When I first read this I thought they were talking about Bush and the Florida
"sleight of hand" election.  Where was France and their outrage then?  The
election of Aristide was never in question, why do they keep harping on this?
 The problem these people have (like Jean-Claude Bajeux) is they are trying
to figure out how they can control things and take power without having to be
elected.  They claim to be privy to the methods to improve life in Haiti but
they never have fixed Haiti before, how is it they all of a sudden got smart?
 I think if they were smart they would learn how to negotiate, reach
consensus, compromise and achieve win-win solutions.  To me, that seems like
a pie-in-the-sky dream at this point.

of December 11th and December 17th – days that saw the brutal execution of
the journalist, Brignol Lindor; and the arson of the Democratic

I would share his profound distress if this man saw his way clear to include
brutal murders of Lavalas supporters occuring at the same time and before.  I
guess it's only wrong if it happens to your guys, when it happens to the
other side, it's justified.

Jean-Claude, if you want to see the end of the war in Haiti, stop trying to
kill democracy.  They are telling you that 1991 will not happen again.  If
you stop trying to kill it, it will stop trying to kill you.  Your outrage is
misplaced.  Work to stop corruption, which is class-wide.  See all the bad
around you not just the bad done by the peasant class.  Work together.  That
is the only way to save Haiti.  Those 8 million people are not going to
disappear.
