On Dec. 22, 2006, more than 30 unarmed Haitian civilians, including women and children, were killed by indiscriminate gunfire from United Nations “peacekeeping” forces, reportedly as collective punishment for a massive demonstration days earlier calling for the return of President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, who fled the country amid a rebellion.

Film footage recorded by the Haiti Information Project, a humanitarian organization, shows an unidentified man dying as he describes being shot from a circling U.N. helicopter. The group also has video of a teenaged boy shot by U.N. forces, who, before he dies, explains how the U.N. opened fire on unarmed civilians.

Those who are responsible for the indiscriminate firing must be investigated and tried in court. If found guilty, they must be meted with appropriate penalties to give justice to those who died.
