[ Um, nooo, all that's being said is that Aristide claims he was removed against his will. Do i see a lot of strategic reason for the U.S. to have done so? No, not really, but he said it, so it deserves some attention. It's not some left wing blogger that's making the claim.
That being said, Aristide is considered by U.S. conservatives to be quite the buddy of U.S. left-liberals, and of course, the evil Bill Clinton supported Aristide by sending troops to Haiti, so i imagine the current administration takes a dim view of him and his policies -- wether it's a dim enough view to forcibly remove the man, i guess we'll see.
Or, given the fickle media environment we've got, maybe we won't. Lord of the Rings won 11 oscars you know! Pay no attention to the monkey in the white house. -k]
