French Accuse U.S. of "Occupying" Haiti

Wow! Isn't that what Hugo Chavez said too? I thought the world was going to love Obama's America?

The French minister in charge of humanitarian relief called on the UN to "clarify" the American role amid claims the military build up was hampering aid efforts. Alain Joyandet admitted he had been involved in a scuffle with a US commander in the airport's control tower over the flight plan for a French evacuation flight. "This is about helping Haiti, not about occupying Haiti," Mr Joyandet said.
