"A study on cholera risk factors conducted in Haiti found that not treating the drinking water was the main risk component"

"Elimination of the threat of epidemic cholera is still possible for Haiti, and the key ingredient for that will be clean, chlorinated water and latrines." (--Scott F. Dowell, MD, MPH, during presentation to infectious diseases (ID) experts at the 49th Annual Meeting of the Infectious Diseases Society of America Sunday in Boston.   )

*

"If There Is No Struggle, There Is No Progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress. " -- Frederick Douglass, (1857)

The "rational" does not include all that is "the possible." --Ezili Dantà ²

Bill Clinton has more power in Haiti than Haiti's president: The Holocaust Continues -http://bit.ly/oEmeIQ
"The holocaust in Ayiti continues. The insane imperial narrative and custom of honoring rapists, murderers, torturers, degenerate pedophile maniacs, pillagers, plunderers, enslavers and poverty pimps, starting with Christopher Columbus, who set forth the most prolonged genocides and horrific terrors in recorded human history, continues today. Officialdom honors the UN and UN envoys to Haiti as "humanitarians" or "God" bringing security, stability, peace, law, Christian ethos and "Western civilization." Too many have jobs, egos, power and prestige invested in the profit-over-people system to see that the current saviors of Haiti extend mostly the same narcissistic, cultural blindness and denials as the initial "missionaries/humanitarians" brought to Haiti in 1492.

Until the lies that bolsters the current US takeover of Haiti is as recognized as Columbus himself ought to be recognize as a cannibal, terrorist and barbarian, Haiti will continue to be an evidence that must be annihilated. A nation the "discoverers" occupying Ayiti (Haiti) today must try to eradicate, or as they euphemistically put it, "save."

"[T]he Haitian people want the UN occupation to be over, therefore the people can't ask the United Nations to leave without also requesting Bill Clinton, the UN Special Envoy and his UN Deputy Envoy (Paul "the god' Farmer) to also get out of Haiti, take their NGO/UN tutelage, sham elections and their World Bank/IMF death plans with them."--Ezili Dantà ² of HLLN, Oct. 10 2011
