It is not clear, and one does not know when former president Bill Clinton asks for donation dollars for Haiti earthquake relief and reconstruction whether he's raising monies for the UN country-donor fund as the UN Special Envoy to Haiti and for the IHRC or, for the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund, or for the Clinton Foundation or the Clinton Guistra Sustainable Growth Initiative, to name a few blatant conflicts. What is clear is that the UN has added to Haiti's suffering immeasurably since the earthquake with a cholera epidemic that has killed over 6,435 Haitians and infected nearly 500,000 while simultaneously poisoning Haiti's waterways with no mitigation of its damages to date whatsoever. What is clear is that Bill Clinton, Warren Buffett and his partners brought the same Katrina failure to Haiti with formaldehyde-laced housing.
What is clear is that most of private charity and donor country monies collected in the name of Haiti earthquake victims has not reach Haiti, much less the neediest earthquake victims in Haiti but stayed in the coffers or been used to support the lives of the "humanitarians of Haiti."
What is clear is that US Congress has determined that USAID's earthquake relief for Haiti has been an unmitigated failure. (See also, Major Aid Organizations "Duped Donors" and "Failed Haiti" Group Charges .)
What is clear is that Haiti's people don't even have clean drinking water, most of the earthquake rubble has yet to be removed and over half-a-million Haitians are still homeless over 1-1/2year after the apocalyptic earthquake. What is clear is that the 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. (See Don't Occupy Haiti -- Occupy Wall Street and Ezili Danto on: The Plantation called Haiti: Feudal Pillage Masking as Humanitarian Aid ; Vision of Plantation Haiti -- A White Pearl, Again! ; Video -- CrossTalk on Haiti: Year of Agony ; HLLN video and audio links on Haiti history, accountability, priorities, earthquake and one year after.)
People made homeless by the catastrophic January 2010 earthquake is now 595,811. The Interim Haiti Recovery Commission (IHRC) has approved $254.5 million worth of housing repair and reconstruction projects that will reportedly fix, upgrade or build about 41,759 housing units. Bill Clinton leads the IHRC. "At least 5,400 of the planned new or repaired units are actually slated for Haiti's North Department -- far from the earthquake epicenter and its victims, but right next to the where foreign companies are planning a new industrial park with low-wage assembly factories. The planned industrial park is the result of a 2010 deal between the US State Department, led by Hillary Clinton's Chief of Staff, Cheryl Mills, and South Korea." (See, Haiti: Cholera Down But People Still "Living Like Stray Dogs" ; Martelly-Clinton Seal Deal for Next Wave of Disaster Capitalism in Haiti ; Eduardo Galeano: Haiti, Occupied Country .)
The Clintons, UN and "international community" promoting HOPE Act assembly-line factories as "development" for Haiti know it didn't work thirty years ago and with the current economic crisis these sweatshops as "development and aid" for Haiti are even more of a hoax. But, this lie helps the foreign elites mask the colonization of Haiti for the wealthy, mask Haiti's endless containment-in-poverty, forced assimilation, ethnic cleansing and the real Western corporate goal of turning Haiti into a brothel, plantation and tourist haven for rich Northern US/Euros still hankering for "old Dixie" complete with African servants and syncophants.
"[E]ven at the height of its operation in the mid 1980s, the assembly-line industry never employed more than 7 percent of Haitian workers and did not contribute significantly to reducing the underestimated 38 percent unemployment rate of the active urban labour force." (Prof. Alex Dupuy quoted at Martelly-Clinton Seal Deal for Next Wave of Disaster Capitalism in Haiti .)
The world's oligarchy intent on destroying what's left of Haiti's agriculture, through promoting urban sweatshops, preventing Haiti from investing in its domestic agriculture, culture/education, health care, infrastructure is also steadily gobbling up Haitian lands in the name of NGO aid and investing in Haiti. That's why homeless quake victims get evicted in the hurricane season while the Bush-Clinton fund builds a new $29 million tourist hotel for Westerners with donation dollars intended to help quake victims.
The US cost Haiti approximately 850,000 agricultural jobs with Clinton/Bush "free trade" policy and promises of hundreds of thousands of assembly plant jobs that never came to past, but pushed Haiti farmers off their rural lands. Yet, both Mrs. Clinton and USAID believe there"s been progress: "One industrial park has been created to create 20,000 jobs." US False Benevolence in Haiti. See also, Rebuilding Haiti -- The Sweatshop Hoax; Haiti and the Aid Racket ; Haiti and the international aid scam ; HLLN Links on US Free trade Fraud promoting famine in Haiti .)
Not only is Bill Clinton's apology for bringing famine to Haiti with his former Administration's free trade deals that subsidized rich Arkansa farmers at the expense Haiti food sovereignty as meaningless as his apology for his administration's failures during the Rwanda genocide but the hypocrisy of Hillary Clinton's State Department continuing the same policies Bill Clinton apologized for is dishonorable to criminal. Especially when it's also Hillary Clinton's USAID that brought Monsanto hybrid seed to Haiti as earthquake relief! Colonization of Haiti's food and seeds is not earthquake relief; The Poverty Pimps Masturbating on Black Pain: Monsanto joins the pack .)
Of course, homeless quake victims get evicted in the hurricane season while the Bush-Clinton fund builds a new $29 million shelter for Westerners with donation dollars to help quake victims:
They're open for business on top of our decomposed dead bodies, on top of our crushed bones, on top of our intense grief.
Open for business on top of our ground water contaminated by their diseased feces. (Excerpted from : I Pay this Price for You.)
And, just when you think the Clintons couldn't get any more grotesque in Haiti, the Clinton Global Initiatives announces a Haiti insurance scheme preying on imported fear and insecurity.
Instead of the Clinton Foundation making an investment in clean portable water and sanitation plants, it invest but cholera insurance to sell to Haiti's oppressed women. A cholera that the UN imported into Haiti. A UN that Bill Clinton and Paul Farmer market and brand to the world as "giving Haiti security, human rights and good governance." But just as Farmer knows HIV was imported and helped make him the "god doctor" whose credentials are used to bring more suffering to Haiti for the rich vampires to feed on. So does he, the UN, the World Bank, NGOs and Bill and Hillary Clinton know and use the cholera epidemic as a business opportunity. This time to increase US/Euro and the world oligarchy's insurance market share in Haiti. Our death means dollars to the fake humanitarians living like mini monarchs on Haiti's endless oppression, exploitation and containment-in-poverty. Haiti suffering is a business opportunity for those renting homes from the Haiti Oligarchy that's moved to Florida, Montreal and Paris while collecting high rents from the NGOs who fundraised on our people's death and misery. (See Note 8.)
The UN claims clean water and sanitation is a human right. But the UN destroyed Haiti's water systems with cholera. The world's wealthiest -- Bill Clinton/Warren Buffet, Swiss Re, et al" -- expect impoverished Haitians to pay for cholera insurance, while promoting themselves as humanitarians. (See, Zili Dlo -- Clean water is health, life and the simple solution to cholera-ravaged Haiti ; Swiss Re and its Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) partners have introduced a new programme to provide Haiti's female entrepreneurs with rapid insurance payments for income lost by their micro-businesses as a result of cholera ; MiCRO to develop Cholera Microinsurance Policy ; With Nothing to Stabilize, MINUSTAH Soldiers Engage in Inappropriate Relationships and Pollute the Environment ; Swiss Re, the insurance giant, said Thursday that it was turning to Berkshire Hathaway, Warren Buffett's holding company, for a $2.6million capital infusion; I pay this price for you: Haiti is open for business and Avatar Haiti.)
