Use the following excerpt from Mohandas K. Gandhi's "Statement in the Great Trial, 1922" to answer the question below:
"In fact, I believe that I have rendered a service to India and England by showing in non-co-operation the way out of the unnatural state in which both are living…I am endeavoring to show to my countrymen that violent non-co-operation only multiples evil, and that as evil can only be sustained by violence, withdrawal of support of evil requires complete abstention [avoidance] from violence...I am here, therefore, to invite and submit cheerfully to the highest penalty that can be inflicted upon me for what in law is deliberate crime, and what appears to me to be the highest duty of a citizen."

If I remember correctly they've invaded Haiti more than once, that's if you don't count the present situation. I would think the US army won't be in a hurry to leave. As for the American people, they wouldn't be interested unless it caused them problems. Incidentally, I was interested to see that the often derided Scientologists flew in a Jumbo containing a large consignment of aid. The boy Travolta piloted them in his personally owned plane.
