In Haiti, another day of an engaging primitive dictator,
grand thief and notorious criminal Jean-Bertrand Aristide's considerable violence; also,
of an unsavory dictatorship and extremely retrograde man who has long turned the country
into a personal fief. His usual methods are: beating, burning alive and kidnapping of
democracy and human rights advocates, exclusion of serious candidates, stacking of
election committees with de facto government notorious bandits - October 22, 2003 |

headquarters after they searched it for weapons and found nothing, party members said, and
while supporters of Haitian President Jean-Bertrand Aristide demonstrated in the street,
intimidating would-be anti-government demonstrators and blocking them from holding a
planned march in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, on Wednesday, October 22, 2003. In reaction to
anti-government demonstrations who have been taking to the streets in several cities in
recent weeks, pro-Aristide groups this week declared they would block all anti-Aristide
marchers and, in the words of activist Paul Raymond, 'eat them with our teeth.' (AP
