#12 Not to defend or excuse the corruption of Mssr. Aristide, nor diminish what Haitians have endured, but history may find ol' Jeannie to be a decent stepping-stone from where they been to where they goin’. If the French and UN don’t fuck it up, Haiti may actually have a chance of living up to it’s potential as a tropical paradise, what with the USA not in the mood for piss ant problems in the neighborhood, what with the War on Terrorists and all. Yo, Jeannie, shut up and retire still breathing. |

#11 I'm confused(again/yet) "...alleging that French and U.S. authorities had kidnapped the Haitian president, once they received full authorization from Aristide." This seems to say that Aristide gave full authorization for the kidnapping. "...said Brian Concannon, an attorney representing Aristide's lawyer..." An attorny representing his lawyer. Ah... the plot thickens and the game is afoot. |

#10 We should heavily dope Aristide, have him convert to Islam without his knowledge, then "encourage" him to go back to his Catholic roots. Let the games begin... |

#9 If somebody sues you, don't you get some kind of right of discovery which is basically the right to fishing expedition through all their crap? Super Hose, absolutely! This should be fun. |

#8 I agree with #6, this asshole was saved rather than kidnapped as the rebels were already in the capital. This shud tell America to leave the people alone and not interfere and act as world policeman, things back fire 90% of the time. |

#6 OK - let's "kidnap" him again and take him back home. In 10 minutes his head will be stuck on a post. |

#5 "I'm not reassured in the fact that he's in an area where it's difficult to communicate with the outside world." My word! That might mean he can't have instant access to the mainstream media and certain constantly offended activists. |

#4 If somebody sues you, don't you get some kind of right of discovery which is basically the right to fishing expedition through all their crap? I wouldn't think he would want us looking closely at his financial records. |
