US-backed Coup in Haiti 

The United States has just overthrown the elected government of Haiti and sent in troops to reinforce the position of US backed rebels. Some articles on this:
-The Overthrow of Haiti's Aristide: A Coup Made in the USA The World Socialist Website lays out the Coup
-President Aristide Says 'I Was Kidnapped', 'Tell the World it is a Coup' The Rebels & US claim that Aristide resigned, but he says he was kidnapped and forced out of the country.
-Bringing Hell to Haiti
-Dont' Fall for Washington's Spin, Haiti is another example of the US bullying a poor country
-US-Sponsored Regime Change in Haiti
-The Second Coup in Haiti against Aristide
-Aristide Backers Blaim US for Ouster
-Haiti as Target Practice
-Historic Roots of the Haitian Civil War A background piece on Haiti I wrote shortly before the coup

This is not the first time the US has done something like this. There's been US coups and attempted coups in Chille, Iran, Guatemala, Venezuala and many other places over the past fifty years.
