Its been a failed state since I was kid 60 years ago.
110 years at least.
Nothing can raise IQ
It is a failed state on purpose! The colonizers are afraid of Voodoo… as they should be!
Thanks to France , Canada, and the United state that constantly destroying the country. I
@@defensorlibertatis9342nope It failed from the start.
A meeting with "Haitian stakeholders". What a weird phrase.
Thanks. I was wondering about that myself. 4:16. Are those bankers that loaned money to Haiti? You would think Haitians are the true "stakeholders."
Basically means other more advanced countries and Caricom. Same idea behind calling the coup a resignation.
I hope the Clinton Foundation can help Haiti again
I think they mean "steak" cut from human bodies.😂
@@oraz. Barbecue rejected Caricom's latest moves a few hrs ago. He said that Caricom cannot tell Haiti what to do and that Haiti should not be apart of that group. He basically wants a government in place that will not attempt to go after the approx 200 gangs across the island.
My grandfather passed away a few years ago but he spent 30 years traveling to Haiti feeding children and building churches. It would break his heart if he could see how bad it is now. He truly loved Haiti and its people. I grew up with Haitians my whole life. They would stay with my grandfather in Cleveland, Tennessee so the place was always filled with laughter and good food.
He has received his crown 👑 from the heavenly Father 🙏🏽 an our ancestors.God has said "well-done"Thanks for sharing.
😂😂😂 he wasted 30 years of his life.
May OUR LORD SEND HIS ANGELS. DEAR FRIEND OUR LORD
HAS NOT FORGOTTEN HAITI.
IT LOOKS LIKE WITH OUR EYES.

