Haiti’s Justice Minister tells NBC News that the gang demanded a ransom of $1 million per person, and that it’s not clear where the missionaries are being held. It’s estimated that gangs control as much as half of Port-au-Prince.» Subscribe to NBC News: http://nbcnews.to/SubscribeToNBC

#Haiti #Kidnapping #Gangs
Negotiations Intensify For Release of 17 Missionaries Kidnapped in Haiti
Let’s Go Brandon!
Funded the terrorist TaIiban and now funding Crime Organizations internationally!
Who cares. Unofficially Americans left Afghan with no official help
Haiti is strange why help them
I think Haiti is way overdue for an earthquake.
No one is asking for help only in your wet dreams
Stop helping us. Go away from us and we’ll be what we’ve been before the Monroe doctrine : A Paradise! Tumultuous but still a Paradise. We were self-sufficients until 1982 (year of independence : 1804). and, we’ve had ambargo, colonial debt and we, dealt whit it without nobody’s help. So keep your so-called help for yourself. So the idea that Haiti has always been a country that needs help it’s in your dreams (beacaise you know nothing about the history. All you know if what the news show everytime there’s a problem.)
@South Beach Miami Art tell them haarp is in use haitiens knows that maybe if they Stop they missionary impasable in haiti the orphanage children will stop abuse .
They are trying to Stop the orphanage children abuse in haiti those missionary are everywhere in deserted area with children why ? Why? The gangs knows thats.
DONT pay them! it will just lead to more kidnapping!
So you just want those kids to die huh ..
Don’t worry it’s all God’s plan
God has given us free wil
I’m no longer waiting for the GRANT LOAN because I earn $18,700 every 10 days recently
I’m new to trading and would like to reach out to Mr. Willson. How and where can I do this?.

I have never seen so many spam bots congregate in one area in all my life.
@AllTheSmoke lmao ikr

#von.ong
Haiti don’t need America Russia! Is better la Russia pls I wish Haiti is in a good position for Russia
China is not so bad either, western media is anti Chinese.
Seal Team 6 and Delta Force: *Visible Erections*
troll
The Haitian government needs a Ariel wiz gun to neutralize the gangs
The gangs control the government. They killed the “president” those gangs own haiti😪
🙏😪
To all the people who think America is so racist, and hate our flag, our founding fathers, and what our country stands for : GO TO HAITI and try to live a successful and happy life.
At least it wasn’t a machete or scopamine or Voodoo.
@WFOBaby what’s the difference for the victim😜?
Torture vs Death.
@SFG if us did not invaded haiti in 1915 stolen they riches and the gold haiti will never poor today .relationship between haiti and america is a very complicated one for many haitiens is usa making haiti poor and what they saying is 100 true for that this relationship will never go on in the first place.
@marie. petithomme true
Jeff Bezos should help
Label them as a terrorist group & send some navy seals we don’t negotiate with terrorist we light them up
Those kidnappers will get their heads blown off before they get $17 million from the American govt! Remember what the Navy seals did to Captain Phillips kidnappers off the coast of Somalia?
If Reagan was in charge, those missionaries would have done been home, and Haiti would already be grade ready, for new developments, once all the rubble has been cleared..
Nuking all of Haiti would NOT solve anything. It would just get more innocent people killed in the crossfire, or as collateral damage.
Intel + tactical choices & a clandestine operation would likely be MUCH more feasible.
@No one star rogue states, and countries should be dealt with accordingly..
@Calvin McBride By killing innocents?
I miss Trump…
Trump was bad have you not heard of jan 6
He would have dealt with the kidnappers already. Biden is too soft and the whole world sees it.
@Relax Here He freed 100 people who were held in gitmo for being PART OF THE TALIBAN. Keep telling yourself that he cares.
@Brett Parker You not heard of 2020? Riots, murders, destruction and entire cities taken over and Biden allowed? Oh mkay.
No worries… Its GODs plan hes got this
Where is Bill Gates 🙄🙄🙄he can help
400 mohozo should surrender now. They could give you a billion a hostage…..you’ll never live to spend it. For real the US Seal teams are already practicing where to place the bullet holes in your bodies. Give up now
Try something stupid, those kids brains will be blown all over the place. Think before you want to act Meathead
The tax-free Christian cult will pay ANOTHER ransom to get them out.
Just Haiti slowly becoming another Chad Somalia Sudan because n🤬
Now ours police negotiate with criminals?…. f them…..
