Haiti's real crisis isn't gangs-it's foreign occupation w/Jafrik Ayiti

The drumbeat of intervention is rolling once again for Haiti. Since last year, plans have been laid for a US-sponsored intervention in Haiti, nominally led by Kenya, ostensibly in the name of fighting "gang violence" in the Caribbean nation. While corporate media has breathlessly pushed the narrative of a lawless Haiti overrun by criminal organizations, such framing deliberately excludes the role of the US and its allies in the so-called Core Group in destabilizing Haiti over the past 20 years in particular-not to mention the past two centuries since Haiti's independence. Quebec-based activist Jafrik Ayiti joins The Real News to help set the record straight on Haiti's history, and how the social disorder splattered across the front pages of Western media outlets has been manufactured by the very governments now calling for intervention.

At the slightest opportunity, Western Media is always poised to let the world know that Haiti 🇭🇹 is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. However, it must be known that this narrative is totally incomplete.

Thanks again for your information and analysis on Haiti History. Keep it coming

[@keithwilliams2852]

(Don't try the censorship thing.)This commenter was thinking that the guest in this video was on the ball about events unfolding in Haiti until he suggested that Field Marshall Cherizier is a "criminal" and should not be allowed to sit at the table in determining the future of Haiti. As the guest has intimated, Haiti is ruled by a tiny clique of wealthy families who keep the majority of the population in line through their surrogates. It is not at all surprising that men like Barbeque would have adopted certain unconventional means to change the status quo and by so doing earn the undeserved stigma of being "criminals." Cherizier and other so-called "gang leaders" have a right at the table because they are the ones who have been courageous enough to sacrifice life and limb to expose the stench that has been reeking in Haiti for as long as anyone can remember. Anything short of that would be the equivalent of what unfolded in Grenada 40 years ago where the people who actually staged the revolution were sidelined by bourgeoise armchair quarterbacks who were regarded as being more representative of the image of the revolution. But we all know how things turned out in the end. In other words, the so-called "gang leaders" simply have to find common cause and continue the struggle in the genuine interest of the Haitian people.

[@hotstepper887]

Haiti. The long-suffering people of Haiti finally elected a truly democratic government led by Father Jean-Bertrand Aristide in 1991. But President Aristide was overthrown in a U.S.-backed military coup after eight months in office.

[@hotstepper887]

