Bush Formula for Disaster Relief: Deprivation, Militarization and Genocide

By Brenda Norrell

President Obama's appointment of George W. Bush to cochair the Haiti relief, with Bill Clinton, should sound an alarm.
During the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, Bush established a pattern, now being carried out in Haiti: Deprive the people of food and water and militarize the zone. As people become more desperate, continue the genocide of people of color with force by the military and assassins like Blackwater/XE. Steal as much land as possible. Permanently displace as many people of color as possible and separate children from their families. Funnel money into private contractors and partner with corrupt politicians. All along, coop the media and deceive the public.
Then, victimize the victims, physically and psychologically: The US is now planning to send Haiti refugees to Guantanamo.
It is also important to remember that during Hurricane Katrina relief, that American Indian Nations donated millions of dollars to the Red Cross, to help Indians hard hit. The Houma Indians in southern Louisiana, the largest group of Native Americans devastated, did not receive a penny of aid from the American Red Cross, according to Houma Nation Chairperson Brenda Dardar Robichaux. It was private citizens and stores that did come to the Houmas aid.
On the other hand, the International Red Cross should be recognized for documenting the US military's torture of detainees in Iraq, during the Bush administration. This was revealed in federal court in Tucson during the trial of two priests, Franciscan Fr. Louie Vitale and Jesuit Fr. Steve Kelly, who stepped across the line at Fort Huachuca Army Intelligence Center in southern Arizona. Vitale and Kelly knelt in prayer, were arrested and were served time in prison to draw attention to Fort Huachuca's role in the US torture in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Now, instead of Bush and Cheney being held accountable for war crimes in violation of the Geneva Conventions, Bush is selected to cochair Haiti relief.

WASHINGTON-The Pentagon appointed a three-star general to head the rapidly expanding U.S. military relief effort in Haiti, which is shaping up to be one of the biggest-and most challenging-American humanitarian missions in years. Lt. Gen. P. K. Keen, the deputy director of the military's Southern Command, has been tapped to lead a new joint task force devoted to Haiti. Gen. Keen, who is already in the country, will be charged with managing the half-dozen large ships and roughly 8,000 military personnel who will soon be in or near Haiti, which was devastated by a 7.0-magnitude earthquake that may have killed tens of thousands of people.
