Haiti Solidarity Ireland invite you to join them in calling for the removal of American and other international occupation troops from Haiti with a
picket of the American embassy in Dublin on February 25 from 6-7pm.

The protest will also call for the right of ordinary Haitians to control the reconstruction of their country, against the interventions of imperial
powers and the brutal repression of a colluding domestic political and business elite.

The picket is part of an international day of action which will see solidarity actions take place in over a hundred cities around the world. It has been
called by a coalition of Haitian grassroots organisations and trade unions, including Fanmi Lavalas, the country's most popular political party, which has been illegalised and persecuted by the Haitian government.

------------------------------

Haiti Solidarity Ireland is a broad-based coalition to support Haitians in their struggle against foreign intervention and for an inclusive, democratic
and equitable Haiti. We are organised on the principles of international solidarity and anti-imperialism and have branches in Cork and Dublin.

We call for the immediate departure of international troops from Haiti, and for aid and reconstruction efforts to be controlled by Haitians themselves through their unions and community organisations.

..but then the new frontier of the Wild East is sorta preoccupying the emperor at the minute. And didn't ye install a puppy on the isthmus just recently.

May be walking a bit softer, but the big stick is still swung. The Munroe Doctrine is not trumpeted, but that does not subtract from the fact it has been expanded even beyond Munroe's wildest and wettest dreams.

"They are sons of bitches but they are OUR sons of bitches"

No more.

the buffalo-soldier wont be wanting bad examples being set by the brudders. Too close to the 'hood.

I'd imagine he'd get a rescue-chopper down as quick as any lynch-mob would draw a drone.
