- Haiti remains stuck in a state of anarchy with gangs controlling Port-au-Prince and a UN-backed international force still not on the ground. Is there any prospect of democratic control? And how much is Biden to blame of the civil disobedience. Amy Wilentz speaks to Freddy Gray on Spectator TV.

Don't try to blame this mess on the gun laws in the US to make the excuse of ridding the second ammendment
💯
Exactly. Typical journalist view. As if gangs do not always have weapons, especially in places like Haiti. Maybe guns in hands of the decent, law-abiding men would help?
Haiti has been broken for decades.
And it has been controlled by the USA for 100 years.
It has been broken since the French touched it!
@@The_New_IKB Japan literally had nukes dropped on them and they managed to rebuild into one of the world’s strongest economies over half a century. At some point you have to stop blaming your failures on others and put the work in.
@@TheIcarusEffect just proves that the French can do more damage to a nation than nuclear weapons!
Centuries
It’s getting old now that Haiti itself is NEVER to blame and always a victim. Same in Africa. At some point these people MUST take responsibility for their own country and actions. Almost every political figure in Haiti is either corrupt or worse.
yes
The U.S State Department have been picking, selecting these corrupt leaders in Haiti for decades now. Through rigged election and meddling in their politics.
They picked the bad leaders because they can be blackmailed easily. Haiti's corrupted last Prime Minister for example was picked and supported by the U.S despite the objection of the majority of Haitians.
So yes, Haitians want to fail and succeed on their own, they want to take the blame for their failures and credit for their success, but the bigger powers like the Bureaucrats in DC and the U.N don't want them to. Why are they so deep in the politics of Haiti, a country who looks like a dumpster now? Ask Anthony Blinkin, ask Joe Biden
US Democrats are corrupt and worse, yet Americans keep electing them. Put US citizens last.
Why don't the west just leave them alone?
The earthquake in 2010 was devastating, but the international response and money given was huge. Yet the place looks like it hasnt changed in 14 years. Haitians need to take responsibility.
It is worth noting that the eastern part of the island is the Dominican Republic where the GDP per capita for 2021 was $8,400 against Haiti with $1,800. The DR has built a wall across the island to keep the Haitians out and are very quick to deport any that get through. Haiti has been unlucky but also very badly governed. The whole island suffered very badly from deforestation up until the 1980's when the DR started to address the issue but Haiti did not.
The problem with Haiti in my opinion is they have way too much open waterway for people to come and go doing nefarious things.
Amy open your doors and take care of some Haitians then since you are so exclusive with your feelings. In regards to your forgone conclusion, It's not that people don't care, its that people are already overloaded with VIOLENT CRIME and fear more. Do you live in a wealthy community where crime is low? I bet you do, not everyone has that luxury. Spare us the b.s.
You can't just buy a gun in the US, let alone buy 12 to send to Haiti. Imagine going through a background check for a bunch of weapons without raising any eyebrows.
Some of the worst people I have ever met were educated, rich Haitian people. I’m not surprised the ruling class doesn’t care.
Disgusting analysis by Amy Wilentz. She sounds like another DEI grifter.
Laughable analysis from a so-called "expert". Everything she says is warped around to suit her own politics.
Please focus on British politics.
Really this is the worst piece of leftist analysis I think I might have ever heard. First of all there is the contention that Americans don’t care about the Haitian people. I am sure that there are many Americans who care deeply about right and wrong. And then to blame the current situation on historic racism is laughable.
Looks like an absolute dump
Interesting to note that the guest does not believe that the Haitians do not possess agency. They have been completely independent for over 200 years, when will be responsible for themselves? I fear that Miss Wilentz is demonstrating classic racism of low expectations.
min 3:22.."vey lax gun laws". Any stricter gun laws than what Florida has have been declared unconstitutional
So which is it? American apathy or American interventionism?
This journalist is typical. She needs to blame America for the immorality of all black people, everywhere.
Like parts of London? I jest of course, not really 'gangs' in London’s case.
They should start by changing the name of their country.
American memory is long when maintaining a grudge against a country or an Individual. Guantanamo prison and Cuba give poetic symbolism to this fact as does the despicable treatment of Manning & Assange.
Depressing though it is we should look at these facts.
If only the USA would try to lead by example and earn truly global credit.
Where is Thomas Sowell on this? So sick of leftist ideological idiocy.
Thomas Sowell died. I’m not being sarcastic. He actually is in Heaven.
You know we're just gonna send em to the rest of the country.
YT prossies.
Spectator grifters.

Mad lad desantis to stop them landing
Let the Blacks rule AND see S.A; see Zimbabwe and SEE THE RESULTS. and now the great theory is slavery and victimization; but LOOK AT KOREA that has been ruled by outsiders for 700 years and SEE their achievements.
Will you please ditch your 'jazzy' intro & concluding music, it's absolutely jarring when set against the very serious & sometimes deeply distressing topics you cover. It's inappropriate & makes it sound like 'we're all jolly here folks!". This interview was likely a revelation to a lot of people, please don't undermine such serious topics with your little diitys.
That was very interesting, and damning of America. Nothing surprises pabout that country. Poor Haiti
Chinese Bot for sure
@@duncanfindlay3227 Who? Where? Mr BBQ?
Well, has Britain taken in any Haitians? America has taken in 120,000 plus Haitians. And more are coming. Shove off with your criticism about America until you know what you’re talking about.
@@shawnaweesner3759 Why on earth would Britain take any Haitians? Didn’t you hear a single word your compatriot said about Haiti? It’s appalling whether you are American or not. Don’t take it personally. The British Government’s of most eras have been a bunch of bastards too. I have no problem recognising that and I’m not going to make excuses for them. They still are absolute bastards and anything you want to point the finger at, I’ll happily agree with you. There’s plenty to choose from.
