7060: Slavin Responds to Bébé Pierre-Louis (fwd)

[Bob Corbett <corbetre@webster.edu>]

I appreciate your response and many other contributions you make to the Corbett 
list. I cannot argue 
with your point. My posting was based on real politik, not the moral principals 
you have correctly argued 
with -- that as long as there is an armed force in Haiti, whether the Army or 
SIMO, a time will come when a 
President will be threatened by it –– the history of Haiti makes this clear, 
unfortunately. And if that 
President is not prepared to respond, exile awaits, like Estime in Jamaica and 
Aristide in Venezeula and 
later, Georgetown.
