What is going on in Haiti?
MSF plane with medical supplies can't land.
Just heard on CBC radio that there is medical supplies sitting on landing strip 200 metres away from where it is needed but they can't get it.
Choppers landing at the Palace disgorging armed US troops but no aid.
All the pictures that I see of US and CDN troops are carrying guns not help.
It is looking much more like the disaster is being used as an excuse to overtly occupy Haiti as opposed to an aid mission.
Disaster capitalism at work.
