Socio-economic Genocide In Haiti

In January 2010 a devastating earthquake flattened Port-au-prince and the surrounding areas. Some 300,000 individuals perished, and millions injured and left without shelter. The international community responded sympathetically and massively. Yet, the power struggle of imperialism was felt, as the United States imposed itself in Port-au-prince, chasing all others about. Much was promised. Very little accomplished.

 In 2011 a greater disaster struck the country. While the earthquake caused much physical damage that the eye could see, the ascendance of Michel Martelly (Sweetmicky) to power is the worst the little country would see in the sphere of this global society, setting it back and off course for many years to come.

For much of its existence, the mass of the people in Haiti has remained in the state of under development due to the lack of leadership.  The little island nation has recognized mostly despots and dictators that have brutalized the inhabitants and keeping them in much of a bestial nature. Life in Haiti has remained "...short and brutish," as not by recently by an American journalist. It took the poor mass of the country some 29 years to break the yoke of the brutal Duvaliers’ regime in 1986. And, after much thuggish military power play, the mass of the people arrived to choose a man of their own, President Jean Bertrand Aristide in the elections of 1990. A leftist priest of the Theology of Liberation, Aristide was radical against the established powers that had been the cause of the misery of the Haitian mass. The Haitian elites and the imperialists automatically marked the new president for death. Since his militancy days, the Haitians military goons attempted to eliminate him on several occasions. And, in accomplice with the United States, the repressive military gave him a coup-d’etat even before swearing to the presidency. Thereafter, he suffered 2 other coups.

Michel Martelly was at the center of this resistance against the choice of the people. He associated with the Haitian bourgeoisie and the imperialists to curb the progressive movement of the mass. They sabotaged all attempts to the establishment of legitimate government. The assassinated the character of the charismatic priest. The plotted the most absolute resistance branded “tabraz” to not cooperate with his government. They flooded the country with illegalities, drugs, crimes, and arms. They pushed the movement of the people to demise. Of course President Aristide was a radical priest. Likewise he was leading a revolution against a radical dictatorship and military rogues brutalizing the mass of the people for so long. His approach and position were of course extreme. Still, he would have negotiated. However, the imperialist machination would not work with him. They would not give the country and the people a chance. And, with the black colon mindset, the country is drawing near its grave.

The imperialists and the black colons make up the perfect destructive machine of Haiti. Sweetmicky Michel Martelly is a perfect representation of that. Unlike President Aristide who was an educated priest, vested in literature, arts, and humanities; and who advocated a better Haitian national environment for the whole; Michel Martelly is a brut "Sweemicky" with barely a high school education, wasted in drugs and boozes, participating in all illegalities, advocating for the mediocre Haitian bourgeoisie with not national sentiment. The imperialist have found their operator in him for their destructiveness of the Haitian nation. How so?

Society today is a complex, sophisticated, and complicated entity that requires much educational refinement to manage the subtle ruses of its nature. It is a predatory environment, capitalism, survival of the fittest at the uttermost, only the best would survive. Haiti is an ultimate victim, at the very lowest end of the food chain. The imperialists are just swallowing the tiny nation. And, Michel Martelly, without the benefit of higher education, is greasing the way. Imperialism, capitalism at its uttermost.

Depriving of a higher education, the human being is very limited in the art of sophistication. To put it simple, you see small. Imperialism is a machine of sophistication, adorned with doctorates, masters, and bachelors. Those people are almost soulless. And, when they are dealing with an illiterate, they just use him as tissue paper. They know that you don’t know much. You are almost a animal, a child seeking the immediate gratifications. They give you the little things you wish, and they do whatever they want with you.  Sweetmicky Michel Martelly represents just such a character. That’s why he is the greatest disaster of modern Haiti. The imperialists despised President Aristide because of his emphasis on fairness for Haiti and the mass of the people. However, in spite of the so-called democratic principle, the United States has complotted with Michel Martelly to reestablish dictatorship in Haiti in this plain 21st century.

When the illiterate mass acclaimed the presence of Sweetmicky Michel Martelly in the elections at the end of 1990 because of dissatisfaction with Preval, the imperialists knew they had their man to reverse the movement of the people. They threw their money machine behind him and hurled him to power. Having been with their destabilizing trend since the beginning of Aristide, they knew what they had in their hands. Michel Martelly came to erase all traits of democracy, liberty, and any rights of the mass of the people. He has therefore methodically kidnapped the process of election and filled all electoral posts with his partisans. He has run psychological propagandas promoting false hopes and bedeviling all oppositions. And, after three years without election, he has ended up the one despot leader of Haiti, presiding along the American Ambassador, Pamela White, and their chosen 9th grade level prime minister Evens Paul K-plim.

The imperialist machine is cruel at the uttermost. Now, imagine this perfect destructive machine of Haiti in this plain 21st century, the world of globalization and ultimate information, Haiti is led by two literally illiterate "black colons". It is criminal. The United States is criminal for placing two unlearned men on the top of the tiny country. This is genocidal.
