The Western-owned "United Nations" are NOT in Haiti because they wish to help Haiti. They're there to make monies at toy soldier jobs, doing nothing good.


The corporatocracy has made BILLIONS with their Caribbean BILLIONAIRES oligarchs (Bigio, Acra, Mevs, Brandt, Nadal, Coles, Baussan, Vital, Vorbes, Madsen..) pillaging Haiti resources underground including causing devastating environmental injury digging up Haiti, all behind the UN humanitarian front.

Ezili Dantò's Note:
Who are the subcontracted Haitians?

The Caribbean billionaires in Haiti are what HLLN defines as the subcontracted Haitians. They're the mercenary families pulling the strings of chaos, violence and instability in Haiti in order to serve the imperialist and garner more personal wealth. They're the morally repugnant economic elites in Haiti who live off exploiting and disenfranchising the poor, the better to plunder their labor, lives, health, aspiration for happiness and to hoard and privatize the nations' rich natural assets. They're parasites, leeches who live of the blood and sufferings of the people. They service the enslavers Haiti's founding father and indigenous Black army destroyed to create Haiti. They do not celebrate Vertierres. These subcontracted Haitians are the middlemen, the overseers keeping the majority contained in poverty and white supremacist degradations on behalf of the Western corporatocracy, blan kolon -the US/Euro empire.

The subcontracted Haitians Category Zero. The imperialists are Category One. The subcontracted Haitians, category Zero work for the imperialists. They include the wealthy families in Haiti - the 0.5% of the population which owns 98% of Haiti's wealth through monopolies orchestrated and supported by Western policymakers and corporations.

These subcontracted Haitians at the top of unfettered capitalism's food chain are mostly former asylum seekers from generations back, (Arab, Egyptian, Lebanese, Syrian, Germans and Sephardic Jews running from religious persecutions, economic deprivations or political oppression) who found SANCTUARY, ASYLUM and a SAFE-HAVEN in Haiti. But who thank the Haitian nation and peoples' hospitality with a bloody history of hiring paramilitaries, private security/attaches and the army/military to promote their own personal wealth. These mostly, morally repugnant economic opportunists thank the Black Haitian nation by using their lighter skin privileges, dirty monies, international passports and connections to work with foreign agents, imperialists and Neocons to bring coup d'etat/regime change, privatization of Haiti public assets into their own and their master's pockets; to bring neoliberal economics, unfair trade, wage slavery and other death projects that benefit their personal wealth and greed at the expense of the exploitation and containment-in-poverty of the Haitian majority. The subcontracted Haiti families pulling the instability strings in the shadows, include: Acra, Mevs, Brandt, Nadal, Coles, Baussan, Vital, Vorbes, Madsen, Kouri, Sada, Loukas, Boulos, Bigio...(See Haiti's Oligarchy: The Mercenaries Families and other Bourgeoisies - http://bit.ly/J4MJzO )

2010: Haiti oil reserves

Amidst the utter devastation left in the wake of the earthquake that rocked Haiti on January 12th, new findings indicate the existence of 3 million barrels of oil in a shallow formation offshore the island.

The Greater Antilles, which includes Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and their offshore waters, probably hold at least 142 million barrels of oil and 159 billion cubic feet of gas, according to a 2000 report by the US Geological Survey. Undiscovered amounts may be as high as 941 million barrels of oil and 1.2 trillion cubic feet of gas, according to the report.

Among nations in the northern Caribbean, Cuba and Jamaica have awarded offshore leases for oil and gas development. Trinidad & Tobago, South American islands off the coast of Venezuela, account for most Caribbean oil production, according to the US Energy Department.

According to French scientist Daniel Mathurin, “The Central Plateau, including the region of Thomond, the plain of the cul-de-sac and the bay of Port-au-Prince are filled with oil”. He added that “Haiti's oil reserves are larger than those of Venezuela . An Olympic pool compared to a glass of water that is the comparison to show the importance of oil Haitian compared to those of Venezuela.”

Mathurin also stated that “We have identified 20 sites Oil…5 of them are considered very important by practitioners and policies.”

President Hugo Chavez recently announced that he would write off the undisclosed sum Haiti owes Venezuela for oil as part of the ALBA bloc’s plans to help the impoverished Caribbean nation after the devastating January 12 earthquake.