REAL US HISTORY - NOT THE CREATION OF A FAKE HISTORY (AS THEY PRETEND TO SEE IT)! 1. Afghanistan. In the 1980s, the U.S. worked with Pakistan and Saudi Arabia to overthrow Afghanistan's socialist government. It funded, trained and armed forces led by conservative tribal leaders (whose power was threatened) by the country's progress on education, women's rights, and land reform. 2. Albania. Between 1949 and 1953, the U.S. set out to overthrow the government of Albania, the smallest and most vulnerable communist country in Eastern Europe. Many of the exiles involved in the plan were former collaborators with the Italian and German occupation during World War II. They included former Interior Minister Xhafer Deva, who oversaw the deportations of “Jews, Communists, partisans and suspicious persons” (as described in a Nazi document) to Auschwitz. Declassified U.S. documents have since revealed that Deva was one of 743 Nazi and fascist war criminals recruited by the U.S. after the war. 3. Argentina. U.S. documents declassified in 2003 detail conversations between U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and Argentinian Foreign Minister Admiral Guzzetti in October 1976. Soon after, the military junta seized power in Argentina. Kissinger explicitly approved the junta's “dirty war,” in which it eventually killed up to 30,000, most of them young people, and stole 400 children from the families of their murdered parents. Kissinger told Guzzetti, “Look, our basic attitude is, that we would like you to succeed, the quicker you succeed, the better.” The U.S. Ambassador in Buenos Aires reported that Guzzetti returned in a state of jubilation, convinced that there is no real problem with the US government over that issue. 4. Brazil. The CIA provided all the support needed to ensure the success of the coup, including funding for opposition labour and student groups in street protests, as in Ukraine and Venezuela today. 5. Cambodia. As the Khmer Rouge gained strength in 1973, the CIA reported that its (propaganda has been most effective among refugees subjected to B-52 strikes). After the Khmer Rouge killed at least 2 million of its own people and was finally driven out by the Vietnamese army in 1979, the U.S. Kampuchea Emergency Group, based in the U.S. Embassy in Bangkok, set out to feed and supply them as the (resistance) to the new Vietnamese-backed Cambodian government. Under U.S. pressure, the World Food Program (WFP) provided $12 million to feed 20,000 to 40,000 Khmer Rouge soldiers. 6. Chile. After General Pinochet seized power in Chile, the CIA kept Chilean officials on its payroll, and they worked closely with Chile's DINA intelligence agency, as the military government killed thousands of people and jailed and tortured tens of thousands more. 7. China. By the end of 1945, 100,000 U.S. troops were fighting alongside Chinese Kuomintang (and Japanese) forces in Communist-held areas of northern China. Chiang Kai-Shek and the Kuomintang were the most corrupt of all U.S. allies. A steady stream of U.S. advisers in China, warned the U.S. aid was being stolen by Chiang and his cronies, some of it even sold to the Japanese, but the U.S. commitment to Chiang continued throughout the war, his defeat by the Communists saw him flee to Taiwan. 8. Colombia. When U.S. special forces and the Drug Enforcement Administration aided Colombian forces to track down and kill drug lord Pablo Escobar, they worked with a vigilante group called Los Pepes. In 1997, Diego Murillo-Bejarano and other Los Pepes' leaders co-founded the AUC (United Self-defence Forces of Colombia) which was responsible for 75% of violent civilian deaths in Colombia over the next 10 years. 9. Cuba. The United States supported the Batista dictatorship as it created the repressive conditions that led to the Cuban Revolution, killing up to 20,000 of its own people. After the revolution, the CIA launched a long campaign of terrorism against Cuba, CIA-backed operations against Cuba included the attempted invasion at the Bay of Pigs, in which 100 Cuban exiles and four Americans were killed; several attempted assassinations of Fidel Castro and successful assassinations of other officials. 10. El Salvador. The government forces responsible for this one-sided slaughter, were almost entirely established, trained, armed and supervised by the CIA, U.S. special forces and the U.S. School of the Americas. 11. France. After the OSS merged into the new CIA after the war, it used its contacts to restore Corsican gangsters to power in Marseille, to break dock strikes and CGT control of the docks. It protected the Corsicans as they set up heroin labs and began shipping heroin to New York, where the American-Sicilian mafia also flourished under CIA protection. 12. Ghana, There was a rising star in Ghana: Kwame Nkrumah. He was Prime Minister under British rule from 1952 to 1960, when Ghana became independent, and he became president. In 1965, he wrote a book called Neocolonialism: The Last Stage of Imperialism. Nkrumah was overthrown in a CIA coup in 1966. 13. Greece. Prime Minister Georgios Papandreou was overthrown in a CIA-backed coup in 1967, leading to seven more years of military rule. His son Andreas was elected as Greece's first “socialist” president in 1981, but many ELAS-EAM members jailed in the 1940s were never freed and died in prison. 14. Guatemala. After its first operation to overthrow a foreign government in Iran in 1953, the CIA launched a more elaborate operation to remove the elected liberal government of Jacobo Arbenz in Guatemala in 1954. 15. Haiti. The long-suffering people of Haiti finally elected a truly democratic government led by Father Jean-Bertrand Aristide in 1991. But President Aristide was overthrown in a U.S.-backed military coup after eight months in office. 16. Honduras. The 2009 coup in Honduras has led to severe repression and death squad murders of political opponents, union organizers and journalists. At the time of the coup, U.S. officials denied any role in the coup, and they used semantics to avoid cutting off U.S. military aid (as required under U.S. law), the U.S. Embassy was the main power, brokering and managing the aftermath of the coup and forming a government that is now repressing and murdering its people. 17. Indonesia. In 1965, General Suharto seized effective power from President Sukarno on the pretext of combatting a failed coup and unleashed an orgy of mass murder that killed at least half a million people. U.S. diplomats later admitted providing lists of 5,000 Communist Party members to be killed. 18. Iran. Iran may be the most instructive case of a CIA coup that caused endless long-term problems for the United States. In 1953 the CIA overthrew the popular, elected government of Mohammed Mossadegh. CIA paid millions of dollars to bribe military officers and pay gangsters to unleash violence in the streets of Tehran. 19. Israel. Israel remains beyond the rule of law, shielded from accountability by its powerful patron, the United States. Since 1966, the U.S. has used its Security Council veto 85 times, that's more than the other four Permanent Members combined, and 46 of those vetoes have prevented the UN from prosecuting Israel for its crimes against humanity. 46 times the USA has prevented the Palestinian, and the world, from seeing any kind of justice. 20. Iraq. After the U.S. invaded Iraq on false pretences in 2003, the CIA recruited 27 brigades of “Special Police,” merging the most brutal of Saddam Hussein's security forces with the Iranian-trained Badr militia to form death squads that murdered tens of thousands of mostly Sunni Arab men and boys in Baghdad and elsewhere in a reign of terror that continues to this day.

