11. Protecting the non Haitian oligarch 🤔

12. Jamaica is not a republic. The leader of their government is the Prime Minister.

13. The government of Jamaica is making the correct decision in sending troops to Haiti. This has nothing to do with the crime situation in Jamaica the fact his even the rich powerful countries like Europe, China, USA, etc are struggling with high crimes. Jamaica has a well trained military force subsequently its a part of our duty to assist our Caribbean neighbors. We would like other to help us during time of trouble. I congrats the Jamaica PM on this move.

14. The United States harbors a deep-seated resentment towards Haiti, stemming from a bold declaration made by Haiti following its victory in the war for independence—a declaration that reverberated throughout the Western world, particularly in the United States, a burgeoning extension of Western imperial power. Haiti, at that time, was the focus of global attention, having achieved a momentous feat by defeating the mightiest force of the era, the Napoleonic army, thus signaling the strength of its revolutionary spirit. The Haitian revolutionary forces, renowned for their invincibility and ferocity, extended an extraordinary offer: to any black or oppressed peoples across the globe, subjected to the horrors of slavery, racism, or colonial tyranny, Haiti would offer sanctuary. Haiti had reached out for support and now offered refuge, protection, and most significantly—freedom—to those who sought it, welcoming them to its shores by land or sea. Many accepted this offer, choosing to settle in this newly formed republic. It is, therefore, imperative to appreciate the magnitude of Haiti’s audacity in making such a proclamation—one that defiantly challenged the Western powers, particularly under the very gaze of the emerging white-dominated United States. This formidable nation, Haiti, the first black republic, stood unbowed and undefeated, a symbol of resistance and resilience. It is no wonder that even today, the Western world and the United States remain embittered by Haiti’s enduring defiance and unwavering spirit. The collective Western response has been to bring Haiti to its knees—once powerful, both politically and economically, it has now been rendered among the weakest and most impoverished. As the world watches, complicit or indifferent, the Western powers, including the United States, continue to undermine and dismantle Haiti—a nation that once gave so much for the greater good of humanity. Bitterly, nations like Kenya, Jamaica, and others in Africa and the Caribbean, Latin America etc, who themselves have benefited from Haiti’s stand against colonialism, now aid in the fulfilment of the West’s most nefarious ambitions. These nations, along with much of the world, owe their freedom, in part, to Haiti’s revolutionary legacy. Yet, they have turned their backs on the country in its hour of need. But let it be remembered: what does not destroy us makes us stronger. The yoke of colonial slavery did not break Haiti, and though it may now face humiliation, starvation, and betrayal, Haiti and its people will endure. Those who mistakenly believe that Haiti will succumb to its present struggles have gravely underestimated the strength of its spirit. In time, Haiti shall rise again and surmount the adversities it now faces. Long live the Haitian Revolution of 1804—a momentous date marking the liberation of humanity.

15. They should of send the gang members not war them like

16. Wtf

17. The solidarity exhibited by African, Caribbean, and Latin American nations etc, towards Haiti has, historically, been minimal, frequently overshadowed by apprehension over the economic and political ramifications imposed by Western powers. While there have been symbolic gestures, such as diplomatic expressions of support and limited aid, few of these nations have ventured into significant commercial partnerships or long-term investments with Haiti. The ever-present fear of sanctions, restricted trade, or political pressure—particularly from the United States and France—has often served to deter deeper involvement. For many, the safeguarding of their own economic and geopolitical interests takes precedence over the risk of incurring the wrath of the West by forming too close an alliance with Haiti, a nation long isolated due to its enduring political turbulence, economic hardships, and historical Western interference. Even the Dominican Republic, a nation once sustained by Haiti in its early years when it could scarcely support itself, has largely abandoned Haiti in the face of U.S. disapproval. Despite their shared island and intertwined histories, the Dominican Republic has, over time, distanced itself from Haiti, especially when pressured by Western powers. Rather than seeking closer cooperation, the Dominican Republic has chosen to adopt stringent immigration policies and limit economic engagement, thereby prioritising its relationship with the United States and other Western nations to avoid diplomatic and economic repercussions. This broader reluctance to engage with Haiti reflects the prevailing hesitancy among regional nations, driven by a pervasive fear of Western retaliation. Long live the Haitian Revolution of 1804, a historic moment not merely for one nation, but for the liberation of humanity.

46. Going through these comments. It's embarrassing to see just how ignorant Jamaicans are. It's a damn shame.

47. America may be rich, but we too have problems that deserve more focus. All this time and money spent trying to clean up other countries is aggravating to most US taxpayers. We don’t’ all wear rose-colored glasses when it comes to our own country. As great as it is, it’s frustrating to know how much better it could be if we focused all this attention on domestic problems. That’s why Trump, given all his baggage, is still in the race. Harris will probably be Biden 2.0 and simply follow most of his policies.

48. France leave Haiti alone

49. Why him don't go why him and his sons don't to fight ?
