Don't Count Haiti Out

Haiti is a nation of resistance and resilience.  Were this not the case, it would not exist. Despite what Pat Robertson and other misguided religious zealots may so, the Haitian people did not deserve this.  They will pick up the pieces and begin the long, hard task of rebuilding.  As Amy Wilentz states in her op-ed piece to the LA Times below, it would be a mistake to count them out.  Haiti won't be the same, but it will recover.
