Aristide Says He Was Kidnapped

From Democracy Now

Aristide says he was “kidnapped” and taken by force to the Central African Republic. Congressmember Maxine Waters said she received a call from Aristide at 9am EST. “He’s surrounded by military. It’s like he is in jail, he said. He says he was kidnapped,” said Waters. “He did not resign…. He was abducted by the United States in the commission of a coup.” Robinson says he spoke to Aristide on a cell phone that was smuggled to the Haitian president.

Will this revolution be televised?

    You know, I’m not sure what to think about that. On the one hand, I wouldn’t put anything past Rumsfeld & Co. On the other, Aristide was a wee bit delusional about his chances of staying in office.
