The most recent events seem to have followed a pattern laid down many times before by the US government. That is, funneling arms or money or whatever to a rebel group in order to overthrow a democratically-elected president. Just ask half the countries in South and Central America. Not that Aristide was some great guy, I'm sure, but it sorta seems against general US principles to support an armed uprising against a democracy, don't you think? Even more. posted by chris at 7:21 PM ------------------ |
