You do understand Haiti is being run by gangs at the moment, right? Close to a hundred thousand people have fled the capital city, this isn't some righteous revolution or something, it's a bunch of small time fascists taking advantage of a weak state and an unwillingness by the US to get involved try to seize power.
The UN and US are providing funding to help Kenya provide some kind of security. Whats your alternative? Let Haiti burn?
Wonder how haiti came to be run by gangs 🤔/gen
TLDR a history of French colonialism which is why people want Kenya at the wheel on any intervention rather than a former colonial power.
Not an answer. You literally don't have one, all you've got is "America bad".
Welp, the US is sitting this one out, so now's your chance to offer a solution on how to help without US interference.
I wasn't answering, should have put a /gen
They will be greeted as liberators, solving the problems we made
Please... Haiti has been run by mob bosses as long as it's been Haiti. Papa Doc? That name ring any bells? It's a sovereign nation. They've obviously been okay with this for quite some time.
Ok, so Haitians are just pre-disposed to violence and savagery and it's best to just let them eat eachother to death. Got it.
You're sure you're not the imperialist?
