T&T: Homicide bombers in Haiti?

Sounds like terrorism is what one Haitian is promising. See for yourself.


A seven-member Council of Sages was also chosen yesterday and immediately began meeting to find a new prime minister to head the country’s transitional government. About 10,000 protesters, a few with pistols tucked into their belts, charged past the embassies and the presidential National Palace, mooning Marines along the way and chanting “Up with Aristide and down with Bush!” It was the first massive protest in favour of Aristide since the ousted president fled to Africa on Sunday, as rebels prepared for a final push on Port-au-Prince and the United States and France pressed the former priest to bow out. US troops watched impassively as the protesters passed. “If it comes to that, we will confront the US Marines,” said demonstrator Pierre Paul, 35. “We will do the same thing that they are doing in Iraq.”
