Organized and promoted by the US, the invasion will be fronted by Kenya, which has pledged to send 1000 police. The Kenyan police force is notorious for its corruption and brutality, including the recent killing of over 30 people in a peaceful demonstration over increased fuel prices. Soon, this police force &#8211; along with other foreign troops &#8211; will be murdering Haitians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The authorization comes despite overwhelming opposition from multiple sectors of Haitian society, who have demanded instead the removal of the current regime of unelected and illegitimate Prime Minister Ariel Henry and the installation of a broadly representative transitional government. While the US characterizes this new intervention as an attempt to stop \u201cgang violence,\u201d the real aim is to prop up the current dictatorship and to fend off the broad-based efforts within Haiti to oust it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is why Henry, the neoliberal puppet of the US and the Core Group of foreign occupiers, has called for foreign troops and why Kenyan soldiers are preparing an invasion. Faced with collapsing infrastructure, the spectre of famine looming over half the population, a new cholera outbreak, and a defunded health care system, Haitians now fear that the militarized national police and their armed proxies, the paramilitary \u201cgangs\u201d who have been terrorizing dissident communities, will be buttressed by more foreign tanks and troops, to further oppress the civilian population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We remember the democratically elected governments of Jean-Bertrand Aristide and the Lavalas movement that were twice overthrown by US-supported coups d\u2019etat. Had it not been for the coups, \u201cToday, many of the beautiful dreams of the Haitian people would have already materialized,\u201d a recent Fanmi Lavalas statement declared. \u201cThe anti-democratic forces have produced a hell on earth: kidnapping, insecurity, misery, hunger, corruption\u201d\u2014a failure that now requires a new occupying army to sustain it.<br><strong><br>THIS IS WHY WE OPPOSE A NEW FOREIGN INVASION AND EXPRESS OUR OUTRAGE AT THE US GOVERNMENT\u2019S POLICY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"403\" height=\"228\" src=\"https:\/\/occupysf.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/image-8.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28952\" srcset=\"https:\/\/occupysf.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/image-8.png 403w, https:\/\/occupysf.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/image-8-300x170.png 300w, https:\/\/occupysf.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/image-8-150x85.png 150w, https:\/\/occupysf.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/image-8-250x141.png 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 403px) 100vw, 403px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Info:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indybay.org\/newsitems\/2023\/10\/03\/18859336.php\">Join Haiti Action Committee to protest yet another US\/UN military invasion of Haiti! : Indybay<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From Adrienne Fong\u00a0 PETITION: tell Congress to stand up for human rights and safety for all people and to build a foreign policy that will actually end this violence.
