Ahora sí, a Haití no lo para nadie

Como bromeaba mi viejo, se levantará de sus cenizas como el Gato Félix.

Retornó "Baby Doc" Duvalier a Haití, para encauzar al país a su destino de grandeza bajo el modelo de acumulación de la matriz torturativa.

PORT AU PRINCE — Deposed dictator Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier made a startling return to Haiti late Sunday, ending almost 25 years of exile and throwing yet another wild card into the turbulent politics of this devastated country, which is trying to recover from a killer earthquake, a cholera epidemic and violently contested elections. [...]

It isn't known what the future holds for Mr. Duvalier. In 2007, President René Préval told reporters that Mr. Duvalier could return to Haiti, but he would have to face charges for embezzling millions of dollars and the murder of many Haitians. But there are no known outstanding warrants for his arrest.

During their 29-year rule, first Mr. Duvalier's father, Francois "Papa Doc" Duvalier, and then Mr. Duvalier terrorized Haiti, using a paramilitary group called the Ton Ton Macoutes to kill and torture opponents. Haitians danced on the street after Mr. Duvalier was forced out of office with his wife in 1986. Both men looted millions from the national treasury of the Western Hemisphere's poorest country. [...]

Mr. Duvalier has been living quietly in France since his ouster, which was followed by two decades of political instability, military coups and two U.S. interventions.


P.D.: Francia, el Paraguay de Europa, cuidando de los suyos.

  1. Recién me entero leyendo las noticias.
    Me parece que estas sociedades (la argenta incluída) necesita caer a lo mas hondo, ya sea política y económicamente, para así encarar un proyecto serio de reconstrucción nacional (je) más por necesidad que por convicción.
    Todos los derechos sin ninguna obligación. Que quieren que les diga, buscamos nuestro destino de miseria hasta de forma inconsciente.
