231 year Anniversary —
August 22, 1791 to August 22, 2022.
Hayti's cholera case against the US and its criminal proxy occupation army, the UN, was a non-starter. It was brought forward (against the UN) by left gatekeepers Institute for Justice and Democracy in Haiti (IJDH), but did you know: Nicaragua is alone in winning a court case against the "evil-doers" of US empire?
"The Republic of Nicaragua v. The United States of America (1986)[2] was a case where the International Court of Justice (ICJ) held that the U.S. had violated International law by supporting the Contras in their rebellion against the Sandinistas and by mining Nicaragua's harbors. The case was decided in favor of Nicaragua and against the United States with the awarding of reparations to Nicaragua."
"The U.S. also blocked enforcement of the judgment by the United Nations Security Council and thereby prevented Nicaragua from obtaining any compensation.[4] Nicaragua, under the later, post-FSLN government of Violeta Chamorro, withdrew the complaint from the court in September 1992 following a repeal of the law which had required the country to seek compensation.[5]"
No justice, no peace.
Now, Nicaragua has allowed Russia to stage military manuevers for the first time ever on its territory.
Nicaragua and other rebellious states have sparked a boycott of Biden's "Summit of the Americas."
Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua weren't invited, so the presidents of Mexico and Honduras, Andrés Manuel López Obrador and Xiomara Castro respectively, have skipped the event.
History shows that most empires decline and fall sooner or later. The US is succuming to this decline a lot sooner than most in just 246 years, since "the Declaration of Independence" from England.
The greatest uprising ever, which lead to the first ever successful enslaved rebellion in the known history of the world; as described by the Encyclopedia Brittanica: "The revolution was actually a series of conflicts during the period 1791–1804 that involved shifting alliances of Haitian slaves, affranchis, mulattoes, and colonists, as well as British and French army troops."
The British will lay claim to first having abolished slavery (the same empty gesture the French signalled on Feb. 4, 1794, when the British threatened their slave colonies), but often neglect to mention having suffered 50k in military casualties at the hands of the barefoot soldiers of Hayti, before their change of heart on the matter of chattel slavery.
The British held part of the island until their withdrawal from Saint Domingue (Hayti) in 1798.
When did the British abolish slavery? The Slavery Abolition Act 1833, was the UK law which abolished slavery in most of the British Empire.
Meanwhile, Biden maybe should have invited China, who's influence in the Americas is rising.
"Live the legacy. Or, die as a zombie in the white colonists' great disaster story."
