A family man and a fan of Bush (Guy Philippe) Haiti

[trumad]

I got this from Indybay.org... read the other links they've posted about the thug who now controls Haiti.

The rebel leader Guy Philippe is a former army officer who admires President George Bush.

Mr Philippe, the son of coffee farmers who turns 36 on Sunday, trained at a military academy in Ecuador after Mr Aristide disbanded the army, where he received instruction from French troops and the US secret service.

When he returned to Haiti the president named him assistant police chief in Cap Haitien, the city where rebels under his command now hold sway.

After being accused of plotting a coup in 2000, Mr Philippe fled into exile in the Dominican Republic, which shares an island with Haiti. Mr Aristide also accused him of being a drug trafficker, a charge the rebel leader denies.

He likes Mr Bush because: "I like tough guys, guys who protect their country."

3. He also said a couple of days ago that he admired Pinochet

The man he most admires is former Chilean dictator Gen. Augusto Pinochet, he said. ``Pinochet made Chile what it is.''

We back dictators early and often, all over the world.
