293001: lyall (comment) Cuban Doctors in Haiti (fwd)
from JD Lyall:
I don't know where potemaksonje gets the idea that people are opposed to the
Cuban doctors. I've lived around the Dokte Kiban in the countryside. Maybe
Haitian doctors don't like them here, but thats the only thing I've heard.
There is also some confusion about the 'reds'. The haitian communists were in
the opposition to Aristide. I also don't recall the government of Cuba rallying
to the defense of Aristide. As a matter of fact, I recall the Cuban ambassador
criticizing the Lavalas government for being dysfunctional and corrupt.
