Paisley Dodds' latest AP report reads:

"...distrustful of foreign assistance and especially of the United States,
which three times invaded Haiti. The first invasion led to a 19-year
military occupation that ended in 1934. The last restored Aristide to power
in 1994 after his ouster in a military coup. "

OK, The first (invasion) led to a 19-year occupation. The last (invasion)
restored Aristide to power in 1994. Unless there's another one kept secret from
all of us, that makes two (2) invasions, not three (3). And may the third
invasion never, ever materialize! Someone else here (Kathleen?) has already pointed
out his error. AP, Reuters, et. al.: are you listening, reading, watching?
