Only the Truth Will Set Us Free

RECEIVED Wed., March 10, 2004

Dear Editor,
   The same people who lied to us about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq are also lying to us about Aristide. In the eyes of those who are paying attention they have absolutely no credibility and much blood on their filthy hands. One could say that it is very patriotic for the U.S. news media to cooperate so "nicely" with the White House spinmeisters. Truth is we spent more than $2.5 billion on Haiti in the mid-Nineties. Some in power evidently believe that makes it ours, and justifies a CIA engineered "coup d'etat" which will let us get a puppet to replace Aristide. Certain members of the Bush regime cannot stand the fact that Aristide has been working with Castro and Chavez, and that none of them embraces capitalism. Only the truth will set us free from tyrants like those in the White House and the dreadfully lost mainstream press, who use their power to feed the masses the same drivel that the White House shovels out.
