. According to Waters, the diplomats reportedly told the Haitian =

P IN HAITI The A.N.S.W.E.R. (Act Now to Stop War & End Racism) <B=
R>Coalition condemns the U.S.-led coup carried out today against the =
elected president of Haiti, Jean-Bertrand Aristide, as well as the U.=
S. occupation of that country. U.S. marines have entered Haiti tonigh=
t (February 29). Whether President Aristide was actually kidnappe=
d by U.S. forces, as some sources have reported, or was just pres=
ented with 'an offer he couldn't refuse,' there is no question that W=
ashington played the decisive role in this regime change. The coup in=
Haiti is reminiscent of similar deadly CIA operations in Iran, Guate=
mala, the Congo, Chile and numerous other countries in the last half-=
century. The removal of President Aristide follows more than a <B=
R>century of U.S. intervention in Haiti, and years of destabilization=
designed to bring about the destruction of the Aristide government. =
This negation of Haiti's democracy and sovereignty by the U.S. comes =
as the country is marking its 200th anniversary of independence which=
 followed the heroic revolt against slavery and the creation of t=
he first free Black republic in the Western Hemisphere. Since=
the election of Aristide to a second term in late 2000 with 92% of t=
he vote, Washington has maintained economic sanctions against the poo=
rest country in the Western Hemisphere. Sanctions have had the intend=
ed effect of wearing down the people and popular support for the =
Aristide government by denying food, medicine and other necessities o=
f life to the population. Haiti's poverty today is a direct result of=
centuries of slavery and exploitation for the benefit of corporate i=
nterests in France and the U.S. In addition, the U.S. has ext=
ended financial and political support to the so-called "Democratic Co=
nvergence," the right-wing opposition. According to a story in today'=
s Miami Herald, State Department spokesman Richard Boucher said t=
oday that the U.S. "facilitated" Aristide's departure. Ira Kurzban, a=
n Aristide spokesman in Miami, said he believed "U.S. intelligence ag=
encies were involved in the ouster. ... This was a major operation by=
the intelligence agencies of the U.S." Congressperson Charle=
s Rangel, a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, said that the U=
.S. government is "just as much as part of this coup d'etat as the <B=
R>rebels, looters or anyone else." (ABC's "This Week," Feb. 29, 2004)=
 According to Reuters, U.S. civil rights leader Jesse Jackson=
called Aristide's resignation an "American-assisted coup," and U.S. =
Rep. Maxine Waters, a California Democrat, demanded to know where the=
Haitian leader was being taken one day after he told her "he would <=
BR>rather die than leave." "When I last talked to him (Aristide) yest=
erday, he was not going to leave. He said he would rather die than le=
ave. And then I wake up this morning and I find out that my governmen=
t has landed at his home with Marines. How did they get him to leave?=
What did they do? And where is he?" Waters said in an interview =
with CNN. The Bush Administration has arrogantly and illegally <B=
R>embarked on a policy of "regime change" in Afghanistan, Iraq, Haiti=
and elsewhere. On March 20, the first anniversary of the start of th=
e unprovoked war of aggression against Iraq, people around the world =
will take to the streets in massive numbers. We will demand: Bring <B=
R>the Troops Home Now and End Occupation from Iraq to Palestine and E=
verywhere. We will also be marching to oppose the criminal role of th=
