Just read an interesting book on the 1994 Haitian Invasion
It's called "Hideous Dream:A Soldier's Memoir of the US Invasion of Haiti" and it's written by Stan Goff. A fascinating look at military life, Haiti and a bit of a political primer, too. It's pretty pertinent to what's going on in Haiti right now as well. I'll include links to the book, some reviews, as well as a website that gives a no BS assessment at Haitian news and U.S. foreign policy there.

1. Stan Goff is a great human being

He's seen it all first hand and walked away with his humanity in tact.
