 Demand
Release of all Political Prisoners in Haiti
**********************************************
DEMAND RELEASE OF ALL THE POLITICAL PRISONERS
IN HAITI
Ayisyen, Leve Kampe
URGENT, URGENT, URGENT:
It's obvious to us, given the length of time Prime Minister Yvon
Neptune,
So Ann, Jacques Mathelier and thousands of other innocent Haitians
have spent
in jail, for no good cause, that justice deferred is justice denied.
It is equally obvious that concerned Haitians MUST do something
beyond
appealing to our very oppressors and "their local African
quislings" for help
to open the prison doors and free the Fanmi Lavalas leadership
as well as the
more than 4000 suspected Lavalas sympathizers jailed, without
charge or trial,
for more than to 2 years now. We stress that the keys to Latortue's
jails as
well as Haiti's liberation rest squarely in the able hands of
the Haitian people.
HLLN therefore appeals again, directly to the HAITIANS in Haiti,
actually
given those prison keys to hold, to stop following orders or “doing
their
jobs” and, instead, do the righteous, moral and ethical
thing: Take positive
action and OPEN THE PRISON GATES. Stop the death of Yvon Neptune
and all the
political prisoners in Haiti. Please. All the political prisoners
NEED to be
released immediately. It’s time for the law to be brought
into application.
Yvon Neptune, So Ann, Jacques Mathelier, all the prisoners lives
are in
serious, serious and immediate danger.
HLLN ACTION REQUESTED FROM OUR INTERNATIONAL
NETWORK AND HAITIANS:
We are asking for our Network, especially Haitians and those who
speak
Kreyol, to immediately call the newspapers, television stations
and radio
stations IN HAITI. (See list below)
The PEOPLE OF HAITI abroad and at home, must let the world know,
as loudly as
they expressed their determination to have the Feb. 7, 2006 vote
be counted,
that innocent Haitians are dying senseless, pointlessly and to
apathetic
reception from our "saviors", for no good reason whatsoever,
in the
International's (Bartholomew De La Casas') new "Aristide-free"
Haiti.
Ayisyen, nou pa kapab ap ret chita tann "GWO MOUN" lan
etazini, oubyen lòt
kote, pou ede nou. Fok Ayisyen leve kampe pou sove lavi tout prizonye
politik
yo jodi a menm!!!
Kriminèl ki lage kidnapè Stanley Handal ak asasin
Louis Jodel Chamblain yo pa
p pè touye pè Yvon Neptune e Sò Ann.
We must defend our own, ourselves. We are our own liberators.
HLLN urges
Haitians to call the Haitian radio stations in Haiti. Let them
know that too
many Haitians have died these last two Boca Raton-years in Haiti's
prison
without their guilt or innocence ever having been litigated.
At this critical juncture, even as I write this next line, a Haitian
child,
mother, father, faces imminent death in the within the International's
supervised prisons in Haiti. We ask the Haitian people to flood
the media in
Haiti and in the Diaspora. Take to the streets la sosyete. Agitate,
agitate,
agitate and the gates will open and our liberation will come.
The suffering peoples of Haiti deserve our help more, our actions
MORE.
Ayisyen, stand up for what's right, please. Remember Boukman's
Prayer and
make a phone call, write a letter, make your protest know peacefully
and with
determination.
"Speak your righteous message not to these “long rotted
ash” but address your
message, my people, to the living and look only to Dessaline’s
descendants
worldwide. His legacy is liberty. Speak to liberty lovers. Empower
the
world’s lovers of liberty........."

Boukman's Prayer
The God who created the earth, who created the sun that gives us light.
The God who holds up the ocean, who makes the thunder roar. Our God
who has ears to hear. You who are hidden in the clouds, who watch us from
where you are. You see all that the Whites have made us suffer. The White
man's God asks him to commit crimes. But the God within us wants us to do good. Our God who is so good, so just, orders us to avenge our wrongs. It's our God who will direct our arms and bring us victory. It's our God who will assist us. We all should throw away the image of the white man's God who is so pitiless. Listen to the voice for liberty that sings in all our hearts.
Boukman's Prayer at the Bwa Kayiman
Vodun ceremony, the call to action that launched the Haitian Revolution,
on August 14, 1791.

