INTERNATIONAL
TRIBUNALON
HAITI UN troops shot to death Sonia Romélus, 22, and her
sons Nelson, 1, and Stanley, 4, in their home on July 6
in Cité Soleil. Now the killers will be judged.
Opening session Friday,
September 23, 2005
from 7 to 10 p.m.
George Washington University
Elliott School of International Affairs
1957 E Street, Washington, DC
For three years, Washington, Paris and
Ottawa, working with Haiti's ruling elite,
former soldiers and death-squads, carried out
a destabilization campaign culminating in the
February 29, 2004 kidnapping and overthrow
of President Jean-Bertrand Aristide.
To quell resistance to the coup, armies from the
U.S., France, Canada and the United Nations
have occupied Haiti and carried out or aided
massacres of hundreds of Haitian citizens,
including women, children and infants.
It is time that the criminals be judged.
On the evening before the giant September
24 March on Washington, testimony and
evidence of these crimes will be presented
at the opening session of the International
Tribunal on Haiti. The tribunal will amass
and prepare a case to be submitted to the
International Criminal Court in Geneva. A
Commission of Inquiry headed by former U.S.
Attorney General Ramsey Clark will be formed.
Come witness history in the making.