[@hotstepper887]

Cont'd... REAL US HISTORY - NOT THE CREATION OF A FAKE HISTORY (AS THEY PRETEND TO SEE IT)! 21. Korea. The U.S. flew in Syngman Rhee, a conservative Korean exile, and installed him as President of South Korea in 1948. Rhee became a dictator on an anti-communist crusade, arresting and torturing suspected communists, brutally putting down rebellions, killing 100,000 people and vowing to take over North Korea. 22. Laos. The CIA engineered at least three coups between 1958 and 1960 to keep the growing leftist Pathet Lao out of government. 23. Libya. NATO under US command conducted 7,700 air strikes, 30,000-100,000 people were killed, loyalist towns were bombed to rubble and ethnically cleansed, and the country is in chaos as Western-trained and -armed Islamist militias seize territory and oil facilities and vie for power. 24. Mexico. The Zetas cartel was formed by Mexican security forces trained by U.S. special forces at the School of the Americas in Fort Benning, Georgia, and at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. 25. Myanmar. With support from the CIA, Burma's opium production grew from 18 tons in 1958, to 600 tons in 1970. The CIA maintained these forces as a bulwark against communist China, but they transformed the “golden triangle” into the world's largest opium producer. 26. Nicaragua. Anastasio Somosa ruled Nicaragua as his personal fiefdom for 43 years, with unconditional U.S. support. After he was finally overthrown by the Sandinista Revolution in 1979, the CIA recruited, trained and supported “contra” mercenaries to invade Nicaragua and conduct terrorism to destabilize the country. In 1986. 27. Pakistan. In the past 12 years, U.S. military aid to Pakistan has totalled $18.6 billion. One of the three major state sponsors of terrorism in the world today, are U.S. allies. 28. Saudi Arabia. The U.S. negotiated the largest arms deal in history with Saudi Arabia. One of the three major state sponsors of terrorism in the world today, who are, or U.S. allies. 29. Turkey. Turkey is a long-standing member of NATO. Yet is also one of the three major state sponsors of terrorism in the world today, who are U.S. allies. 30. Panama. The indictment to arrest Manuel Noriega in 1971, was a pretext for the U.S. invasion of Panama in 1989, whose main purpose was to give the U.S. greater control over Panama, at the expense of at least 2,000 lives. 31. The Philippines. Since the U.S. launched its so-called war on terror in 2001, a task force of 500 US JSOC forces has conducted covert operations in the southern Philippines. 32. Syria. When President Obama approved flying weapons and militiamen (terrorists) from Libya to the “Free Syrian Army” base in Turkey in unmarked NATO planes, he was calculating that the U.S.could replicate the successful overthrow of the Libyan government. 33. Uruguay. In Uruguay,1970, Police Chief Alejandro Otero objected to Americans training his officers in the art of torture, and he was, later, just "disposed of". 34. Yugoslavia, The US led NATO aerial bombardment of Yugoslavia in 1999 was a flagrant crime of aggression in violation of Article 2.4 of the UN Charter. 35. Zaire. Patrice Lumumba, Congo's first elected Prime Minister in 1960. He was deposed in a CIA-backed coup led by Joseph-Desire Mobutu, his Army Chief of Staff.