Djab
la di l ap manje m, se pa vre: Boukman's Prayer
Haitian spiritual:
"Ogou oooo, wa dèzanj, djab la di la manje mwen
se pa vre.
Se pa vre Timoun yo, se pa vre. Sa se blag Timoun yo, sa se jwet.
Gen Bon Dye, geyen lè sen yo. Djab la di l ap manje nou,
se pa vre....."
Prayer: Boukman’s Prayer
Boukman's Prayer shows basic Haitian wisdom: we are what we stand
for,
what we fight for, what the Ancestors fought for. Boukman’s
Prayer not
only outlines the sacred wisdom of Vodun, that we are our actions
not words.
But sets the tone for why Haitians choose Africa over Europe in
Haiti; why
Haitians chose Africa over Europe's philosophy of God.
Vodun confronted the European colonizers with a philosophy infinitely
more
humanistic than theirs: rejecting slavery as immoral and evil,
it chose freedom
for all human beings, morality, righteousness, social cohesion
and co-existence
as the highest good on the planet. This is reflected in many ways,
but no better
than in Boukman's prayer.
Boukman's
Prayer
The God who created the
earth, who created the sun that gives us light.
The God who holds up the ocean, who makes the thunder roar. Our
God
who has ears to hear. You who are hidden in the clouds, who watch
us from
where you are. You see all that the White has made us suffer.
The White
man's god asks him to commit crimes. But the God within us wants
to do good.
Our God, who is so good, so just, orders us to avenge our wrongs.
It's our good God
who will direct our arms and bring us victory. It's our good God
who will assist us.
We all should throw away the image of the white man's god who
is so pitiless.
Listen to the voice for liberty that sings in all our hearts.
-- Boukman's Prayer at the Bwa
Kayiman Vodun ceremony, the August 14, 1791 call to action that
launched the Haitian Revolution, which started on August 22, 1791.

On Working White Liberals by Maya Angelou
I don't ask the Foreign Legion
Or anyone to win my freedom
Or to fight my battle better than I can,
Though there's one thing that I cry for
I believe enough to die for
That is every man's responsibility to man.
I'm afraid they'll have to prove first
That they'll watch the Black man move first
Then follow him with faith to kingdom come.
This rocky road is not paved for us
So, I'll believe in Liberal's aid for us
When I see a white man load a Black man's gun.

HLLN'S MEDIA Campaign to FREE the political prisoners
in Haiti
******************************
Join HLLN'S
MEDIA Campaign to expose the corrupt role of the UN,
US, Canada,
OAS, France, their false "humanitarian aid", to expose
this international community's (the "International Community")
culpable role in keeping in office, over the OBJECTIONS of the
majority of Haiti's peoples, at home and abroad, for more than
TWO years now, and training and paying a puppet Haitian government
with no popular mandate and massive human rights abuses and political
repression. Stop UN, US, OAS, Canada, France's hypocrisy. Their
authorities are the ones holding the political prisoners in Haiti.
They are coup d'etat countries with the UN as their proxy militarizing
Haiti and fleecing it dry with their IMF/World Bank debts and
foreign "free trade" multinationals exploiting Haiti's
access to the Windward Passage (Mole St Nicholas); oil (in La
Gonave); uranium, iridium and Haiti's goldmines in the Northeast,
gas reserves Near Aquin and our State companies, ports and plentiful
and cheap labor force. They are the RESPONDIAT SUPERIORS, not
the puppet Latortue government or its corrupt and paid-off judges.
Write to media urging them not to let the International Community
pass the blame to their very employees - the Latortue death regime
and its corrupt justice system.
Demand that the mainstream media stop being false witnesses and
turning a blind eye to the truth in Haiti: to the WHO holds the
keys locking the political prisoners behind bars and destroying
justice, decency and democracy in Haiti. It's this INTERNATIONAL
COMMUNITY with UN soldiers as henchmen, with its USAID, World
Bank, IMF and IRI/NDI Economic
Hit MEN, wielding its defacto protectorate in Haiti,
using the Latortue regime, its foreign-trained Haitian technocrats
as its proxy and "black face" in Haiti
Demand that these coup d'etat implementers, FREE the people before
giving back the reigns of government illegally held by the international
community's employees in Haiti.
Demand that all contracts entered into under the illegal US regime's
reign must go to a national referendum placed before the people
of Haiti and no backdoor structural adjustment economic plan be
foisted on the people of Haiti, either through the outgoing coup
d'etat regime, the contracts its illegally signed or through US/Euro
false benevolence such as "debt forgiveness."

