[news] Human Rights Horrors in Haiti

[Resist!ca]

The report makes note that "Morgue employees from the General Hospital in Port 
au Prince have revealed that 800 bodies on Sunday, March 7, and another 200 
bodies on Sunday, March 28 were dumped and buried in a mass grave at Titanyen. 
These figures are unusual for such a short period of time [100 is normal for a 
month]." The systematic process of demonizing Aristide, staging several coup 
attempts that functioned to make the government look unstable, along with the 
well-orchestrated complicity of the OAS and the rest of the "colonial 
community", laid the groundwork for a full-on denial in the aftermath. It is 
likely that as many people have died since the end of February as died in the 
three year CIA-supported military dictatorship that overthrew Aristide the 
first time, and it is many of the same people carrying out the atrocities.
