Subject: [ezilidanto] Father Jean Juste released, transfered to Miami Hospital |Demand New York Times apology to Haitians for disseminating untruth coining coup d'etat as a "popular uprising" | With NY Times' "Democracy Undone" renew demands for Congressional investigation into US role in Haiti's current lawlessness Date: Sun, 29 Jan 2006 12:15:54 -0800 (PST) From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Father Jean Juste Has been Released 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. 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. 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. Men Anpil Chay Pa lou! 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. 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."https://lists.riseup.net/www/arc/ezilidanto/2006-01/msg00002.html ) 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 inter national 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. 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. 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. 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. (https://lists.riseup.net/www/arc/ezilidanto/2006-01/msg00002.html ) 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. 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? 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!!!. 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 i n 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. 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? 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......... 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. 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. 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. Call, agitate, and let s not relent until the gates of these new Duvalierist prisons are forced open.

Founder and Chair, Haitian Lawyers Leadership Network (Dedicated to protecting the human, civil and cultural rights of Haitians, living at home and abroad) January 29, 2006 ******************************* HLLN ACTION REQUESTED - DEMAND RELEASE OF ALL THE POLITICAL PRISONERS IN HAITI URGENT, URGENT, URGENT: 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 deferred is justice denied. It is equally obvious that concerned Haitians MUST do something beyond appeal to the US Congress and State Department so that Latortue will OPEN the prison doors to free the Fanmi Lavalas leadership as well as the more than 1000 Lavalas sympathizers he has jailed without charge or trial for close to 2 years now. We stress that the keys to Latortue's jails as well as Haiti's liberation rest squarely in the able hands of the Haitian people. HLLN therefore appeals again, directly to the HAITIANS in Haiti, actually given those prison keys to hold, to stop following orders or doing their jobs and, instead, do the moral and ethical thing: Take positive action and open the prison gates. Let's not forget the over 100 Haitian detainees shot DEAD by Latortue's prison guards on Feb. 19, 2005. 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! Haitians want and deserve justice. With justice we won't need your charity or be dependent. 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. Life is too precious to be caged in what de facto authority, Mario Andresol is calling "preventive detention!!!" HLLN ACTION REQUESTED FROM OUR INTERNATIONAL NETWORK AND HAITIANS: We are asking for our Network, especially Haitians and those who speak Kreyol, to immediately call the newspapers, television stations and radio stations IN HAITI. (See list below) We must let the PEOPLE OF HAITI know that Mario Andresol and Latortue's "preventive detention" is nothing more than official kidnapping. Ayisyen, nou pa kapab ap ret chita tann "GWO MOUN" lan etazini pou ede nou. Fok Ayisyen leve kampe pou sove lavi pè Jean Juste jodi a menm!!! Kriminèl ki lage kidnapè Stanley Handal ak asasin Louis Jodel Chamblain yo pa p pè touye pè Jean Juste. We must defend our own, ourselves. We are our own liberators. We urge 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. 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 gates will open and our liberation will come. Ayisyen, want justice and their sovereignty, not charity, dependency or UN protectorate. * Call, call, call and email the Haitian Radio and TV Stations IN HAITI: Radio Solidarite (011 509) 245 5055, 245 5055, 245 5836) E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Radio Ginen, 246 2867 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] Melodie FM 221 8568 or 221- 8596 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Radio Tropic FM (011 509) 244 0571 Email: Radio National D Haiti - 223 - 5712, 0r 223-6264 email: ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Radio Galaxie, 223-9942 or 223-9943 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Radio Vision 2000 - 245-4914 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] , and [EMAIL PROTECTED] Radio Kiskeya 244-6605 or 244- 6607 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Radio Metropole, 246 2626 or 246-5335 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Radio Caraibe FM 223-0644 or 223-6827 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Radio Megastar - Email: Radio Antilles - 408 - 9415, 550 - 7313 Email: Radio Balade FM 011-509-268-6607 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.radiobalade.com ****************** Ask the ones you reach for the numbers for the other stations in Haiti.
