'The US completed the coup and forced him out of office'
"I was kidnaped by US Marines and forced to leave Haiti," Jean-Bertrand Aristide said Monday morning. "I did not resign."
"Hey! We just helped him into that plane, honest!" said Colin 'colon' Powell this evening (paraphrasing here). "Have we ever lied to you?"
Fun fact: 'George Bush's foreign policy team came into office intent on toppling Mr Aristide, long reviled by powerful US conservatives such as former senator Jesse Helms who obsessively saw him as another Fidel Castro in the Caribbean.'