TAUGHT YOU.
I DON'T KNOW YOU!!
BUT PLEASE BE ENCOURAGED.
HAVE FAITH IN GOD.❤ AMEN. ❤

Life is never a waste if _the person_ feels good about it. That's the most important result.🤍
building churches was a waste of money.
feeding children just encouraged another generation to grow up expecting handouts.
your grandfather was part of the problem, not the cure.
Lord please bring some relief and peace in Haiti
Your lord has and will continue to do NOTHING
@@mirrrsterythe Lord and free will are not mutually exclusive… these times are the result of the actions of humankind unfortunately
When was there not a crisis in Haiti ???
Haiti has not recovered since they defeated the French who had enslave them. They rebelled and defeated the French and kicked them out, France and US investors made Haiti pay them "reparations" over 122 years...FOR REFUSING TO LET FRANCE ENSLAVED THEM FOREVER. GET IT!!!
@@benjamintaylor4402Much of that money was paid by the Dominican Republic during the 22-year Haitian invasion. and he made the Dominicans pay taxes to pay France
Well if they call it a cricis then that will be the excuse for sending them to America.
This is worse they killed their leader and it’s been like the purge since
It's not on the brink, it already is. It has been for a long time.
There's no order. It's a complete breakdown of society, or whatever society existed.
I'm Haitian and I fully agree.
Blactivity
@@silentmajority8365keep your maga racist views to yourself
@@silentmajority8365Dozens of Black countries are not anywhere as bad as Haiti 🇭🇹.
And you think that Haiti was conceived a failed state?
My dad passed away three years next month, he spent decades and hundreds of thousands of dollars through donations building churches and homes for the Haitian people, feeding thousands as well as housing many Haitians in our homes since I was a teenager. Of his 40+ trips to the beautiful nation of Haiti, with me accompanying him almost a dozen times, his love for the people there grew exponentially! I miss my friends living there deeply. Although I miss him dearly, there’s a part of me that’s glad he hasn’t had to witness this heartbreaking demise of wonderful, loving and generous people. 🇭🇹
This is beyond horrible for the people that just want peace in Haiti. I have worked in south Florida with many Haitians and made some great friends. I'm so sorry for their families there.
If u will let all the haitians to Florida it will became Haiti, you better worry of your country(
Send them back
On the brink?? 😂😂😂. It's never been a successful state.
You don’t know history haiti was one an agricultural productive world leader, watch your fingers!
You don’t know what a failed state is
@@dragonflarefrog1424 We do
Its Haiti
@@SWAGonda187 Not under B control
@@silentmajority8365 A failed state requires specific criteria that Haiti only recently met.
Haiti was NOT ALWAYS like this. Watch the youtube video "Introduction To Haiti, 1950s"
If you're wondering why Haiti is like this now, you should read about it's history, including how it was forced to pay France, (then later the US) billions of dollars for rebelling and winning their freedom from slavery in 1804. This gigantic insane debt crippled the Haitian economy from the start, and they finished the payments in 1947. These payments included interest and enriched American companies and economy such as citibank. Imagine making your slaves pay for escaping slavery. Then when they work their way out of the debt, you come back and keep trying to control them. You should then ask yourself why does the US and other European nations have a 'stake' in Haiti? Why when Haitians elect their leaders, somehow the democratically elected and well loved leaders end up assassinated by weapons supplied by the US government. These people are now trying to remove PUPPETS. Haiti was the first and only black country to fully rebel against Europeans and WIN. I'm sure they will be able to finally kick out the Europeans and regain their status. Proper leaders will emerge!
We are on the same page. I stated the same thing before seeing your comment. It took Haiti 122 years to finish paying so-called "Reparations" to France defeating them and not allowing France to enslave them. But the media won't tell the true story.
We see the result of that "win")) Germany was paying reparations for 1 and 2 WW to 2013.. so why do the germans do know how to produce food and haitians eat dirtcookies?)
Keep dreaming
Thank you for sharing
Blaming "whitey" like always? Good luck with that!
This is so sad ... Pray for the good people of Haiti and children.
Do you know why this has happened? Whats the root cause? Whats the solution? Whose problem is it?
Heartbreaking 💔 I pray for peace to fall upon the land and healing for all Haitians ❤ I am so sorry for all your pain and suffering
Amen
The gang leader believes destruction is the way of life in getting things done. What a failed state!
Not a state.
Who do you think is paying the so called gang leader, whom was a policeman not too long ago?🤔🤫
"Destruction is the way of getting things done...". Wow, he sounds just like Biden and our Democrat Politicians..
@@Alexfly3000 In this context a government is known as the state
If you looked into the history of Haiti you’d see how France crippled the country post the Haitian revolution & set them up to fail 🙄
It's been that way forever
You have no idea what forever means.
Another blaqq paradise in the making...😁
Yeah, ever since the Haitians defeated the French who wanted to enslave them. Then France and the US placed a blockade on that side of the island. And then France made Haiti pay them, France, for lose of income BECAUSE HAITI WOULD NOT LET FRANCE ENSLAVE THEM. AMAAZING!!

like Trump said, "It is a sh!+hole",the dominicans are not helping this ungratefull people anymore ,theyre DISAGREEABLE to the Dominican island
"change does seem necessary" that's a gigantic understatement
Haiti should follow El Salvadors example on how to deal with gangs
Hey transplant all if the Haitians to south Florida, they will all be welcome there🎉
I don't think the Haitian Gangs have tattoos in the face and are as easy to identify like The Maras Or 18th streeters
Send them to America? They already did that
That won't work for Haiti because Haiti if full of real ones. Only real ass solutions will work for real ones. Let the gangs rule like the real ones they are.
conner: Who would organize that?
they have been eatng clay and flour tortillas for 5 years, no gas, no meds. But lots of guns and ammo.
Uummm i wonder where they get them from???? Satan spawns are busy as usually creating havoc to every nation their feet land the good colonizers 😂
You can thank the US for that

