Charles Arthur writes - In the September report on USAID's Office of
Transition Initiatives (OTI) Haiti field programme, there is the following section:

"OTI continues to work closely with the U.S. Embassy and IOM to develop
options for a reintegration program for former combatants. Training and management
specialists of the Kosovo Protection Corps, a civilian response unit
consisting primarily of former Kosovo Liberation Army members, have been brought to
Haiti to assess how the Kosovo model might be applied there. OTI and IOM have
also closely followed the negotiations between the former military and the IGoH.
The creation this month of the Bureau for the Management of Demobilized
Military presents an opportunity for OTI and the international community to support
IGoH efforts to resolve the conflict with the former military. Coordination
efforts with the U.N. peacekeeping force, IGoH, and other stakeholders are
underway."

I am confused. Is this terrorists helping freedom fighters to fight
terrorists? Or is it the other way around?
