The New World Report, a professor of analysis of the US Army War College Strategic Studies Institute.

We're looking at the Americas in crisis. We begin with Haiti.

0:55.0

The headline, Bahamas promises to join Kenya in security force in Haiti as support grows.

1:03.0

The Bahameen government welcomed Kenya's decision to lead a multinational force in Haiti and committed 150 people to support the effort if the United Nations authorizes the force.

People seeking not only a better life, but to survive outside the chaos of Haiti. Professor, a very good day to you. Right now Haiti is an abandoned member of the OAS.
