Haitian Aid being withheld

Date:   1/19/2010 11:09:27 AM ( 14 y ago)

It is just getting to be so routine, so completely predictable, that this would happen. Without even reading the press reports or listening to the news, we could have predicted how things would happen after the earthquake.

What I was watching for was that the US would take over the operations, and then there would be fake press reports about the "looting and violence", and then the US troops would say they cannot bring the water and food in "because of the violence", unless they have adequate protection during the distribution of the food and water.

This morning, the American news were saying "the troops cannot bring the food and water to the people who need it because the troops don't have enough protection".

Three days ago, some "air drops" were done, where parachutes were used to drop the supplies of food and water, but those were quickly stopped "because of the violence".

NONE OF THAT VIOLENCE HAS HAPPENED!!! The TV news has managed to find a couple of incidents where Haitians were scrambling to get at a food drop, but there was no real violence, just a little pushing and shoving.

There is no real threat to the troops in handing out supplies of food and water. Even if there IS, the US troops are big boys and the starving thirsty Haitians are NOT going to kill them to get at the supplies they are handing out. That is just ridiculous!!

BOGUS BOGUS BOGUS

The real plan is to make the Haitians so damned desperate that eventually some of them will get angry and prove the media fear-mongers to be right.

There is likely a BIGGER PLAN afoot too, such as described by this article:

"Lootin' and Burnin'" -
http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=17044


That article describes how the Haitian sweatshops make PJs for WalMart and other American corporations. Those US corporations are making outrageous profits compared to the wages paid to the Haitian workers. They want to keep that gig going... and this disaster will help them do it as described in Naomi Klein's "Disaster Capitalism" treatise.

PS -

Aside from the aid supply issue, there is the rescue operation for people trapped in the fallen buildings. Where white people are trapped there are rescue operations, but for the poorest neighborhoods with the most earthquake damage there is still NOTHING going on. No rescue teams, no equipment, no media.
