Guns or Food? Sustainability vs Sustainment in Haiti
*They (the Haitians) are astonishing people. How can they be so calm in the
face of such enormous loss of life and loved ones, and all the physical
damage?=94*
[image: clinton-crowd]
=93Actually,=94 Clinton told Frei, =93when you think about people who have =
lost
everything except what they=92re carrying on their backs, who not only have=
n=92t
eaten but probably haven=92t slept in four days, and when the sun goes down
it=92s totally dark and they spend all night long tripping over bodies livi=
ng
and dead, well, I think they=92ve behaved quite well [...].
*Sustainment Command (Expeditionary)*
The Sustainment Command is a United States Army Logistics Headquarters. The
Sustainment Command=92s primary mission is to command the Sustainment Briga=
des
that provide combat support and combat service support in the areas of
supply, maintenance, transportation, field services and the functional
brigades or battalions that provide medical, general engineering &
construction, smoke generation, biological detection and decontamination
support. The Command is designed to deploy into a theater of operations,
assume command of the logistical units in place and provide oversight and
materiel management.
Nine days after the devastating earthquake that struck Haiti on January 12,
2010, it=92s now clear that the initial phase of the U.S.-led relief operat=
ion
has conformed to the three fundamental tendencies that have shaped the more
general course of the island=92s recent history.
1. It has adopted military priorities and strategies.
2. It has sidelined Haiti=92s own leaders and government, and ignored th=
e
needs of the majority of its people.
3. And it has proceeded in ways that reinforce the already harrowing gap
between rich and poor.