I personally offer myself and services for a lil private government mission to take the mother Fulkers out… bring them home already Biden
Its time to vote the dems out of existence
Yeah that’s going to be so easy when trump told you simps not to vote, 600+ people are facing felonies for jan6th, oh and someone just collected the check for substantial evidence of voter fraud and it was committed by a trump supporter.
Good luck!
@desertpunksunabozu White House riot was zero nothing compared to the Dem riots and murders of 2020. Honest people know it was absolutely nothing in comparison to the horror of taking over cities, destruction, etc. And Biden did nothing!! He will be more easily voted out than you think.
@Anon Citizen Of Cyber Interestingly enough, Joe Biden did nothing in 2020 because, wait for it: He was not in office.
Fun fact: Peaceful demonstrations in front of the White House at NO TIME went after the actual property! BUT were
attacked with brutal force and GAS!
Notably, Chump had crowds in the actual streets cleared so he could (strangely) hold a Bible for the cameras.
Factoid: Donnie has never actually read the good book, and cannot quote a single scripture!
@J G Sorry, he was still on the campaign trail when he was go team go, destroy America and definitely hate anything law abiding, caucasian or with spiritual beliefs! Go go go! Love, Joe Joe Joe!
@Anon Citizen Of Cyber Take your dewormer and go back to your trailer.
Biden the Bumbler.
Please
Caucasians trolling
yes they are
The American Public is being played AGAIN….it’s genuinely funny to watch. Koney2012. Bring Back our girls 😂. Send in Seal Team 6
Genuinely funny?? You really stepped way over the line.
Many of those so called missionaries are in Haiti for nefarious reasons like kidnapping children so I can’t trust any stories that come out of the mainstream media related to Haiti. I did see with my own eyes how inhumanely the Haitian migrants were treated by white border patrol overseers.
Psaki said we don’t pay ransom but they paid millions to Russian hackers which was broadcast to the world and they are now surprized by this kidnapping.
I know what is going to happen….this is an old playbook. The majority of hostages are safe and will be released. But….
But not in mexico🤣
E.T. the classic vintage CharlesJosephJacob.dt.
Let’s keep it real, please. Christianity has not served non-whites well, it’s view others as being heathens. Check out the doctrine of Christian discovery by Daniel n Paul, talk about terrorist.
Orphanage owner looks like Elton John and says, “I was robbed at gunpoint.” But he is still alive and doing interviews in spite of kidnappings. Something very wrong in this picture.
NOPE- all true- I know this man personally-David Wine (Black and White for Jesus Ministries) He has been running the childrens home for close to 9 years now and I’ve been there as well. He travels back and forth from FL to Haiti every 3 months for food donations and other supplies for the 67 children he takes care of- he just went back and he saw these reporters in the airport who started talking to him- He is an incredible human being!!!!
@Debra Kelly Black and white ministries? He better be legit or he will face God for it. Too many children getting sexually abused over there. I don’t trust any man with children. Sorry but I don’t.
So called Missionaries????? These are child molesters and kidnappers I believe. Stay out you’ve caused instability in many way in the Country. What on earth do you have to teach or give anyone? You have a track record Missionaries.
Pay ransom and see more kidnappings. Catch and impale the kidnappers and it will stop.
And it hard here to catch Brian who killled gabby here in us
America would have to that because the government there won’t
@AKC_Goat he dead check news
Kidnapping is the narrative you are being told. That isn’t what is happening.
Or just go in and see what the us is all about
I will pray that the kidnappers find Christ and repentance and that their church finds $17 million bucks from their brothers and sisters.
Obama sent in the SEALs.
Biden, will probably make a deadline to pay the money
Bring all the kids home leave the missionaries alone. What they doing over there when their own house is self destructing with Political lies, Greed, Racism, Police Brutality, and orphanages here need help.
Felony penalties for Child endangerment is 1 to 10 years and often carries a fine. Get the kids leave the missionaries. Since when does Tax payers pay for child endangerment?
Why all missionary wanted haiti for they spot specially in the deserted area some people in the groupe wrong doing with children in haiti they are putting michel mately in power invited all this missionary in the country and abusing children.
Why are the negotiations taking so long ?
Because translation and time isn’t easy😪
Do not go to Haiti if you’re not Haitian.👌🏽 stay home.
@DJ Faro very historic💯 and beautiful💫 plus, that’s where they speak the real Haitian language.👌🏽 respect✊🏽✈️🇭🇹
@Joe Kinan-m yes you right. I had a blast there. I really wish Haiti had a chance to develop but sadly it will not get that chance anytime soon. 🥺
@DJ Faro we have to keep fighting for that. Ayiti is our country.💯 we can give it away. We can not let it go.👌🏽
@Joe Kinan-m I hear you brother but I don’t think no one can help Haiti right now. The situation down there is very tragic.