In the 1980s, the U.S. worked with Pakistan and Saudi Arabia to overthrow Afghanistan's socialist government. It funded, trained and armed forces led by conservative tribal leaders (whose power was threatened) by the country's progress on education, women's rights, and land reform. 2. Albania. Between 1949 and 1953, the U.S. set out to overthrow the government of Albania, the smallest and most vulnerable communist country in Eastern Europe. Many of the exiles involved in the plan were former collaborators with the Italian and German occupation during World War II. They included former Interior Minister Xhafer Deva, who oversaw the deportations of “Jews, Communists, partisans and suspicious persons” (as described in a Nazi document) to Auschwitz. Declassified U.S. documents have since revealed that Deva was one of 743 Nazi and fascist war criminals recruited by the U.S. after the war. 3. Argentina. U.S. documents declassified in 2003 detail conversations between U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and Argentinian Foreign Minister Admiral Guzzetti in October 1976. Soon after, the military junta seized power in Argentina. Kissinger explicitly approved the junta's “dirty war,” in which it eventually killed up to 30,000, most of them young people, and stole 400 children from the families of their murdered parents. Kissinger told Guzzetti, “Look, our basic attitude is, that we would like you to succeed, the quicker you succeed, the better.” The U.S. Ambassador in Buenos Aires reported that Guzzetti returned in a state of jubilation, convinced that there is no real problem with the US government over that issue. 4. Brazil. The CIA provided all the support needed to ensure the success of the coup, including funding for opposition labour and student groups in street protests, as in Ukraine and Venezuela today. 5. Cambodia. As the Khmer Rouge gained strength in 1973, the CIA reported that its (propaganda has been most effective among refugees subjected to B-52 strikes). After the Khmer Rouge killed at least 2 million of its own people and was finally driven out by the Vietnamese army in 1979, the U.S. Kampuchea Emergency Group, based in the U.S. Embassy in Bangkok, set out to feed and supply them as the (resistance) to the new Vietnamese-backed Cambodian government. Under U.S. pressure, the World Food Program (WFP) provided $12 million to feed 20,000 to 40,000 Khmer Rouge soldiers. 6. Chile. After General Pinochet seized power in Chile, the CIA kept Chilean officials on its payroll, and they worked closely with Chile's DINA intelligence agency, as the military government killed thousands of people and jailed and tortured tens of thousands more. 7. China. By the end of 1945, 100,000 U.S. troops were fighting alongside Chinese Kuomintang (and Japanese) forces in Communist-held areas of northern China. Chiang Kai-Shek and the Kuomintang were the most corrupt of all U.S. allies. A steady stream of U.S. advisers in China, warned the U.S. aid was being stolen by Chiang and his cronies, some of it even sold to the Japanese, but the U.S. commitment to Chiang continued throughout the war, his defeat by the Communists saw him flee to Taiwan. 8. Colombia. When U.S. special forces and the Drug Enforcement Administration aided Colombian forces to track down and kill drug lord Pablo Escobar, they worked with a vigilante group called Los Pepes. In 1997, Diego Murillo-Bejarano and other Los Pepes' leaders co-founded the AUC (United Self-defence Forces of Colombia) which was responsible for 75% of violent civilian deaths in Colombia over the next 10 years. 9. Cuba. The United States supported the Batista dictatorship as it created the repressive conditions that led to the Cuban Revolution, killing up to 20,000 of its own people. After the revolution, the CIA launched a long campaign of terrorism against Cuba, CIA-backed operations against Cuba included the attempted invasion at the Bay of Pigs, in which 100 Cuban exiles and four Americans were killed; several attempted assassinations of Fidel Castro and successful assassinations of other officials. 10. El Salvador. The government forces responsible for this one-sided slaughter, were almost entirely established, trained, armed and supervised by the CIA, U.S. special forces and the U.S. School of the Americas. 11. France. After the OSS merged into the new CIA after the war, it used its contacts to restore Corsican gangsters to power in Marseille, to break dock strikes and CGT control of the docks. It protected the Corsicans as they set up heroin labs and began shipping heroin to New York, where the American-Sicilian mafia also flourished under CIA protection. 12. Ghana, There was a rising star in Ghana: Kwame Nkrumah. He was Prime Minister under British rule from 1952 to 1960, when Ghana became independent, and he became president. In 1965, he wrote a book called Neocolonialism: The Last Stage of Imperialism. Nkrumah was overthrown in a CIA coup in 1966. 13. Greece. Prime Minister Georgios Papandreou was overthrown in a CIA-backed coup in 1967, leading to seven more years of military rule. His son Andreas was elected as Greece's first “socialist” president in 1981, but many ELAS-EAM members jailed in the 1940s were never freed and died in prison. 14. Guatemala. After its first operation to overthrow a foreign government in Iran in 1953, the CIA launched a more elaborate operation to remove the elected liberal government of Jacobo Arbenz in Guatemala in 1954. 15. Haiti. The long-suffering people of Haiti finally elected a truly democratic government led by Father Jean-Bertrand Aristide in 1991. But President Aristide was overthrown in a U.S.-backed military coup after eight months in office. 16. Honduras. The 2009 coup in Honduras has led to severe repression and death squad murders of political opponents, union organizers and journalists. At the time of the coup, U.S. officials denied any role in the coup, and they used semantics to avoid cutting off U.S. military aid (as required under U.S. law), the U.S. Embassy was the main power, brokering and managing the aftermath of the coup and forming a government that is now repressing and murdering its people. 17. Indonesia. In 1965, General Suharto seized effective power from President Sukarno on the pretext of combatting a failed coup and unleashed an orgy of mass murder that killed at least half a million people. U.S. diplomats later admitted providing lists of 5,000 Communist Party members to be killed. 18. Iran. Iran may be the most instructive case of a CIA coup that caused endless long-term problems for the United States. In 1953 the CIA overthrew the popular, elected government of Mohammed Mossadegh. CIA paid millions of dollars to bribe military officers and pay gangsters to unleash violence in the streets of Tehran. 19. Israel. Israel remains beyond the rule of law, shielded from accountability by its powerful patron, the United States. Since 1966, the U.S. has used its Security Council veto 85 times, that's more than the other four Permanent Members combined, and 46 of those vetoes have prevented the UN from prosecuting Israel for its crimes against humanity. 46 times the USA has prevented the Palestinian, and the world, from seeing any kind of justice. 20. Iraq. After the U.S. invaded Iraq on false pretences in 2003, the CIA recruited 27 brigades of “Special Police,” merging the most brutal of Saddam Hussein's security forces with the Iranian-trained Badr militia to form death squads that murdered tens of thousands of mostly Sunni Arab men and boys in Baghdad and elsewhere in a reign of terror that continues to this day.