All 3 of them
@adamblack6867 yes how many people have your culture destroyed historically? More than anyone else in the world, you most likely belong to that violent oppressor culture...you know the ones that steal everything throughout history then claim it as theirs
@@adamblack6867? What do you mean
@@adamblack6867you think thousands of children are not innocent?
all 4 of them
Mud pie is the most disheartening word I've heard in a good while and in 2024 sounds even crazier.
it is a lie from the news media. Propaganda! that's all it is
The practice of eating it began on West Africa and persist in small pockets of coastal GA and SC - the soil in those areas are rich with minerals and the pies were mostly consumed by pregnant women. I have never had one, but I have an aunt who would make a version of them we are Gechee from SC.
Pray for Haiti.
How is is that going to work
Praying
Praying will do nothing
@@mirrrstery thanks Debbie downer...take your meds
Who creates the gangs?
The government.
so people are just robots?
In this case, yes, the government...considering that the man leading all of this was once a part of a governmental agency.
Looks almost as bad as Kensington Avenue in Philadelphia
🤨 I haven’t seen anything about the gangs coming together to overthrow the government
Lol😂 that's not funny!
Or POTA
everywhere in the world it's Kensington Avenue
Wait my comments got deleted
On the brink of famine but they have bullets for the guns?
Exactly! How are they getting Guns?
Thanks to the self-declared saviors of the world
Very typical for those people, the same they are doing on their own continent
@@lisaroberts8556arms dealers in the US and Mexico. Look in the mirror first
Diversity is our strength
Looks like Africa.
They need to close the embassy and let them settle their own problems
where are they getting the ammo and guns?
CIA
@@andrewmurphy7231 Take your tinfoil hat of young man...
Not from the CIA like some misleaders would have you believe, but definitely mostly from the United States. It's not hard to buy guns in the US and smuggle them out.
Red, white, and blue.
my comment almost verbatim!
“Barbecue” = Idiocracy
No, :"idiocracy" would be those Americans in red states that are allowed to export their weapons to Haiti. Cut that line and you disarm the gangs there.
future president barbecue, same vibes as president Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho. the end is near.
barbecue is fucking based, I support him.
"haiti on the brink of being a failed state". I thought I heard this back in the 1970s.
Praying for the people of Haiti. 🙏🏼
And being thankful that we still have it as good as we do in the United States.
Haitian people already choose they own leader. This crisis will never end until the Caricom with all the allies let them resolve their problems by themselves
Even the mother terressa types have left,🥴
Yep they just want more $$....
Yeah it'll never end until the colonizers leave them the f alone. Satan spawn been planting the firearm and placing their puppet into power. But satan spawn folks days are numbered and the birth rate are low😂
They will never resolve their problems
Your comprehension skills are bad, they didn’t elect the prime minister
"Barbeque". Really? God, please help. Amen.
Probably a cannibal
@@jmmx69He’s setting people on fire in the streets and they eating them.😮 it’s frightening.
Voodoo be religion of Haiti@@gailgray6653
Documentary from few years ago say the nickname start out quite innocuous, it is just the leader grew up in a BBQ shop ran by his mom.
Then.... well, I suppose he embraced the branding, perhaps a little bit too fervently.
went there during the 90's, a solemn, honest, happy people then.
I knew about this 10 days ago. Glad ABC News is so quick with the news LOL!
We have no room .....
Haiti's problems are not America's problems.
Let the UN send their troops to help and supply aid.
@@Jay-lc1voYou’re kidding right? Where do you think a ton of those asylum seekers at the border are coming from? Do you people not know how to connect dots?
MARA
theres room . up the ladies ass. especially the woke ladies, let them handle these men.
I can where this is going, "The big guy is going to invite them here.
Buckle up folks, it's coming to the US just a matter of time.
Why do people like you always wish for the worst? If you can't stand up for the U.S. just leave.
Yep. Trump has already said he would pardon the Jan 6th morons.
Who do you really think is causing this? 🤔
Take your malignant pessimism somewhere else.
Yup CSliberals will be importing them here
Anyone able to read the subtitles when creole was being spoken? I tried a few times
So heartbreaking.
Maybe Clinton can head down there and help out like before.
And wyclef
Did she ever?
@@IzabellaKolasyes. Cankles and her syndicate went to Haiti to do good… and they did very well indeed.
@@IzabellaKolas Yeah it’s sarcastic.
For sure
Let the other Caribbean nations come to Haiti's aid.
Let other Arab nations help the people of Gaza.
America is a poor country now also. We need to help our people.
Dominican Republicans need to help but they feel too entitled to help their own Black ppl..Shameful
Imo, US has been laundering trillions for years and years and years lining politicians pockets becoming filthy rich
Well said! The reason all tumultuous countries/peoples are tumultuous to begin with is because other countries have attempted to control them behind the scenes.
America is a poor country? HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAH
America needs help! Criminals have seized control of our country... Who will help us?
As a Haitian man this breaks my heart.I pray my people get help and for the gang to be stoped
What Haitian stakeholders were at the Jamaica meeting?
What a Sad situation of this country it breaks my heart
Are we also going to point out that the existing governments elected or imposed have never made nor maintained national roads?
Making roads isn't a job the government should have
Roads is the least of their issues
Roads are the most of the issue! The gangs only maintain control by controlling the roads and travel also the government is the main entity that should create and facilitate travel wthytb!
Unfortunately the US interfered and removed their democratically elected president in 2004 (twice, in the 90s too), blocked funding that he had secured to rebuild etc. NATO interference can really go south... they make really short term decisions, like arming bad guys to accomplish their mission
😮that’s thanks
As a child I ate mudpies and I never thought people would eat them to survive this world is in total disparity 😢

