Haitian Armed Insurrection is Stained by the Torturers of the Past Thirty Years of Duvalier Dictatorship

Haitian Armed Revolt
Stained by Torturers of the Past
Thirty Years of Duvalier Dictatorship

Haiti Support Group press release - 23 February 2004 - The reappearance of the FRAPH/FAD'H is nothing less than a stinking stain on today's Haiti.

In December 2003, the Workers' Struggle (Batay Ouvriye) organisation succinctly summed up the main protagonists in the struggle for political power in Haiti: "Lavalas and the bourgeois opposition are two rotten buttocks in a torn pair of trousers."

Today, 23 February 2004, as Haitians wake up to the news that the northern city of Cap-Haitien has fallen to a rebel force composed of former Haitian Army (FAD'H) soldiers led by FRAPH leader, Louis Jodel Chamblain, we can perhaps continue with this analogy, and say:
"The reappearance of the FRAPH/FAD'H is nothing less than the excrement that's making a stinking stain on the torn pair of trousers that is Haiti today."
