Haiti to Receive $100 Million in Additional U.S. Assistance
Funds will supplement the $60 million already allocated for 2004
The United States will provide an additional $100 million in assistance for Haiti, according to a statement issued May 24 by U.S. State Department spokesman Richard Boucher.
The funds are in addition to $55 million in humanitarian aid and $5 million allocated for the Organization of American States Special Mission to Haiti in the 2004 fiscal year, Boucher said.
The new funds will support training for the Haitian National Police, electricity generation, jobs programs, and economic development. The funds will also help cover the Haitian government's budget deficit, among other uses, according to Boucher.
Even though the new funds will greatly assist Haiti, "we also look to our international partners and friends of Haiti to continue to provide the country with both funding and assistance," Boucher said. He added that other countries "have made significant contributions, but more will be needed."
Following is the text of Boucher's statement:

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE Office of the Spokesman
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 24, 2004
STATEMENT FROM RICHARD BOUCHER, SPOKESMAN United States To Provide Additional $100 Million for Haiti
We are pleased to announce the availability of an additional $100 million for Haiti. These funds are in addition to the $55 million in humanitarian aid and $5 million allocated for the OAS Special Mission already allocated for Haiti in fiscal year 2004. As Secretary Powell indicated during Interim Prime Minister Gerard Latortue's recent visit to Washington, the United States is committed to Haiti's security, economic recovery and national reconciliation.
The additional assistance will allow us to provide advisors to Haiti's government Ministries, training for the Haitian National Police, and funding to help cover the budget gap Haiti's government inherited. The funding will also support electricity generation, jobs programs, humanitarian assistance and economic development for the Haitian people.
Though this additional funding by the United States will greatly assist in rebuilding Haiti, we also look to our international partners and friends of Haiti to continue to provide the country with both funding and assistance. They have made significant contributions, but more will be needed.

Lots of Democrats have railed about the deficit problems under Bush.
I expect they will be quite upset with this 100M giveaway - our deficit is a big problem.

You could give the entire wealth of the world to the Haitians and all you would have would be some pretentious negroes driving around in fancy cars and wearing gaudy clothing and jewelry for a year or so......then it would be back to the hell on earth that they have created for themselves.

In a way it's sad.
In some ways negroes are as innocent as children.

If that 100 million dollars keeps tens of thousands of those screaming savages on their island then it's the best use of my tax dollars that I can recall in a long time.

Yes, but it only delays the mass immigration. Currently, all the traditional barriers to [illegal] immigration are being deliberatly destroyed. Already, immigration of Haiti is high.
In the long run, only two things will stem the flow of immigrants. The least likely of the two is the success of white nationalism (save America before it's destroyed). The second is the destruction of America, the reduction of American to a relatively unattractive 3rd-world country.

One really wishes that an earthquake would occur off Haiti that would cause that part of Hispaniola to slide off into the abyss of the Caribbean sea.

2004 is Haiti's bicentennial year, too, isn't it?
200 years of black majority rule, just think of it.
You'd think the liberals would be dancing in the streets.

Yes, the savage uprisings in Haiti (I was not exaggerating when I said they slaughtered all the white people) and Jamaica were major reasons that John Brown and all those wacky abolitionists freaked out the South so badly. They couldn't dismiss them as mere nutjobs, because the results of their kind of thinking had been in Haiti.

BET TV is probably working on a documentary to celebrate. They'll claim Haiti is a perfect place, save for what whites have done and are still doing.

They are kind of like a couple of wino deckhands I used to know in the oilpatch back in the 70s and early 80s in Louisiana. It didn't matter if they had $100 or $100,000. It was all gone inside of a week.
Come to think of it, that is how about 97.34% of Negroes are too.

Poor impulse control is the other side of the low IQ coin.
