Commander in Chief Fidel Castro Ruz today reported in his Reflections those 400 doctors and health providers and its humanitarian assistance in a field hospital next to Port au Prince Military Hospital while the European Union announced in Brussels that next Monday 27 ministers will meet to evaluate and support further efforts to Haiti.
The images published by the international media and Web sites worldwide as well as the testimonies of active users of blogs, journalists and aid workers reflecting the tragic days is living this Caribbean island, where the desolation and despair are the daily struggles of the homeless people whose numbers are speculated exceed 3 million.
Haiti's event at the dawn of 2010 has sparked off a heated controversy on social networks like Twitter, Sonic, MySpace, Facebook, on the one hand, comments from spokesmen as Pat Robertson, who stated to Christian Broadcasting network that Haiti received a curse for a "pact with the devil" in 1804, and the other end a musician in the Caribbean country and people of good will who care about and dealing with the fate of the poorest people of our region.
The leader of the Revolution, comrade Fidel Castro in his reflections today entitled: The lesson of Haiti, alerts us when he states: Haiti is a net product of colonialism and imperialism, more than a century of use of its human resources jobs harder, military interventions and the extraction of its richness.
I agree with Fidel when he states that Haiti is a shame of our time, due to historical and social events that will govern it. This country of 10 million people, where are deployed about 9 000 members of the missions of the UN, MINUSTAH, is one of the last in the list of the countries with bad human development index, life expectancy does not exceed 52 years and only 1 from 150 Haitians receives a salary while the clearing of their forests than 95%.
Its rulers in history have been marked by extortion, dictatorial rule, corruption and governance crisis, omitting imperial intervention at all times has been a constant, because you have never forgiven Haiti, its historical merit of having rebelled against colonialism from France and be the first nation to defeat the armies of the empire of Napoleon Bonaparte.
The empire of colonialism, imperialism and racism world can not accept its existence to Haiti. Even nature has now shifted back. However, the progressive forces and peace that are increasingly in the world, the powerful forces of human welfare, also turn their gaze to the children of François Dominique Toussaint Louverture and Jean Jacques Dessalines; the speakers of the first nation institutionalize its Caribbean Creole (Creole) as official language.
Now I remember also a great writing of Eduardo Galeano when the world celebrated the bicentennial of the Haitian Revolution. In this article titled: The Story Silenced: Haiti, the writer states:
"From the Revolution to here, Haiti has only been able to offer tragedies. It was a happy and prosperous colony and is now the poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere. Revolutions, some scholars concluded, lead to the abyss. (When the powerful men do not want, tell to Nicaragua and throughout Latin America). And some said, and others suggested that the Haitian tendency to fratricide derives from the wild heritage that comes from Africa. The ancestors’s term of office. The black curse, which causes the crime and the chaos. Of the white curse, did not talk ... "
Haiti is a country thrown into landfill, by eternal punishment of its dignity. There lies, like scrap. Wait hands of its people, concludes Galeano.
So, Professor Galeano: Haiti news today is worldwide, and expects only "THE HANDS OF THE PEOPLE".
