No!

Clinton had arrange for Aristide to receive over $500 million in aid from EU and the US after he propped that brutal dictator up.

Now you know that we just got a trail on the Pakistani Blackmarket of Khans.

There has been nothing reported saying Haiti had any illegal weaponery.

But the timing of our ousting Aristide makes you wonder why we pounced on them now.

Clinton did it 10 years ago. It's small place. The rebels wanted Aristide out. I don't think they have any serious intent or capability to engage the U.S. military.

I would not say a mistake. I was/am concerned regarding the islamic fundamentalist groups located in Haiti.

Yesterday on Fox News this also came up in an interview with Bob Becoulava (sp?) who responded naming a couple of islamic groups which I could not begin to spell and the different kinds of grouops including the various voudou groups. But words that stuck out to me that Bob B. stated were werewolves, rainbow, and serpent, which made me think about treats from Daleel, EOM, and/or other islamic groups or sympathizers.
