Father Jean Juste Has been Released<br><br>
Yesterday, father Jean Juste was brought to the Canapervert hospital in
Haiti to be seen by oncologist experts the illegal Haitian authorities
had engaged who never showed up. <br><br>
Father Jean Juste was visibly suffering from leukemia and the ravages of
pneumonia, complaining of shortness of breath. After keeping him at the
hospital for three hours, our source indicates the de facto Haitian
authorities told Jean Juste there was no bed and no doctors to see him
and returned him back to prison.<br><br>
This morning father Jean Juste was "conditionally" released
from prison and, is currently, as I write this piece, landed in Miami and
going through immigration. He will then head to a Miami hospital,
accompanied by Bill Quigley, Dr. Jennifer Furin, from the Harvard Medical
School, representatives from Veye Yo, including Lavarice Gaudin and
Miami's Haitian community.<br><br>
Men Anpil Chay Pa lou! <br><br>
But, there are over 1,000 Haitian political prisoners in Haiti. Like Jean
Juste, many of them were handed over to this US-orchestrated lawlessness
by the MINUSTHA (UN) forces. Fact is, Mario Andresol and Latortue's
so-called "preventive detention" is nothing more than official
kidnapping. <br><br>
Today's New York Times article barely scratches the surface of US
meddling in Haitian affairs (See, Democracy Undone: Mixed US Signals
Helped Tilt Haiti Towards
Chaos."<a href="https://lists.riseup.net/www/arc/ezilidanto/2006-01/msg00002.html" eudora="autourl">
https://lists.riseup.net/www/arc/ezilidanto/2006-01/msg00002.html</a> )
The crucial implication made in this article is that Ambassador James
Foley was MORE amenable to applying IRI/Stanley Lucas'
"no-negotiation" policy for unseating the elected government of
President Aristide than Ambassador Dean Curran was. Yet, the
article doesn't mention, what Haitians see as the callous and criminal
roles of former Ambassador James Foley and now Haiti Democracy Project's
Timothy Carney in the removal of over 7,000 elected and appointed Haitian
officials and the return of the bloody Haitian army, with the
international community supporting TEN years back pay to this murderous
group. It does hangs Stanley Lucas out to dry, but fails to mention the
culpability of the respondiat superior, President Bush, IRI’s ultimate
boss. Or, the culpability of those on IRI’s board, such as, Republican
foreign-policy heavyweights and lobbyists, and its chairman Senator John
McCain, who some say is the 2008 Republican presidential hopeful to
contend with.<br><br>
So, perhaps this New York Times article is more damage control, than a
willingness to tell the truth. Even so, for those who have refused to
give credence to HLLN's advocacy and reporting of US orchestration of the
bi-centennial coup d'etat, its training of the former Haitian military
and coup d'etat paramilitaries to launch the violence against Haiti's
fledging democracy, this article is a must read as it is a speck of truth
in the darkness of Washington's bottomless deceptions and lies about
Haiti. It begins to identify, for the well, the Washington
Chimeres.<br><br>
It begins to outlines why Haitian death and failures serves Washington's
interests and Halliburton and Chevron's interests. Haiti at war makes
them profits, allows for waste of AID monies that never helps to develop
Haiti, but to enrich Washington NGO's, former USAID mission directors,
and State Department and UN officials and cronies with jobs.<br><br>
Still even though this "Democracy Undone" article still speaks
in (Einaudi, Reich, Noreiga's) forked tongue, it is a marked departure
for the New York Times from the normal obfuscations and half-truths. It
begin an analysis we hope shal continue and be delved further into.
(<a href="https://lists.riseup.net/www/arc/ezilidanto/2006-01/msg00002.html" eudora="autourl">
https://lists.riseup.net/www/arc/ezilidanto/2006-01/msg00002.html </a>)
It renews our campaign to request an investigation of US officials in
Haiti and their corrupting roles. The article should interests some US
Congresspeople to press again for an investigation.<br><br>
The timing though is interesting. Why now? Poukisa New York Times kase
kord avek Bush kounye-a? A few days before the State of the Union
Address? The day Jean Juste is release?<br><br>
Those of us in the know merely see another con job in the making. For, I
know for a fact, was there at the Montana Hotel on Dec. 31, 2003 when
Luigi R. Einaudi, who led the so-called "international effort"
to find a political settlement on behalf of the Organization of American
States to Haiti's manufactured crisis, said very pointedly and CLEARLY
not that the problem in Haiti was, as the New York Times article writes
he said "What you had was the constant undermining of the
credibility of the negotiators, by (IRI)" but Luigi R. Einaudi, said
very clearly and audibly that "the problem in Haiti is that the
international community is so screwed up, it is letting Haitians run
Haiti..." This is not second hand info. He said it in front of me. I
wrote it down I was so aghast at the blatant and racist acknowledgement
of why coup d'etat was necessary and, this said, by the chief OAS
negotiator for democratic principles!!!. <br><br>
France, Canada and the US used their considerable political, diplomatic
and economic powers to help orchestrate Haiti's bi-centennial coup d'etat
and occupation, while the New York Times and other major corporate media
ran this international community's spins, - ran their spiel that the
violence in Haiti was a "popular movement" that rose up from
Haitian soil, (not out of IRI and USAID democracy enhancement programs,
the denial of IDB loans and/or from Dominican hotels meetings and
conference with Guy Phillipe in possible attendance.) No, the New York
Times trumpeted, to all and sundry, the Otto Reich/Roger Noriega line,
that President Aristide had lost popular support and backing, was as
corrupt as former dictators and said corruption led to the coup d'etat.
