Prosecuting Aristide

I think the American government's investigating whether Aristide is guilty of corruption after they *ahem* "suggested" he leave is a bit sketchy. Even stranger is the idea that no investigation into the terms of Aristide's exile is necessary. Saith Colin Powell in response to this:

"I don't think any purpose would be served by such an inquiry," he said. "We were on the verge of a bloodbath and President Aristide found himself in great danger."

Yeah, right. But now, the crisis has been averted, so we are going to indict him.
