Yes I agree let's get the facts straight, main or otherwise. The U.S.,
France and other parties concerned did not want any solution short of
Aristide being out of the picture and through delay tactics and
signals given to Haiti's opposition they accomplished their goal.
The Haitian opposition was doing the bidding jointly with the foreign
powers and agreeing to what could have preserved democratic
processes in Haiti wasn't called for by the U.S.. All parties
involved, Aristide excluded, rejected the plan because it would have
been in the way of "sudden intervention".

The one key factor curiously omitted from this account of Caricom's
"peace
plan" was that the Haitian "opposition" which had to accept the
proposal,
flatly rejected it and insisted on Aristide's resignation, thereby
dooming
the proposal (as most could have predicted). The omission made it look
as
though the US, France, and OAS rejected the plan by their sudden
intervention. Duhh. It was dead.

Let's get at least the main facts straight.!!
