Washington's Militarized Takeover Of Haiti

Haiti is no stranger to adversity and anguish - over 500 years of severe oppression, slavery, despotism, colonization, reparations, embargoes, sanctions, deep poverty, starvation, unrepayable debt, and natural calamities from destructive hurricanes to a dozen magnitude 7.0 or greater Caribbean region earthquakes in the past 500 years. The last major one was in 1946 at 8.1 in the adjacent Dominican Republic, also striking Haiti. Earlier catastrophic ones were in 1751 and 1770, both devastating Port-au-Prince, and the 1842 one destroying Cap-Haitien in the north.

Many patterns emerge from events if you look closely. There appears to be nothing short of a military take over in Haiti. Many of those going to help are turned away. Many trying to get aid and resources to the Haitians are turned away. Does this sound familiar? Does Hurricane Katrina ring a bell? Is it coincidental that poor people are always finding themselves in these situations?

The world economic system has winners and losers. This does not occur by accident. The people of third world countries are forced into poverty by corrupt governments, (usually friendly to the U.S. government), and forced loans that can never be paid back. The corrupt governments then open the countries resources to exploitation from international companies. The people may be hired on as slave labor to surrender their countries resources. In any event, the game has been the same for many years. This game is the globalist agenda.

The U.S. has spent billions of tax payer dollars to arm Israel to the teeth, while spending next to nothing on aid to poor countries. If you throw in the cost of the 9-11 wars, (all enemies of Israel) you have a staggering amount of money that could have been used for our own countries needs, along with providing a lot of help to others. When will people wake up to the fact that unending war is unsustainable and the primary cause of our severe decline that can be likened to the Soviet collapse of the late 80's?

Meanwhile Americans spend billions on donating to charities each disaster, to only learn that much of the aid donated, never reaches the people who need it most. Look at the newest, convenient way to donate, send a text message and ten dollars will be deducted from your phone bill. It's quick, easy, cheap and you feel like you did a good thing for those less fortunate. However I would be curious as to how much of that ten dollars actually made it to a Haitian in need.

So we shall see, but right now this appears to be another wipe the slate clean operation like Katrina was. How many poor people who were displaced are back in New Orleans? How many fancy condo projects were built in place of affordable housing for the poor. When the death and destruction subside in Haiti, how many poor Haitians will be left? My guess is about enough to serve the rich who will turn their country into another vacation destination, for just like New Orleans, what else do you do when an area is wiped clean of the poor? Rebuild condos and resorts and casinos! How convenient it is when a disaster strikes. Just like a predator, the U.S. government will never let a good disaster go to waste! Be it caused by man or nature. The line between the two becoming more blurred with each passing day!

Haiti's Crisis

The death toll in the recent Haitian earthquake will be staggering. As staggering as the conditions were before the earthquake. You see, Haiti, is the poorest country in the western hemisphere. As this article shows, malnutrition, poverty, government corruption, and hopelessness were a daily fact of life even before the earthquake. Don't get me wrong, the earthquake is just another tragedy heaped upon a series of tragedies bestowed upon these people. If it is possible, there can be some good to come from the earthquake, and this is how.

The earthquake, as terrible as it is, could perhaps bring some much needed attention to this impoverished country. With the worlds attention cast upon them, perhaps a better understanding of what really happened can be attained. For you see, the earthquake could, in an ironic twist of fate, be the saving grace of Haiti. Haiti is an example of globalism. Haiti is an example of U.S. intervention in political affairs. Haiti is an example of how being dependent on the IMF is a disaster for all poor countries who rely on this world banking system that is supposed to help impoverished countries. Nothing could be farther from the truth. The IMF is the wealth extraction arm of the world bank that seals the fate of those who rely on them for help.

The rich countries of the world continue to suck the resources of the poor like a giant hoover.
In Haiti, 30 years ago, they had the capacity to provide their own food. After intervention and a puppet regime was installed, loans secured by the IMF sealed the countries fate. Rice, heavily subsidized by the U.S. was sold to the Haitians. Cheap labor was guaranteed for the state's textile companies. The results were obvious. Poverty and starvation continued to be the norm. All because of a global monetary system that makes it impossible to repay loans. Sound familiar?

This system of enslavement has been around a long time. Haiti is just one example of the total attempted control and genocide of certain groups of people. To this day, the ruling elite of the world view with disgust the 3rd world impoverished people of the world, when they all know damn well that they are the people responsible for this situation. They view it as a game. It is an Endgame. Survival of the fittest. These people have always been the psychopaths that have ruled.
The sad truth is as you watch all of the heroic efforts to help the people of Haiti, realize that all of the death and destruction you see is not just from the earthquake. You are witnessing hundreds of years of forgotten oppression. The attention being given to Haiti is long overdue. The sad part is that only a catastrophe of the likes of complete devastation brings out the much needed help. That exact behavior is what must change. The best of us should not be reserved for crisis. We should exemplify it to everyone, each and every day. Haiti is a reminder of just how broken our system truly is. May we be strong enough to demand the much needed change in this system. May we all learn to be empathetic to the sufferings of those in need. May we be granted the courage to dismantle the system that was partially responsible for the crisis in Haiti.