Update: Yvon
Neptune Released, July 27, 2006
(BBC News)
Haiti ex-PM released from prison | BBC | July 28, 2006
Haitian
former Prime Minister Yvon Neptune has been released from prison
after serving more than two years without being convicted of any
crimes.
He
had been held on charges relating to the killing of opponents
of ex-President Jean-Bertrand Aristide shortly before he was ousted
in 2004.
Mr Neptune has always denied the allegations and
held repeated hunger strikes while in jail.
He was taken by ambulance to a UN-run hospital for treatment on
his release.
The UN mission in Haiti (Minustah) issued a
statement saying the health of the 59-year-old politician had
declined dramatically in prison.
A lawyer for Mr Neptune - who served as prime minister from 2002
to 2004 - said his client had been released for humanitarian reasons.
"After the hospital, he is free to go home. I'm confident
that charges will be dropped," Mario Joseph said.
The interim administration installed after Mr Aristide's fall
from power, and the recently-elected government, had faced strong
international pressure to free Mr Neptune, whose imprisonment
became a rallying call for Aristide supporters.
President Rene Preval, who was elected earlier this year, is himself
a former ally of Mr Aristide.
Mr Aristide was forced from office in an armed rebellion in February
2004 and is currently living in exile.
Thousands of UN peacekeepers were later deployed to try to quell
the unrest which continues to plague the Caribbean nation.

Caricom welcomes release
of Haiti's former leader, criticizes 'arbitrary' detentions
The Associated Press
Posted July 30 2006, 11:16 AM EDT
GEORGETOWN, Guyana--The Caribbean Community regional group has
welcomed former Haitian prime minister Yvon Neptune's release
from jail but criticized the ``arbitrary'' detentions of other
prisoners in the troubled country, the group said in a statement.
Neptune was released from a Haitian jail Thursday, more than two
years after he was arrested on charges of orchestrating the killing
of opponents of ousted President Jean-Bertrand Aristide at the
start of a rebellion that engulfed the country.
But Neptune's release ``should not obscure the fact that a large
number of persons supportive of former President Aristide arrested
arbitrarily for what appeared to be political reasons under the
interim administration have also been denied justice,'' the 15-member
group, known as Caricom, said. It did not disclose further details.
Still, the group praised Haiti's new President Rene Preval, who
took power in May, for efforts in strengthening the nation's judicial
system.
Neptune's release came a day after the regional alliance announced
plans to give Haiti US$17 million (euro13 million) as part of
an international effort to aid the impoverished nation of some
8 million people.

OAS WELCOMES RELEASE OF YVON NEPTUNE
July 28, 2006
The Assistant Secretary General
of the Organization of American States (OAS), Ambassador Albert
R. Ramdin, today welcomed the release from prison of former Prime
Minister of Haiti Yvon Neptune.
"This is a very positive development, as Mr. Neptune's imprisonment
has been an issue of concern to the member states for the past
two years," Ramdin said. "During every meeting with
Haitian authorities, we conveyed our concern about his long pre-trial
detention and asked for an immediate resolution to his case."
Ambassador Ramdin, who attended the International Conference for
the Economic and Social Development of Haiti, held in Port-au-Prince
earlier this week, added that the release of the former Prime
Minister "also demonstrates, in my view, an important signal
of the current administration to deal effectively with the issue
of pre-trial detention."
"During the recent donor conference, the OAS reiterated its
support to the Haitian authorities in their efforts to strengthen
and modernize the judicial system," Ramdin noted.
Last month, the OAS General Assembly adopted a resolution entitled
"Strengthening Democracy and Socioeconomic Development in
Haiti," renewing the OAS commitment to support Haiti in such
areas as strengthening electoral institutions, developing and
maintaining a civil registry, providing training for political
parties, helping to strengthen the judiciary and law enforcement
agencies, and fostering economic development.
