overpopulation collapse as described by Dr Jared Diamond. The article above is a highly politized and disorganized tract which seems to jump from subject to subject in a scatter shot manner. It's typical of what we see when the author has a rabid political aim and is seeking a similar audience. Such rage is unproductive because an article such as this really lacks traction. What's needed instead? A focused description of what exactly is happening to the water supply. Without the baloney about "UN supplied cholera" and the completely irrelevant mention of Peru.
