As the people of Venezuela celebrate their victory throwing
off the chocking shackles of repeated U.S. intervention by
reaffirming through true democracy their sovereign right to
determine their own destiny, the people of Haiti try desperately
to cling on to what remains of the first Black Republic. In
this, the 200th year of Haiti's celebrated independence, she
as a nation is in the fight for her life. The February coup
where legitimately elected President Jean Bertrand Aristide
was kidnapped and replaced by a U.S. backed brutal regime
has left the streets of Haiti stained with blood. Rigged trials
and disappearing Aristide supporters have become par for the
course. The world press has remained silent on the daily atrocities
committed on Haiti's people. With us today are Doug Spalding
and Casey Corbett both from the Haiti
Action Committee, they have recently returned from Haiti
and talk about their experience there.
9/11 Coverups and Continuing Confusion - David Ray Griffin
discusses mysteries, inconsistencies and unanswered questions
investigated in his updated
book (Dennis Bernstein)
"David Ray Griffin has done admirable and painstaking
research in reviewing the mysteries surrounding the 9-11
attacks. It is the most persuasive argument I have seen
for further investigation of the Bush administration's relationship
to that historic and troubling event."
-- Howard Zinn
