Oil real agenda in Haiti?

[Jonah]

So I read some eye-opening articles (See below) on Haiti's history, their vast resources, the 2004 Bush regime change in Haiti over a democratic elected president (80% of popular vote) and to no surprise Apparently its our military intrusion causing most of the delays in getting aid to the people from the airport too. Busy with other agendas, I'm sure.

Hi Jonah,

Marguerite Laurent of globalresearch did an excellent job in her article.

For a while I have been wondering why the UN is installed in such an apparent insignificant country (it would be cheaper to give each citizen $ 1 million than to keep peacekeepers there). Then I noticed that the French accused the US of invasion. That smells bad.

In 2005 the US declared the Hatian oil fields 'strategic reserves' which means that they don't touch the camps until they really need to do so, which of course leaves the Hatian population in dire straits. What will happen is that when the time comes the US will enter in agreement with the Hatian government and deals will be struck (all politicians being taken very good care for).

There are three oil reserves, under Hatian soil which apparently dwarf even the Venezuelan camps and will create a 'cataclysmic event' in 2010: http://www.haitiwebs.com/forums/gene...ysm_haiti.html
Note that this link is from 2007!

I think Haiti has also gold deposits in the mountains that seperate it from the Dominican Republic: http://www.thestar.com/News/article/238365
Once again, check the date of the link.

It seems that politics is a very ugly game.

Best regards,

Steve

Hi Everyone,

Thinking about it, several countries are pledging vast amounts of money to Haiti. There are only 10 million inhabitants there. My question is why is so much needed?

Just this last pledge would give every man woman and child $7 million each!

Of course this doesn't include NGO' or charities, or private fundraising....
