Back from Haiti, Rev. Jesse Jackson Calls for Emergency Food Aid to a Starving Nation Devastated by Longtime US-Led Interference, Subversion
Reverend Jesse Jackson has just returned from Haiti, where the World Food Program is warning of a "major crisis" if international donors fail to help feed Haiti's poor. Prices of rice, beans and cooking oil have doubled in the past few months. The soaring food prices have had a devastating effect: two-thirds of Haitians live on less than a dollar a day, and 47 percent are undernourished. We speak to Rev. Jackson about the US responsibility to feed a nation long targeted by Western subversion. Rev. Jackson also shares his thoughts on the recent fallout between Democratic candidate Barack Obama and his former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright. [includes rush transcript]

  • i wish this lady wouldn't talk like she is trying to hold the stick up her ass in place.

  • Liberals who support illegal immigrants are actually (unknowingly) siding with greedy U.S. corporations. Why? Because they (ie. liberals) are protecting corporation's profit rich, cheap labor workers.

    WHO WINS? Greedy companies AND illegal workers (earning FAR more than in Mexico).

    WHO LOSES? The U.S. labor class (U.S. proletariat) via job losses to illegal workers & depressed wages.

    Thus 120 years of American wage struggles fought since the Haymarket Rebellion of 1886 are being undermined.
