At 12:30 in the morning of May 10, approximately 20 U.S. Marines executed a military assault on the Port-au-Prince home of 69-year-old Annette Auguste, a.k.a. Souer Anne._ Auguste�s residence is part of a compound that includes four other apartments that were also invaded by the U.S. military forces._ The troops covered the heads of 11 Haitians with black hoods and then forced them to lay face down on the ground while binding their wrists with plastic manacles behind their backs. The victims of this terrifying U.S. military invasion included five-year-old Chamyr Samedi, 10-year-old Kerlande Philippe, 12-year-old Loubahida Augustine, 14-year-old Luckman Augustine, and seven adults.

From BlackCommentator

The Marines blew up a vehicle and a substantial part of Auguste�s three-story house, leaving behind c4 and c5 explosives paraphernalia including blasting caps and igniters. Not a single member of the Haitian National Police force (PNH) or the de facto Haitian government was present when the U.S. forces attacked the residence, said the arrestees._

All the detainees except Auguste were released after questioning.

According to Haitian law, as is the norm in any democratic country, no arrest can be made without a proper warrant issued by judicial authorities._ The Haitian Constitution requires that warrants only be executed between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. The lack of any legality within the context of Haitian law and the fact this was executed unilaterally by U.S. military forces raises serious questions of national sovereignty and the role of the U.S. military in Haiti today._
Seems like there is a communication problem...

It took you a month to come up with this?
Why is there always money for war, but none for education?

As I posted earlier, your government has a rather large imprint on the world, and that entitles those affected to express their opinion.

That I am anti-american is false. That I am critical of many policies of the U.S. government is true. And I am equally critical of Canada's policies. I am also very critical of the Corporate attitude, which is not totally American, and is shared by all industrialized countries. I actually never said that Canada is better than any other country, including the U.S...

Looks like dcolton has lost it.

He may need some rest from the political forum.

So, I ask the same question I ask in the other thread about the 3 iraqis.

Why should I believe a single word that this loonytoon, crackpot, voodoo priest woman is saying ?


Raymond Joseph, the new interim government's diplomatic representative in Washington, alleges she officiated at a voodoo ceremony last summer in which a baby was sacrificed.

Some people here will obviously believe anything, told by anybody, as long as it's something implicating the USA in something bad, lol.
