Actually I am not , I have to claim ignorance, but thank you for the information, you are actualy right, by the way I know have seen ethiopian with such a look, are you aware they are mixed as well ?

ANTONIOJ, SAID
Sorry you are an idiot, besides who care about you being a " wannabe" racist, I think you are simply ignorant.
ARCATYPE:No Antonioj i think you are ignorant, everything for you is a racial issue. Its all haitian apologetics i understand is your line of defense, the fact that Annakarina posted her statement in another language that most people dont understand makes her also an ignorant person plain and simple.

I am very familiar with the way Ethiopians look (they vary depending on ethnic group/region) but I would never see the similarity between an Amerindian looking person and an Ethiopian.
To tell you the truth, due to the admixture, you can find Dominicans that look similar to Ethiopians/Somalians/Eritreans.

So Trujillo was in all sense of humor and seriousness a direct reflection of Hitler. Since Hitler himself was part Jew, would you not say Lautaro (lol)?

Funny huh, how those who always seem to have hated certain races have in fact been part of the very same race they hate which has proven it to be a sense of inferiority in themselves as the part they wish they never were. Much like if I was to one day launch a hatred Campaign against Dominicans when I am part Dominican. Or If I was to one day launch a hatred Campaign against Haitians when I am part Haitian... correct?

So why have no Dominicans picked up on that and use this to promote more peace and more people of color self love instead of fueling and feed hatred of old inherited past resentments and not a better path to reconciliation to set aside and to rest or even ceased this constant racism?

arcatype,
please, it was french and my comment wasn't adressed to u, rather to muchacho who seems to speak and understand french.

"No Antonioj i think you are ignorant, everything for you is a racial issue"

Reverse psychology at his best, unlike you, I have no hung up about race, this forum can attest to that. The questions I was asking Mr USAdr were legitimate, and again you are confusing ethnology with racial issue. The word "confusion" is an interesting one, since it seems to apply consistenly on all your postings.

ARCATYPE: AntonioJ you know what they say "cant take the heat then get out of the kitchen" im not confused you just cant handle the truth.

I was merely pointing that you have avoided to mention these undeniable facts that took place in history, how proud you are indeed; there should be no shame noticing them either. You went in a rant; frankly I could not care less about your fallible opinion…. the gist of my argument remain the facts that you did not quote them and NOT the reason why… . Instead of gracefully acknowledging these facts you have chosen to resort to rhetoric.

Let me add your attempt to obfuscate my point, using your mediocre off subject chosen argument is not persuasive, but laughable.

Wrong. Your posts suggests that you are confusing posters ( I just recently joined) and mix-matching posts. Go back and read the thread progression and my specific posts (I am USADR).

There is no 'ranting' in my post...they are very clear basic facts free of emotion.
And you did not answer the question: One more time...How many times did DR invade Haiti?

Now given what historical fact indicates that several times Dr troops were amassed by the border in attempt to possible invasions why Duvalier (The Father) had to seek US help. Although even that was due to Duvalier's act that DR at that time deemed to have been an insult given that Duvalier I think did something to some Dominican groups that were residing in Haiti at that time or some kind, but you can research it and I will go try to get you a link that you will not say is Haitian fabricated.

To note lastly that DR did not get its Independence from Haiti. Also a historical fact, although DR decided and went on speculation of the romanticism that such independence was taken from Haiti.. No, DR got its independence from Spain to whom they annexed the Country to. Always remember that. Nevertheless, as a Dominican-Haitian I can agree with you on that, true technically DR never indeed or in fact physically invaded Haiti, but not to justify or take Haiti's side... Trujillo did march up and gained territories on the neighboring border of Haiti where he changed most of the names of towns that were in French in Spanish names which was considered an invasion to Haiti. Call Haiti's invasion of DR false pretexts or not if you may, but in all record of history it is said and recorded that Haiti's intent or given excuses, if you will, was that they did not want France or any other Former European conquerors to come back and re-colonize the Island and at that time or in a sense (so to speak) DR was not yet DR it was still considered Saint Domingue and the Spaniards had been left the Island on to other explorations, but I am sure you have your own scenarios and adamant rebuttals to debate that and this is what it's all about as long as we are debating those issues to me it is a form of communication ad a possible path toward reconciliation to put to rest all these inherited resentments nonsenses... Constant bolstering at the border of both Nations went back and forth to say that they both were in constant mind frame that at any given moment the other could invade and over time this develops this deep rooted hatred and resentments that we are dealing with today as though the previous or past tensions were not greatly divisive already. Thus what we need to ask ourselves is as so and such:

"How much of the past do we (As the youths of today from both Nations) choose to keep with us and how much are we willing to put aside to move forward?"

In case any of you both Haitians & Dominicans have not realized, all those supposedly leaders in the past are dead and we are dying with their conflicting beliefs as new generations as well when we should try to live with new founding hope toward a future for the Island. How about from now on both side lay on the table the changes they would like to see and see if they can be accommodated on both side huh?
