The reason I need one is, I've seen news footage that lends credence to the US-supported overthrow theory. Footage that, viewed carefully, would remind you a lot of the crowds that tore down Saddam's statue.
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (Reuters) - Armed rebels and former militia who helped oust President Jean-Bertrand Aristide roared into Haiti's capital on Monday as jubilant Haitians lined the streets shouting "Liberte" and "Long Live Haiti."
The rebels swooped into Port-au-Prince as a contingent of about 200 U.S. Marines secured the Caribbean country's main airport, unpacked gear and began their latest mission to restore order in the poorest nation in the Americas. Aristide charged from the Central African Republic that he had been kidnapped in an American coup d'etat, an allegation U.S. officials dismissed as baseless nonsense.
"I called this coup d'etat in a modern way, to have modern kidnapping. They were not Haitian forces. They were (unintelligible) and Americans and Haitians together, acting to surround the airport, my house, the palace," Aristide told CNN in a telephone interview, according to a transcript.
"And then, despite of diplomatic conversations we had, despite of all we did in a diplomatic way to prevent them to organize that massacre which would lead to a bloodshed, we had to leave and spent 20 hours in an American plane."