“Haiti has no debt with Venezuela, just the opposite: Venezuela has a historical debt with that nation, with that people for whom we feel not pity but rather admiration, and we share their faith, their hope,” Chavez said after the extraordinary meeting of foreign ministers of the Bolivarian Alliance for the Americas, or ALBA.

He also announced that ALBA has decided on a comprehensive plan that includes an immediate donation of $20 million to Haiti’s health sector, and a fund that, Chavez said, will be at least $100 million ‘for starters.’

Haiti Earthquake May Have Exposed Gas, Aiding Economy (Update1)

Haiti Earthquake May Have Exposed Gas, Aiding Economy (Update1)
By Jim Polson - January 26, 2010 09:15 EST

Haitian Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive in Montreal

Jan. 26 (Bloomberg) -- The earthquake that killed more than 150,000 people in Haiti this month may have left clues to petroleum reservoirs that could aid economic recovery in the Western Hemisphere’s poorest nation, a geologist said.

The Jan. 12 earthquake was on a fault line that passes near potential gas reserves, said Stephen Pierce, a geologist who worked in the region for 30 years for companies including the former Mobil Corp. The quake may have cracked rock formations along the fault, allowing gas or oil to temporarily seep toward the surface, he said yesterday in a telephone interview.

“A geologist, callous as it may seem, tracing that fault zone from Port-au-Prince to the border looking for gas and oil seeps, may find a structure that hasn’t been drilled,” said Pierce, exploration manager at Zion Oil & Gas Inc., a Dallas-based company that’s drilling in Israel. “A discovery could significantly improve the country’s economy and stimulate further exploration.”

Haitian Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive met yesterday in Montreal with diplomats, including U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, to discuss redevelopment initiatives. Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister Lawrence Cannon said wind power may play a role in rebuilding the Caribbean nation, where forests have been denuded for lack of fuel, the Canadian Press reported.

“Haiti, from the standpoint of oil and gas exploration, is a lot less developed than the Dominican Republic,” Pierce said. “One could do a lot more work there.”

Abraham Lincoln’s Consul

The Dominican Republic shares the island of Hispaniola with Haiti. It may have 3 million barrels of oil in a shallow offshore formation that’s probably also shared by Haiti, Pierce said.

“One of the main reasons for the dearth of information on reserves in Haiti is that the Dominican Republic has numerous surface-hydrocarbon seeps while Haiti had very, very few,” he said.

Abraham Lincoln’s consul to the Dominican Republic reported oil seeps there in 1862. Neither nation produces oil or gas. As much as 1 trillion cubic feet of gas may be trapped in a border formation near the earthquake fault, Pierce said.

Pierce hasn’t worked in Hispaniola since joining Zion in February 2005. He said he’s unaware of any petroleum geologists conducting fieldwork in Haiti. There has been exploration of Ocoa Bay, the largest potential oil deposit in the Dominican Republic, he said.

600,000 Without Shelter

“All basins cross the border,” said Paul Mann, co-author of a 1991 paper in the Journal of Petroleum Geology on Hispaniola’s petroleum potential. The paper concluded that “existing seismic data indentify undrilled prospects.”

More than 600,000 people are without shelter in the Port-au-Prince area, the United Nations said Jan. 22. The 7.0-magnitude quake destroyed about one-third of the buildings in Port-au-Prince. It also knocked out the capital’s seaport and water and sewage systems.

“Relief and recovery for the survivors is the priority now,” Mark Fried, a spokesman for British charity Oxfam, said in a statement. “Hundreds of thousands who lost everything but their lives” need water, shelter and toilets to stop the spread of disease, he said.

‘Colossal’ Reconstruction

Haiti will need “massive support” for a “colossal” reconstruction from the earthquake, Bellerive said at the meeting yesterday in Montreal.

The Greater Antilles, which includes Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and their offshore waters, probably hold at least 142 million barrels of oil and 159 billion cubic feet of gas, according to a 2000 report by the U.S. Geological Survey. Undiscovered amounts may be as high as 941 million barrels of oil and 1.2 trillion cubic feet of gas, according to the report.

Among nations in the northern Caribbean, Cuba and Jamaica have awarded offshore leases for oil and gas development. Trinidad and Tobago, South American islands off the coast of Venezuela, account for most Caribbean oil production, according to the U.S. Energy Department.
