A U.S. Marine stand guard at US Embassy in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, February 24, 2004. About 50 U.S. Marines arrived in Haiti to protect its embassy. President Jean-Bertrand Aristide appealed for international help to deal with the armed rebellion against him, adding he feared the unrest would lead to a boat people crisis as refugees try to reach Florida. Aristide also said he feared thousands would die should the rebels take on the capital.
