Haitian Ambassador Raymond Joseph Responds To Robertson

Instead of making up devil stories like Pat Robertson, Raymond Joseph uses actual history. He argued that the Haitian slave revolt allowed the United States to make the Louisiana Purchase for just $15 million, and that it allowed Simon Bolivar to "deliver Gran Colombia and the rest of South America."

"What pact the Haitians made with the devil has helped the United States become what it is".

America slaughtered millions of indigenous men, women and children. America had slavery for 200+ years. America has exploited every immigrant group from Europe to Asia to Latin America/Mexico. America imposes its capitalism on every developing nation to steal its resources and institute cheap labor.

We don't need to make a pact with the devil, we are the devil. I love my country, but by no means do I mask what we did to get where we are.
