U.S. Sending Military Assessment Team to Haiti
The United States is assembling a small military team to travel to Haiti to assess the security situation and gauge whether the American Embassy is properly protected amid political violence in the Caribbean nation, U.S. defense officials said on Thursday.
A military team of three or four people from U.S. Southern Command, based in Miami, is due to travel to Haiti within 48 hours at the request of U.S. Ambassador James Foley, said chief Pentagon spokesman Lawrence Di Rita.

2. Exactly
The Bush* Cabal is behind the destabilization of Haiti. They firmly believe the wealthy land owners should control the country and not a popularly elected President. The people voted by over 70% for Aristide.
