The guilty do not bear guilt within themselves. <br /> I hope the spirit of the true survivor is ignited within the Haitian people. There will always be the arrogance of the "entitled" to deal with. What will be given to the Haitians must not be stolen again by the fox in the henhouse.Lynnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7078491749528166598.post-83234267003595878922010-01-16T08:22:40.390-05:002010-01-16T08:22:40.390-05:00Timely poem.

Somebody please tell me that it's not true.<br /><br />I hope that when the people of Haiti have recovered from this ordeal they will quickly be given new opportunities, just as those infamous institutions which put the world economy in peril were quickly given new opportunities.<br /><br />Haiti must have the chance to rebuild, replant, repair and reform; to climb off the bottom rung of the economic ladder. <br /><br />Nations that made their fortunes off the back of the slave trade must now be 'encouraged' do more - to go that extra mile.Gwil Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03305768121713053837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7078491749528166598.post-27756057810308444192010-01-15T23:09:09.328-05:002010-01-15T23:09:09.328-05:00Hi ALeks-

The experience in Haiti is quite unimaginable - I always think that the earth moving and splitting must be the worst experience of all as you have absolutely not point of reference.
