Rappel du premier message :

This is the type of outrageous arrogance that results from propping up Tarzan-like figures in Haiti. Now, Sean Penn is telling Haitians to leave Baby Doc alone, comparing the brutal U.S-backed, protected and funded criminal to America's Don King.

"The key to mobilizing international support is to mobilize domestic support, or at least neutralize domestic opposition...In mobilizing political support for intervention for human protection purposes, as for anything else, a great deal comes down to the leadership of key individuals and organizations. Someone, somewhere has to pick up the case and run with it. Political leaders are crucial in this respect, but they are not the only actors: they are, for the most part, acutely responsive to the demands and pressures placed upon them by their various political constituencies, and the domestic media, and they are much influenced by what is put to them by their own bureaucracies. NGOs have a crucial and ever increasing role, in turn, in contributing information, arguments and energy to influencing the decision-making process, addressing themselves both directly to policy makers and indirectly to those who, in turn, influence them...


...every country's national interest in being, and being seen to be, a good international citizen. There is much direct reciprocal benefit to be gained in an interdependent, globalized world where nobody can solve all their own problems: my country’s assistance for you today in solving your neighbourhood refugee and terrorism problem, might reasonably lead you to be more willing to help solve my environmental or drugs problem tomorrow. The interest in being seen to be a good international citizen is simply the reputational benefit that a country can win for itself, over time, by being regularly willing to pitch into international tasks for motives that appear to be relatively selfless.

Kidonk, pa gen aza nan bagay yo tande! Moun ki planifye lavi yo ak lavni yo plizyè deseni alavans pa jwe. Se noumenm k ap ranse toujou nan rèv tonton nwèl "la fraternité humaine", tan jodi pa tan lontan, e ke, la frankophonie internationale, leds droits de l'homme.....moun yo se ENTERÈ yo y ap defann by any means necessary. Si nou pa reveye nou, nou chire!

When they find a leader who protects their socio-economic interest, they support him politically and help him find sources of funds - not big money to build national infrastructure - just enough to get an entourage rich, control the masses and maintain the status quo.





President Michel "Sweet Mickey" Martelly and his wife greet former Haitian dictator Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier at a ceremony to commemorate the earthquake that struck Haiti two years ago. Duvalier is under orders not to leave the capital of Port au Prince before he stands trial for crimes against humanity including political murder and torture. (note: Bill Clinton is in background with jaw agape as Martelly greets Duvalier).

Miki is 'touskilfo' because he started out already compromised and vulnerable to blackmail. He is 100% dependable. That's the kind of 'leader' the empires like to have to deal with.

2 years after goudougoudou, billions of dollars collected in the name of Haiti are nowhere to be found. Over 7000 people killed by the U.N. brought cholera bacterium....500,000 living in the streets under makeshift tents....and every week, the president and a large entourage goes 'wine and cheesing' in private jet.....

How long can the smokescreen work its magic?

Who selected Martelly as president?

Lest we already forget....

"We've made it very clear we support the OAS recommendations and we would like to see those those acted on." - Hillary Clinton

Citation:

The “international community” sent an electoral commission from the Organization of American States to “recount the votes.” A report by the Center for Economic and Policy Research [2] states: “The amount of votes not counted or counted wrong in this election is huge … Based on the numbers of irregularities, it is impossible to determine who should advance to a second round.” Nevertheless, the OAS decided the “run-off” should be between Manigat and Martelly, in spite of several violations of Haitian law, and Hillary Clinton personally went to Haiti to enforce the message.

Further evidence that Sean Penn is not merely "misinformed". He is well aware of the class dynamics in Haiti and has chosen his focus and modus operandi quite carefully and deliberately.

Sean Penn, in his own words

http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/sean-penn-responds-to-rolling-stone-s-haiti-story-20110930

Citation:

An additional distortion in the Rolling Stone article is Reitman’s recounting of a meeting between myself and community leaders within an IDP camp tent. In Ms. Reitman’s article I am quoted saying to a group of Haitian community leaders, during the buildup to relocation, that “I don’t give a fuck about the rich guys who own this club.” This was a reference to the owners of the land upon which these IDPs had established their ad hoc encampment with tents made originally from salvaged bed sheets in the immediate aftermath of the earthquake, not, as reported in Rolling Stone, from plastic sheeting (the rain-resistant sheeting she observed was only later distributed by NGOs and U.N. organizations). In the context of the article I had said it, and meant it just as stated. In context of reality and of the broader explanation I gave Ms. Reitman and her fact checker, I explained that I had indeed said those words knowing I was speaking to a group of pro-Aristide, anti-foreign “community leaders” whom, I had been informed in advance, believed that any whites operating in the camp within which they lived were doing so on behalf of the “rich white people who own the club,” which in Haiti has a resonating history of class division, forced evictions and brutality. I used those words about the landowners only in knowing I would need to court open minds, and had to make the separation clear between their assumptions about these landowners (which, had they been justified, indeed my words would have expressed exactly the position I and J/P HRO would have taken) and our own position as a humanitarian operation, presenting them with an opportunity to make a sacrifice for the greater good of the community. I will say here on behalf of those community leaders that they did ultimately make the choice to relocate and they did so with a proud and touching sense of social contribution. But it also has to be said that I am personally unaware of any other earthquake infringed upon landowners, whether white, black, rich or poor, who have been as consistently supportive of an IDP population and their NGO partners. William Evans, Coty Reinbold and the rest of the board of the Pétionville Club have been extraordinarily supportive. So, to have left my statement as “I don’t give a fuck about the rich guys who own this club” and to do it on page one of her article without further explanation, was an indication of the pages to come and the damaging distortion whereby ongoing relationships and vital collaborations are compromised.

In other words, Sean Penn feels no remorse about taking a paternalistic stance toward "a group of Haitian community leaders" - lying to them about his close relationship with Haiti's rich landowners.

See how one of these dudes jumped at Danny Glover a few months ago.




My take on this is that Sean Penn is not at all naive. This guy understands "white privilege" and how it plays out in various forms in Haiti. He also has some natural affinities with the folks living up the hill. It is not just a matter of race and color but also lifestyle. As a former drug addict Penn would necessarily empathize with Michel Martelly, Duvalier and their entourage. The "ghetto of millionaires" living up in Montagne Noire also share a number of social habits with our Hollywood friends that make it much easier for them to connect with each other - without the need for translation.

Also, there is something profoundly insulting in Penn's choice to refer to his perception that "Black America" is reluctant to condemn Don King for his abuses, as a means to explain Duvalier's outrageous behaviour in Haiti.

There is no lack of criminals in the U.S.A.'s history whose crimes could be compared to those of which Duvalier stands accused of in Haiti. Penn could have used examples of mass murderers such as Jim Jones or Timothy McVey but he wanted to be provocative and insulting. He knew he was speaking to Tavis Smiley and a large portion of the African-American TV audience.

So, Penn's paternalism, arrogance and his support for white privilege as enjoyed by his friends in Montagne Noire, Haiti, are not at all accidental in my view. Now, that he is officially named Ambassador of Haiti, we shall see how well and how consistently he shall represent and defend the interests of Haiti vs those of his friends.
