The Unforgiven Country Cries Out

Hope must not be blind; you have to acknowledge the grim realities in order to know just what you're up against. So let's take a long, hard look.

By Peter Hallward

If we are serious about assisting this devastated land we must stop trying to control and exploit it.

Haitian Earthquake

Why the Blood Is on Our Hands

By Ted Rall

As grim accounts of the earthquake in Haiti came in, the accounts in U.S.-controlled state media all carried the same descriptive sentence: "Haiti is the poorest country in the Western hemisphere..." Gee, I wonder how that happened?

Pat Robertson: Haiti 'Cursed' By 'Pact To The Devil'

Video

"They got together and swore a pact to the devil. They said, we will serve you if you'll get us free from the French. True story. And so, the devil said, okay it's a deal.

Haiti Disaster Capitalism Alert: Stop Them Before They Shock Again

Readers of the The Shock Doctrine know that the Heritage Foundation has been one of the leading advocates of exploiting disasters to push through their unpopular pro-corporate policies.

Haiti: Limbaugh was Bad, but ..

From a website promoting Anti-Obama and Anti-Democratic Party rants, Republicans in general, the Tea Party Movement and Conservative politicians comes one of the worst examples of political opportunism over the disaster in Haiti I've seen to date.

The Militarization of Emergency Aid to Haiti

Is it a Humanitarian Operation or an Invasion?

By Michel Chossudovsky

The overall humanitarian operation is not being led by civilian governmental agencies such as FEMA or USAID, but by the Pentagon.

Haiti: The Price of Freedom

By Carolyn Cooper

The US refused to recognise the new Haitian republic and imposed an embargo that lasted until 1862. In 1915, the US invaded Haiti to protect its economic interests and remained in occupation until 1934. Local Haitian leaders were no less predatory than foreign forces, as demonstrated in the truly terrifying reign of Papa and Baby Doc.

Witness to a nightmare

ON SATURDAY, Hillary Clinton flew into Haiti to oversee the relief effort--supposedly. But I think her trip to Haiti tells you all you need to know: They had to shut down the airport for three hours so she could land, which meant that no actual aid flights could come in.

US accused of annexing airport as squabbling hinders aid effort in Haiti

Brazil and France lodged an official ­protest with Washington after US military aircraft were given priority at Port-au-Prince's congested airport, forcing many non-US flights to divert to the Dominican Republic.

Haiti's elite spared from much of the devastation

Search-and-rescue operations have been intensely focused on buildings with international aid workers, such as the crushed U.N. headquarters, and on large hotels with international clientele. Some international rescue workers said they are being sent to find foreign nationals first.

Schon wieder helfen alle Haiti. Wer solche Freunde hat...

Noch ist die Zahl der Opfer des Erdbebens längst nicht klar - in jedem Fall war es ein einziger Schrecken. Und während die Mainstream-Medien neben der Suche nach möglichst ergreifenden Bildern sich vor allem der Selbstdarstellung der Güte großer Mächte widmen geht es in unserer aktuellen kleinen Materialsammlung "Ein politisches Erdbeben" vom 15. Januar 2010 vor allem um die nichtnatürlichen Hintergründe dieser Katastrophe: http://www.labournet.de/internationales/rh/politerdbeben.html