@@lauiresmallwood885 Or these? Cont'd... REAL US HISTORY - NOT THE CREATION OF A FAKE HISTORY (AS THEY PRETEND TO SEE IT)! 21. Korea. The U.S. flew in Syngman Rhee, a conservative Korean exile, and installed him as President of South Korea in 1948. Rhee became a dictator on an anti-communist crusade, arresting and torturing suspected communists, brutally putting down rebellions, killing 100,000 people and vowing to take over North Korea. 22. Laos. The CIA engineered at least three coups between 1958 and 1960 to keep the growing leftist Pathet Lao out of government. 23. Libya. NATO under US command conducted 7,700 air strikes, 30,000-100,000 people were killed, loyalist towns were bombed to rubble and ethnically cleansed, and the country is in chaos as Western-trained and -armed Islamist militias seize territory and oil facilities and vie for power. 24. Mexico. The Zetas cartel was formed by Mexican security forces trained by U.S. special forces at the School of the Americas in Fort Benning, Georgia, and at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. 25. Myanmar. With support from the CIA, Burma's opium production grew from 18 tons in 1958, to 600 tons in 1970. The CIA maintained these forces as a bulwark against communist China, but they transformed the “golden triangle” into the world's largest opium producer. 26. Nicaragua. Anastasio Somosa ruled Nicaragua as his personal fiefdom for 43 years, with unconditional U.S. support. After he was finally overthrown by the Sandinista Revolution in 1979, the CIA recruited, trained and supported “contra” mercenaries to invade Nicaragua and conduct terrorism to destabilize the country. In 1986. 27. Pakistan. In the past 12 years, U.S. military aid to Pakistan has totalled $18.6 billion. One of the three major state sponsors of terrorism in the world today, are U.S. allies. 28. Saudi Arabia. The U.S. negotiated the largest arms deal in history with Saudi Arabia. One of the three major state sponsors of terrorism in the world today, who are, or U.S. allies. 29. Turkey. Turkey is a long-standing member of NATO. Yet is also one of the three major state sponsors of terrorism in the world today, who are U.S. allies. 30. Panama. The indictment to arrest Manuel Noriega in 1971, was a pretext for the U.S. invasion of Panama in 1989, whose main purpose was to give the U.S. greater control over Panama, at the expense of at least 2,000 lives. 31. The Philippines. Since the U.S. launched its so-called war on terror in 2001, a task force of 500 US JSOC forces has conducted covert operations in the southern Philippines. 32. Syria. When President Obama approved flying weapons and militiamen (terrorists) from Libya to the “Free Syrian Army” base in Turkey in unmarked NATO planes, he was calculating that the U.S.could replicate the successful overthrow of the Libyan government. 33. Uruguay. In Uruguay,1970, Police Chief Alejandro Otero objected to Americans training his officers in the art of torture, and he was, later, just "disposed of". 34. Yugoslavia, The US led NATO aerial bombardment of Yugoslavia in 1999 was a flagrant crime of aggression in violation of Article 2.4 of the UN Charter. 35. Zaire. Patrice Lumumba, Congo's first elected Prime Minister in 1960. He was deposed in a CIA-backed coup led by Joseph-Desire Mobutu, his Army Chief of Staff. And yet we read you people, all thinking you've some sort of right to judge others? Only, you've not got the intelligence, to judge a pass the parcel contest!!

Haiti doesn't need anyone to come and to take control. It's a free country . If Unicef and any other country wants to help, help but don't try to dictate what the nation needs to do. Let them decide for themselves and be able to going back to voting for their leaders

this discussion gives me hope but at the same time troubles me, the global south and westerners who know the truth , and care, have a big battle ahead of them to fight the propaganda and greed causing oppression in many places, in this case Haiti.

The multi-million dollar Liberian armed forces might have been a better nation to align Haitians with in the fight to bring the United States backed insurgency forward. Liberia and Haiti should have strengthen ties years ago to check the United States as an international firestarter.
