2. Congressman Rangel now
Question to Rangel: Colin Powell told them that if Aristide didn't get out he would be killed? :wtf:

Rangel says Powell made it abundantly clear to him that Aristide had to get out.

Rangel says we are just as guilty of the coup as the thugs and criminals " I have never really seen the hatred and arrogance that has been displayed when this President's (Aristide) name comes up and I still don't understand the resignation story"

3. Rangel: Aristide totally double-crossed by US.
Edited on Sun Feb-29-04 07:32 PM by Tinoire

Congressman Foley said Aristide had to choose between leaving on a lear jet or in a body-bag? :wtf:


US is looking BAD in this. B-A-D!

On edit: Found the quote:

RAY SUAREZ: Congressman Foley, is there a future in your view for a Haitian government and some stable governance there that includes President Aristide?



REP. MARK FOLEY: I hope we can find a solution to this. If it includes Mr. Aristide staying, I'm all for it. If it includes he has to leave based on the international partners, so be it. The one thing I want to see happen is for this country to be calm, for us as Americans to join together with the international community to rebuild this beautiful country. They need help. They want our assistance but we can't go it alone.

So my desire is -- and I think Mr. Aristide is getting the message -- he's going to leave by a Lear jet or he'll leave in a body bag. These people are getting close. There's no sense in him risking his life in Port-au-Prince based on the current scenario.

And I can't see an end to the crisis. We can't intervene and jump in the middle of this right now until we get backing from the U.N. I think that would be the next appropriate step. They're meeting now as we're speaking. Hopefully they will come with guidance in the morning or by noon tomorrow. Hopefully that won't be too late to step into the middle of the breach and try and solve this problem.

5. Me too! The US made a request for asylum to a Central African
Republic "on behalf" of Aristide. Central African Republic saying this is NOT how things are done!

6. Yes, The Person Asking For Asylum Has To Do The Asking !!!
But since apparently we have Aristide incommunicado, we are doing the asking for him.

And that leaves the countries willing to take Aristide scratching their heads.

Why don't you put Mr. Aristide ON THE PHONE, Mr. Bush!!!

Asshole!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
