PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti – Haiti's prime minister says it's clear to him that
the 10 U.S. Baptists who tried to take 33 Haitian children out of the
quake-ravaged country "knew what they were doing was wrong."

Prime Minister Max Bellerive also tells The Associated Press his country
is open to having the Americans tried in the United States.

Bellerive says some of the children have parents who are alive. The
government is attempting to locate them.

He says a judicial system needs to determine whether the Americans were
acting in good faith — as they claim — or are child traffickers.

The Americans are mostly from Idaho. They have been held since being
arrested Friday trying to enter the Dominican Republic with the children.

You've got to be crazy to let religious fundies anywhere near you or
yours...

Some hard time in a Haitian prison might bring them closer to the way of
Christ.




We know a couple of nuns who, among other activities, help Americans
adopt babies and toddlers from orphanages in impoverished nations. They
get the job done for Catholic and non-Catholic adoptive parents, but not
without following legal procedures and ethical standards. I just know
these nuns, if they weren't elderly, would be done in Haiti helping
survivors, not stealing children.
