I think this is another case where the Obama Administration is continuing mistakes and abuses done by its precursors. Haiti is a poor enough country as it is, and has benefited as much from the US Empire as Pakistan did from the British. I find this an example of offensive and immoral and unjust imperialism on the part of an administration that campaigned to be something other than these things. I don't think there's anything too much more to say than that.
Edit-Well, there is one thing: Wikileaks does expose the occasional thing that was not already known.
