I have been posting about this and not been able to prove that there are thugs running around saying they are "Aristide supporters" doing violence to provide fodder for the propaganda-check this out:
http://www.haiti-progres.com/eng02-11.htmlThis was dated February 11 about when the US Armed Surrogate army invaded Haiti and began taking territory and performing targetted assasinations.(on February 5)
"The next day, armed men from the opposition-aligned organization RAMICOS attacked the police station 25 miles south of Gonaïves in the town of St. Marc, which also straddles the strategic main artery to Haiti’s north. They also looted and burned the customs house and some containers. The police rapidly retreated, apparently in cahoots with the attackers, for whom they left behind all the station’s weapons and ammunition. One of the station’s commanders, a former Haitian army soldier, is known to be close to fellow former soldier and rising opposition leader, Dany Toussaint, who recently defected from Aristide’s Lavalas Family party (FL).
Police complicity appears to have been involved in at least a few of the other town takeovers by the opposition. While reports are conflicting, the armed opposition appears to have, at least briefly, controlled about ten smaller towns, among them Trou du Nord, Saint-Raphaël, Dondon, Marchand-Dessalines, Ennery, Gros-Morne, L’Estère, Anse-Rouge, Petite Rivière de l’Artibonite, as well as Grand Goâve in the south. In many cases, public buildings and the homes of government officials or supporters were burned or looted. Reports of these takeovers, however real or brief, provided fuel for the panic which opposition controlled radio stations, and consequently their corporate media information dependents, have sought to spread."
Basically, before this all came down, they bought off part of Aristide's army so they would have thugs to blame it all on and tie it to Aristide. THE ARISTIDE "SUPPORTERS" running around doing the same kind of violence as the Fraph killers are actually part of the GANG and the main targets are LAvalas Party members and community organizers who are working with them, as well as members of other parties who have worked with them-everyone else dying is just incidental to the Surrogate Army-they want to create a sense of general lawlessness to terrorize everyone and convince the world that Haiti needs a regime change with US help because the blacks are just so violent, they can't run their own country. THIS IS NOT JUST ABOUT DEMOCRACY it is about RACISM -
Don't let this die! good dedicated people are dying right NOW and silence is complicity, propaganda is poison. Aristide's only message to his people and the world was that the "roots of the tree of peace grow deep, they are Louverturian" He called for peace. We can make the killing stop if we are loud enough, persistent enough. I have lived through so many coup d'etats in my lifetime while the world slept-this is the only the second one that I have been able to watch on the internet. I met MArtin Luther King Jr when I was about 8 years old-I will never forget what he said to me- "You can go anywhere you want, be anyone you want to be, BUT DON'T FORGET WHAT YOU KNOW, DON'T EVER FORGET WHAT YOU KNOW IS TRUE."
