Imperalism in Haiti?
« on: January 22, 2010, 11:53:38 AM »

I am watching a television program about Hait and how to send help, and was unaware of the fact that their was imperalism and an class struggle going on in Haiti it being the poorest country in the western hemisphere.

Well Haiti as a colony was essentially founded by Imperialism..Yet it was one of the earliest colonies (If not the Earliest, I am not sure) to break free from Imperialist rule, that has kept the Imperialists hard on its case.

I've been trying to find the platform of the Arastide opposition to see what it is exactly that they were for and also against. Wikipedia honestly does not do a good job in this regard from what I have seen. A little history on the history of the group that eventually led the overthrow of Aristide can be found at the following link:

The more I read about the overthrow of Aristide the more I am disappointed.

Funny how the "Imperialist" USA is the largest contributor of aid to the country.

At the beginning it was made like an only place where slaves could live freely. I wonder what happened in the meantime.

Funny, sending troops nowadays is considered a "contributor" nowadays? Oh yes they did send money, after the disaster the USA pledged 100 million dollars. Which isn't very impressive when you consider that we spend more money in TWO days in the wars in the Middle East than we gave to Haiti. http://www.marxist.com/haiti-same-old-song-us-ruling-class.htm

What imperialism? As last seen in the last Haitian political turmoil, the U.S. intervene only to stop the violence, and then left. Obviously we needed to finish the job and unite Haiti.
