A series of articles has recently come to my attention which describe U.S. involvement in the ousting of Jean-Bertrand Aristide in Haiti. These
articles demonstrate a long-standing relationship between U.S. intelligence agencies and Front pour l'Avancement et le Progres Haiten (FRAPH).

As long suspected, the Central Intelligence Agency created and has advised FRAPH. The link is Emmanuel Constant, a paid CIA employee and informant.
Also, at least some FRAPH “members” were paid by the US-government-funded Centres pour le Developpement et la Sante (CDS), run by Dr Reginald Boulos
and linked to FRAPH and to anti-democratic activities in the past.
As a result of the information -- which has been at the top of news programs and on the front page here as well as in the US -- the CIA and other
government agencies have gone into “damage control” mode, saying Constant worked for them only until “spring” of 1993 (FRAPH was formed in August) and
that the CIA was never “connected” to FRAPH. One of Constant's “handlers”, US Colonel Patrick Collins, a Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) attache in
Haiti from 1989-1992 and who recently returned for the occupation, has reportedly been recalled to Washington for questioning.
Please visit the link provided for the complete story.
Many have long-suspected U.S. intervention in Haiti. Initial reports surrounding the recent Haitian coup involved the unlawful detention and removal
of Aristide from the country by U.S. interests. It is hardly surprising that as the regional hegemon of the Western Hemisphere, the U.S. would not
jump at any opportunity to manipulate the politics of its neighbors.
