</font><font size=4>HAITI ACTION COMMITTEE CALLS FOR EMERGENCY
DEMONSTRATION<br>
</font><font size=3> <br>
</font><font size=4>HAITI - AID THOSE WHO NEED IT MOST AND DO IT
NOW!<br>
</font><font size=3>PROTEST MONDAY, JANUARY 25 5PM<br>
POWELL AND MARKET, SAN FRANCISCO<br>
<br>
</font><font size=4>Respect Haiti! <br>
Aid, Not Troops! Life, Not Death, for Haiti!<br>
</font><font size=3> <br>
As the death count rises in Haiti, the effects of a catastrophic natural
disaster are compounded - as in Hurricane Katrina - by political failure,
by the consequence of generations of U.S. intervention in Haiti.
Six years after it forced out the democratic Aristide government, and
replaced it with a brutal coup regime, the U.S. is advancing a massive
military operation in Haiti. While thousands of American troops
amass in Port-au-Prince, thousands of Haitians are dying from lack of
water and medicine, starving while food supplies sit on the airport
tarmac.<br>
<br>
This is a time for aid, not charity; for solidarity, not a calculated
U.S. military take-over. Demand accountability of the US government and
the United Nations. Demand respect for the resiliency and courage of the
Haitian people, and the return President Jean-Bertrand Aristide to his
homeland, as the vast majority of Haiti's people demand. <br>
<br>
</font><font size=4>PRIORITIZE MEDICAL AND HUMANITARIAN RELIEF, NOT
MILITARY OCCUPATION.</font><font size=3> <br>
<ul>
<li>Get the people of Port-au-Prince clean water, food, and medical
treatment now
<li>Allow President Aristide to return to Haiti from forced exile in
South Africa.
<li>Respect human rights. Do not criminalize a traumatized population
that needs aid!</font>
</ul><font size=4>SPREAD THE WORD. LET'S MAKE THIS INTERNATIONAL<br>