@DJ Faro i understand 🙏🏽✊🏽
Move around mbjhuy6 other countries?..Gollie learn our lesson from 2019?..algvgvgyt5 Mexico need Missionaries?.algvgvgyt5 god acfdsaq want see around stubborness
Why don’t we let their God handle it.
Is this one of those shthole countries fill of shthole ppl?
Do not pay the ransom. If God wants them saved, God will save them. Do not interfere with the will of God.
You got it! Let us see how powerful and caring their god is!
Seriously! Is it because they are christians I know satan and his children hate God children to the fullest. But my God if that was one of our family member or even close friend we would to pray and ask God to bring them out to safety. Well the same way we all can pray and ask God to bring them out to safety it doesn’t matter if they are christians, Muslim, or Atheist. It’s a life and death situations where even innocent blameless children are involved quit being possessed.
Putting the religion aside, paying the ransom would only make the US look weaker than they already are.
Don’t wait for God, get up off your _ss and will it yourself!!!!! 🙌
One thing is for sure, the Christian God is being exposed to the world as a powerless wimp. They will not get many converts by paying criminals a ransom, when a real God would never let this happen in the first place.
Also, what god or father would allow their son to be nailed to a cross??
Y’all have no idea about Christianity do y’all. I’m sure you’ve never read the bible you just like bashing on people you dislike. But god didn’t have to or need to do anything for anyone he is god.Jesus is god.he died because we humans are horrible creatures and need a savior. God took on flesh and gave his life willingly to atone for sins so that we could truly have a relationshipwith god. He loves you whether you love him or not but he tells us we will be persecuted and killed at times because of his name. But every true follower of Yeshua knows 100% that it is a test and a blessing. I get it though i use to say the same stuff you said but God will humble you and he will show you who he is whether you believe or not. knocking himor his people or the people who are missionairies trying to help those in bad situations just shows a real issues internally and i am praying for you both.Yeshua loves you!!!!!! He’s coming soon
Christian God is most religions’ God. Ever see atheists cry for days on their deathbed because they’re sooo scared? That’ll be you. 🤣
@Aubs 07 So god created himself?
They should send in America’s TOP NEGOTIATORS… the Navy SEALS
Bring it in haiti is not a play ground for foreign troops anymore.
@marie. petithomme LOLOLOLOLOLOL… ok
Why are we negotiating? If the church wants them back so badly have joel osteen or one of the other million “men of gawd” pay their ransom. It’s just an “earthly possession” right? Even if they do die they’ll be with their god so it all works out.
I don’t think missionaries are worth saving or worth a ransom
If you are stupid enough to go to one of the most violent failed states in the world you get what’s coming to you. Pure Darwinism.
Haiti don’t have a government, they have wealthy families who have been in charge of the island for centuries. These families have no problem on keeping the habitants on ignorance and misery.
WHAT DO U KNOW?
This organisation do not have a good record with children and the haitiens people knows that and the gangs leaders too.
Navy seals finnna hit hard
No the real world isn’t a CGI movie fool
So much for gods protection of his missionaries. Pathetic God
Missionaries will never learn. Stay away from where you don’t belong. Now you’re going to be sent to your maker.
american said they dont negotiate with terorist.ITS FUNNY i feel bad for the little ones they kidnapped, the adult should have known better.hope in the next llife they dont travel with kids and learn more about where they taking a trip.
The Haitians that are waiting at the sent them back their own people look bad and beside we don’t need anymore immigrants right because what’s going covid-19 going up and the economy on the verge of collapse that is why there no new jobs and people don’t want to work
Funny how they start by saying “tonight, Haiti is a country living in fear…”
This is why I don’t trust the media.
This has been going on for years and ignored.
Must be special people in that kidnapped group this time.
Haiti & Dominican Republic have been living in fear for decades. Don’t believe media at all
this country is a dumpster fire
It’s not the country. It’s the people
Dont mess with MAMA Africas children…
White saviors hahahahaha
Exactly, because Haiti does perfectly fine on her own. 🤣🤣🤣
Why haven’t we sent in the seals yet?
Taliban have taken care of them. They don’t like adventures anymore.
WTF are dementia Joe and his h()e going to do about this ? As usual the President of the U.S. and his veep are no where in sight / news in regards to this. What a disgrace this administration is !! The Navy Seals or Army Rangers should have been in that country. But NOOOOOO !!
You think we should invade a foreign for a few missionaries? You be one crazy fool.
