Bull phucking $hit.
What you posted is NOT 100% correct. It is a chronicle of events misrepresented into a context contrived to support a distorted agenda. Outside of the kind, appreciated and genuine humanitarian aid from the US and around the world at times when Haiti was struck by hurricanes and this recent earthquake, every red bloody cent chronicled on
your list of money spent on the
poor starving people of Haiti was spent to serve the US's interests in the region.
You see what you want to see in Razor's post and filter out the rest, but if you really care to know the truth, you'll learn that after collaborating with the European colonial powers to grind the Haitian economy into the dirt, the prospect of first the Germans and later the Soviet communists coming to their rescue and securing a strategic base near the all important Panama canal, motivated the US to consolidate its influence through occupation, infrastructural development and support of despotic regimes.
Cuba would have suffered the same fate under the embargo, were it not for the Soviet support (they had their own self-serving agenda too) and the the patriotic will of the Cuban people to persevere no matter what. F-ck you and your elitist judgementalism. Clearly you don't care to expand your knowledge beyond the orchestrated pablum you choose to accept as historical fact.
If it weren't for the reality that they need it so badly regardless of the spirit in which it is given, I'd even go as far as to tell you to take your claimed charitable donation to Haiti, roll it up and stuff it up your arse; because people like you give only to serve your own sense of benevolence and self righteousness. The obvious disdain in which you hold the
brutal, murderous and ungrateful people of Haiti gives your "gift of kindness" a bitter taste and in reality is given only to buy yourself the opportunity to crow down at them from a position of self percieved moral and "cultural" superiority.
