Indeed a very «simple» opinion.
Have you ever asked yourself where the money that is being «begged for» comes from?
Who worked to produce it? How come the World Bank that is managing it is not really controlled by representatives of the «World» that are elected democratically? How come Haiti is paying interest on loans it has never received?
So all you can see is the fact that the U.S. (was forced to) return Aristide to his homeland. But you don't remember how the story started? You don't remember the tousands of brothers and sisters dying on the high seas? You don't remember Randall Robinson's hunger strike? You don't remeber the thousands of demonstrators in the streets of Miami, New-York, Wshington? You don't remeber the couageous articles of The Nation, in which the link between the CIA and FRAPH was finally exposed. You only remember the «white washed» reports of CNN.
Black man, it is with «simple opinions» like yours that the criminal states that have stolen 300 years of free labour from our parents, raped and murdered them, stole their natural resources, robed us of our inheritance...our collective right to prosperity etc... end up making you beleive that You owe them...not the other way around.
Yes, a few of us are doing well. We have jobs because we worked twice as hard as their children in every area of life but...what about the collective wellbeing. Do you even understand that concept? Or are you too happy with the personal «bling bling» you have been allowed to collect to see the bigger picture.
In what banks do you think Duvalier, Cambronne and other house niggers placed the money they received from their colonial masters?
Read your history my friend. Read about the National City Bank of New-York and the bounties it collected from Haiti between 1915 to 1947.
It is not a question of «aba blan». The problem one has with these thieves is not about colour. This is their disease not ours. Our problem with them is the fact they are mischievous thieves who continue to rob our people blind...while pretending to be «missionaries coming to rescue us from ourselves» and, somehow, they always find Uncle Toms among us to defend their interest.
Lavalas and Convergence will come to pass. So will this whole generation. But, the question is: What will it leave for the Black children of Haiti? The same question the right honourable Jean Jacques Dessalines asked nearly 200 years ago.
Notice: The question is not what crumbs will Care International, Christian Children Fund, Vision Mondiale, USAID, Cooperation Francaise ....will rob on our children's faces....But WHAT WILL WE (Haitians) LEAVE TO OUR CHILDREN?
Enough with the «simple» opinions, let's start asking the real questions...
