...days after addressing the United Nations General Assembly last week, Haitian President Jean-Bertrand Aristide sat down in his New York hotel room with TIME's Amy Wilentz, author of The Rainy Season: Haiti Since Duvalier.

...come home. "We are at a point where the baton is ready to be passed." In fact, if anything was ending it was only the first -- and easiest -- phase of the operation. Now the U.S. faces the more difficult challenge of making Haiti safe for returning President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, expected to arrive by the end of the week.

Hundreds of U.S. troops occupied Haiti's National Palace this afternoon, helping supporters of returning President Jean-Bertrand Aristide free the government of junta influence down to the last paper-shuffler.

Aristide, meanwhile, plans to return to Haiti in grand style Saturday, with three planes stuffed with so many guests that the State Department is complaining. In addition to Secretary of State Warren Christopher, the party includes the Rev. Jesse Jackson...
