The Boston Globe's Invisible Ink: Haiti

Part of a new series I will be posting regarding stories that appear on the Boston Globe web site, but never appear in my printed paper.

"Boat with up to 200 Haitians capsizes" by Associated Press | July 28, 2009

PROVIDENCIALES, Turks and Caicos - A vessel carrying as many as 200 Haitian migrants capsized near the Turks and Caicos Islands yesterday, the US Coast Guard said. One survivor said the boat struck a reef as they tried to elude police.

About 70 passengers were stranded on a reef and four bodies were recovered, said Petty Officer Third Class Sabrina Elgammal, a Coast Guard spokeswoman in Miami. The rest of the passengers were missing and feared dead....

The boat had been at sea for three days when passengers saw a police vessel and steered the boat onto a reef as they tried to hide, survivor Alces Julien told the Associated Press at a hospital were some of the rescued were receiving treatment. Haitians routinely take to the seas in rickety, overcrowded boats in hopes of escaping poverty.

You know, given this next item one would begin to think the racist, Zionist Globe hates black people.

"U.N.: 35,000 displaced by new fighting in Congo

July 25, 2009

(CNN) -- A new outbreak of fighting in the embattled eastern region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo has forced 35,000 people from their homes, the U.N. refugee agency said. Thousands of people have fled parts of South Kivu province and have relocated to Congo's borders with Rwanda and Burundi, the agency reported.

The mass exodus was spurred by this month's new offensive by the Congo government against the ethnic Hutu militia, Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda. This latest uprooting brings the total number of civilians displaced in South Kivu since the start of the year to about 536,000 people, according to Ron Redmond, spokesman for the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees.

More than 1.8 million people are now internally displaced in the volatile region, he added. Some places in the region, such as Lemera and Mulenge, are like ghost towns, sitting nearly empty with almost 20,000 people believed to be hiding in forests in the area, the agency said.

"We are monitoring the situation of those most vulnerable, identifying people at risk and with specific needs, including victims of sexual violence and arbitrary detention," the spokesman said.

Several human rights agencies have said there is a rise in sexual assaults on women in the region. Human Rights Watch released a report this month that said the United Nations had registered 7,703 cases of sexual violence in 2008. Military courts in the province convicted 27 soldiers of crimes of sexual violence during 2008. In March 2009, 11 soldiers were convicted on charges of rape as a crime against humanity, the report said.

When Was the Last Time You Heard About.... the Congo?

And the Globe is ignoring this (the agenda must be supporting it then, huh)?

Maybe this is why:


"Congo Rapes, Violence Linked To Multinational Companies: Rights Group

The militarization of mining in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is prolonging the armed conflict which has been tearing the country apart for more than 12 years. In their broader struggle to seize economic, political and military power, all the main warring parties have carried out the most horrific human rights abuses, including widespread killings of unarmed civilians, rape, torture and looting, recruitment of child soldiers to fight in their ranks, and forced displacement of hundreds of thousands of people. The lure of eastern Congo's mineral riches is one of the factors spurring them on."

I guess the Globe really does hate black people.
