27. Haiti Q & A
Aristide agreed to every condition made by "the opposition", as laid out in the OAS. Every time he agreed, they made another demand.

"As violent gangs invade Haitian towns, murdering police and opening jails, news reports repeat several catch phrases as if everyone knew their meaning. In fact, those catch phrases—from "the opposition" to "flawed (or fraudulent) elections of 2000"—are laden with political and historical freight."