Call the president. Oh wait!
He’s on bed rest…. He can’t at this moment
That Missionary in Haiti has sugar in his loafers.
Let them go it’s so wrong
I agree it’s wrong but the government system are cruel and they don’t care.
Where is Liam Neeson when you need him!
Kidnapping and abduction has been going on and growing for years in Haiti and Dominican Republic.
People know this. Ignore warnings and still go there.
Don’t see why it’s making news now.
Not surprised about this at all.
I don’t go near that island.
Whatever.
Are these the Haitians who got whipped in Texas.
No problem, God is on the job. Asking for donations to pay the ransom. Praise the Lawrd.
Did u take the wrong pills this morning?
that white report gonna be the next one kidnaped.
but dont worry americans, ur loved around the world 😉
Ephesians 4:11
And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
Luke 14:26 explains everything.
my question is why isn’t anyone sending thier soldiers out to save them!!! This is the time that they need to send somene out there instead of sending troops to fight for oil or whatever, this is the time they need to help!!!!
By the words in some of these comments I can see the majority of people who live on this planet lack empathy and common decency. I hope they are safely released. Imagine the terror those pepole are going through…. Very sad.
Not if they believe in Gawd.
They KNEW what they were getting into. What happened is on them , period!
The Lowered knew, also, and did nothing. Praise the Lowered.
Why you all keep on said 17 it’s 18 what about the driver his life is not value or what?🥵🥵 or because he black and Haitian 🥵😢😪🥲 please let me know
Because that’s what the headlines were. Not many know about the 18th person.
Please send thoughts and prayers, and 17 million dollars for expenses.
We have to do better and be better ! And Hatian such as myself have to stand against personal gain instead of helping and uplifting your people and allowing people to help , the little help we do get
Where is your god now?
Asking for government help.
This Proves It : The U.S. State Dept. Is Lawless and Uncaring Towards Americans Present and Aboard.
Sorry, Haiti is a foreign country. Should we invade Haiti?
Praying all are returned safely home.🙏
Send money, much more effective.
No good deed goes unpunished
God bless them who give their life, love, and possessions for Jesus.
Luke 14:26 tells all.
Yet Brandon remains silent🙄
How long were the missionaries there? 2-5 weeks? Why couldn’t they leave the children home with family, they have large families? Lots of aunts and grandmas. Why is Biden willing to give money for these people when he wouldn’t for the Americans left in Afganistan. Some of them were probably christians too. Could it be because children are involved? Elites like children.
Hope that religious org has some quality insurance that isn’t underwritten by Uncle Sam.
Yes, a man is worth $500, a woman $200, and a child under 12, nothing.
O’Lord the mighty God of Israel whom brought us out of Egypt the house of bondage, hear your children cry for the enemies have infiltrated us and put our holy blood into their hands. I know you’re a vengeful God, may your wrath laid upon the heathens and Edom for the atrocities they have caused against your people in Haiti. Amen 🙏

# providing weapon for haitiens military now # Not foreign military to killed haitiens and pregnant they daughters.# haitiens military only .
400 “mawozo” it’s creole for 400 ducks. wich means they don’t how to entertain a woman but they are the sweetest bills payers.
now the world knows how they find the money to do so.
Haiti 🇭🇹
Needs help
Sak pase!!!! UN.
Please help them stop the smugglers who ship the guns to Haiti, because Haitians don’t make guns. The kidnappers possess very heavy guns,, war guns.Where the guns are coming from please ? Let’s go to the source .
Who sold all these heavy guns to the kidnappers in Haiti, they probably fell from the sky. Let’s be real .
The haitian police and government
I dont get how i cant afford not even 1 gun how they got so many guns
So dangerous that a “reporter” from cnbc walks the streets unimpeded.
Another reason to keep these vile people out of the US.
I m haitian and i am deeply devastated and can’t wait for those missionary members to come home , i m in America benefit a fair live , so Americans must be respected and protected in haiti and everywhere in the world
there are billionaires in amerikkka but they cant give 17 million for their lives? we watch movies that gross millions like passion of christ , where is mel gibson
Send social workers to talk to them. Let’s go Brandon!
These missionaries came to this 3 world country to help build a school and churches and this is how they get paid?? By kidnapping them??? These gang members also have kidnapped ppl from the Dominican as welll… they deserve their brains exploted for being soo evil…. 5 children…. send the USA troops to do what they got to do…..
Injustice should not be negotiated!!!!!
What are they doing over Thier they know anything can happen they are messed up they put them selves in trouble an put US in a mess