If anyone really wants to know what its like in Haiti now is the time to travel there for tourism. Cheap hotels, amazing atmosphere, Mud Cakes made from real mud, and BBQ.
The mud pies are great compared to BBQ’s specialty. These people aren’t even civilized.
U trying to get Americans are ? They are literally eating people . Stop it .
Corruption and selfishness hurt so many people. When you deal honestly, everyone wins. There is too much greed on the earth.
LORD HELP THEM THAT SEEK YOU😢
yeah.. like that will help.. 🙄
THE ONLY THING THAT HAS CHANGED IN HAITI, IS THAT IT'S CHANGING HANDS FROM THE BIG GANGSTERS TO SMALL GANGSTERS. THE BIG ONES WILL TAKE IT BACK SOON ENOUGH. SAD AND DISGUSTING.
All over the world, I just don't understand why innocent civilians that have nothing to do with your politics have to die. People just trying to get by and live their lives and you kill your own people. Ridiculous.
What a dump! 😂
No soul comment, imperialism on his mind
Gangsters are criminal.
Governments are Gangsters...
According to the Democrat Party Gangsters are "misunderstood victims" who just need $10,000 debit cards to stop committing crimes.. 😂

It’s always been a mess, total chaos. NO US money. Let them figure it out themselves.
Same way America will figure it out when it’s our turn
Chaos and instability in the western hemisphere should be the number one concern for the US foreign policy establishment. Whenever happens in Ukraine and Israel is of no consequence for the average American because we are separated by ocean. The same cannot be said about Haiti or Venezuela

Haiti has had a difficult past, but at a certain point you cant blame that anymore. Other previously colonized countries have advanced, while Haiti never seems to be able to get it together.
Barbecue you are wicked, look at how you are ruining your country
Look at the old, the children, and everyone. It's sad. Politicians, look what you have done. God is not sleeping. You will get what you deserve. It breaks my heart. If you loved your country, you would want to see it grow. Look at what we are all doing to the land that God has loaned us. We need God's intervention into what is happening I the world. Everywhere is war.

Sorry, I don't think God will help. He can't do anything.
It's going to get worse everywhere just like the days of Noah before Jesus returns.