It hardly ever tempered that main lines with the truth of US involvement,
with USAID/Ire’s involvement - its subverting Haiti's judges,
journalists, and so-called civil society with visas, jobs and other
rewards in order to oppose the democratically elected government, or talk
of the training of the armed Haitian soldiers and paramilitaries in the
Dominican Republic, or Ambassador Foley's and Noreiga's role or
culpability in helping to undermine and then remove Haiti's fragile
democratic institutions and elected government.<br><br>
So, why now is IRI being exposed and Einaudi spouting this
"moderate" position on Haiti? Wasn’t Einaudi part of the cabal
helping block an OAS investigation into the coup d'etat, and before that
the Caricom and UN suggestions for investigation? Would Einaudi now care
to push for an OAS investigation into the coup d'etat?<br><br>
In our opinion, today, because of Ennui’s (OAS) "negotiations"
or lack thereof in good faith, because of the Ottawa Initiative, because
of the IRI conferences in the Dominican Republic and their consequences,
over 10,000 Haitians are dead; the US Marines put 70-year old
grandmother, So Ann, in indefinite detentions while US prison cells
floating off Haiti on US ships are reportedly holding and torturing
Haitian-Americans and Haitians who resist Haiti's lost of
sovereignty.........<br><br>
Who will tell this Haitian story? Definitely, not the New York Times. In
fact, based on this Jan. 29, 2006 article, the Times owe Haitians an
apology. For all the untruths, half-truths and misinformation they
published back in 2002-2004, that pushed the momentum for the
bi-centennial coup d'etat and current unparallel chaos and lawlessness
Haitians now must face and transform. <br><br>
Without question, So Ann, who is also suffering with medical problems,
along with Prime Minister Yvon Neptune, Jacques Mathelier and even
children as young as 10, who also were rounded up, like cattle and
warehoused by the US-supported and maintained Baco Raton regime must be
let go also, and immediately.<br><br>
Again HLLN appeals for their release, appeals for an investigation into
the coup d'etat, an apology from the mainstream media for their
misinformation and, herein, reissues our action alert below asking for
the release of all the political prisoners in Haiti. <br><br>
Call, agitate, and let’s not relent until the gates of these new
Duvalierist prisons are forced open. (See: Matters for International
Tribunal and OAS/CARICOM/African Union/U.S. Congress, et al -

*******************************<br>
HLLN ACTION REQUESTED<br><br>
- DEMAND RELEASE OF ALL THE POLITICAL PRISONERS IN HAITI<br><br>
<br>
URGENT, URGENT, URGENT:<br><br>
Given the length of time Prime Minister Yvon Neptune, Interior Minister
Privert, So Ann, Jacques Mathelier have spent in jail for no good cause
that justice<br>
deferred is justice denied.<br><br>
It is equally obvious that concerned Haitians MUST do something beyond
appeal<br>
to the US Congress and State Department so that Latortue will OPEN the
prison<br>
doors to free the Fanmi Lavalas leadership as well as the more than
1000<br>
Lavalas sympathizers he has jailed without charge or trial for close to
2<br>
years now. We stress that the keys to Latortue's jails as well as
Haiti's<br>
liberation rest squarely in the able hands of the Haitian
people.<br><br>
HLLN therefore appeals again, directly to the HAITIANS in Haiti,
actually<br>
given those prison keys to hold, to stop following orders or “doing
their<br>
jobs” and, instead, do the moral and ethical thing: Take positive action
and<br>
open the prison gates. Let's not forget the over 100 Haitian detainees
shot DEAD by Latortue's prison guards on Feb. 19, 2005. <br><br>
Haitians don't want charity. We don't want USAID's sort of
"AID" - like its prisons newly built for Haitian children. If
foreigners would stop meddling in Haiti's affairs, Haitians could develop
Haiti in less than five years! <br><br>
Haitians want and deserve justice. With justice we won't need your
charity or be dependent. <br><br>
<br>
Stop the injustices, sufferings and deaths the political prisoners in
Haiti. Please. All the political prisoners NEED to be released
immediately. It’s time for the law to be brought into
application.<br><br>
Life is too precious to be caged in what de facto authority, Mario
Andresol is calling "preventive detention!!!"<br><br>
<br>
HLLN ACTION REQUESTED FROM OUR INTERNATIONAL NETWORK AND
HAITIANS:<br><br>
We are asking for our Network, especially Haitians and those who
speak<br>
Kreyol, to immediately call the newspapers, television stations and
radio<br>
stations IN HAITI. (See list below)<br><br>
We must let the PEOPLE OF HAITI know that Mario Andresol and Latortue's
"preventive detention" is nothing more than official
kidnapping. <br><br>
Ayisyen, nou pa kapab ap ret chita tann "GWO MOUN" lan etazini
pou ede nou.<br>
Fok Ayisyen leve kampe pou sove lavi pè Jean Juste jodi a
menm!!!<br><br>
Kriminèl ki lage kidnapè Stanley Handal ak asasin Louis Jodel Chamblain
yo pa<br>
p pè touye pè Jean Juste.<br><br>
We must defend our own, ourselves. We are our own liberators. We
urge<br>
Haitians to call the Haitian radio stations in Haiti. Let them know too
many Haitians have already died because of this coup d'etat and return of
the Duvalierists and their morally repugnant elites. <br><br>
At this critical juncture, with Father Jean-Juste's being released, with
the current January 29, 2006 New York Times article showing some of the
truth that Haitians have known all along and been trying to tell the
world, let's built the momentun, take this time to flood the media in
Haiti and in the Diaspora, request the resignation of Latortue and in an
investigation of the role of the US and the IRI in the resurrection of
the Haitian army and this current rule by force, coup d'etat and
dictatorship. Agitate, agitate, agitate and the<br>
gates will open and our liberation will come.<br><br>
Ayisyen, want justice and their sovereignty, not charity, dependency or
UN protectorate. <br><br>
