Warning that Haiti is quickly heading toward chaos, France called for the resignation of embattled President Jean-Bertrand Aristide and for the immediate establishment of a transitional government.

French Foreign Minister Dominique de Villepin on Wednesday unveiled a five-point initiative that also calls for an international civilian force to restore order and back up a new "national unity" government.

"A race is under way between those who support violence and those who are still hoping for a peaceful solution," de Villepin said in a statement.

AWOL only knows how to butcher people of the world, has no idea how to peacefully engage the world.
