We can’t fight all the wars
make haiti a new state
We are not fighting a war there, we are securing our embassy and getting our people out of there.
Facts like do the USA mind they business w anything 😂
@@menkevin Still sending combat troops Biden has troops everywhere
I lost count
How many wars is Biden funding?
Russia China Iran Brazil. Please help us. Please 🙏.
ewwww even worse!
Quit your delusions. The USA would never allow hostile troops from Russia and China at their doorstep.
Not going to happen, forget it.
Lol
Stop sending our ppl to these places… and stop sending them here
So don’t have a embassy got it
@@KILLKING110 is that what the comment said? But also.. good point.. don’t have one🤣
@@KILLKING110 I would suggest not if they’re “bbqing” ppl in the streets lol
@@Deezcutz2024 😂 shy you people always play victim
@@2ndAmendmentMF I’m not ɓĺk hun🤣🤣
The US is invading HAITI, the gangs is an excuse
Now that’s an insurrection! Barbecue shows our fake news how its done.
Probably sent RECON Marines which is serious. Also, how is the Dominican Republic able to live side by side next to Haiti. That’s literally like Egypt next to Gaza.
Never could figure that out myself. You never hear about the DR having these sorts of problems.
They deployed a FAST (Fleet Anti-terrorism Security Team) Unit.
2 reasons – 1. DR secures the border and 2 the border is very mountainous – not an easy transit
The dominican republic is the only country and the world that has a Bible and cross and its flag ..we don’t worship the devil
Amen @@jcwatts5000
That island has received billions and billions of dollars and innumerable man hours of volunteering for over 50 years. It changed nothing, it’s worse today than it was then.
Where did the earthquake money go?
No amount of money can raise IQ or give morality
It takes more then throwing money at a problem to fix it. There needs to be an actual solution.
@@silentmajority8365 There is no difference in intelligence between Haiti or any other nation. Also let’s not pretend that Haiti is any less moral than any other country. Education levels are an issue to some extent but that’s very different from intelligence. There isn’t a moral issue in Haiti. There is a stability issue. Instability causes conflict not immorality.
Blame it on their society.
What a completely worthless society.
This has been going on for a year in know the u.s. sends troops what a joke
Seems like most of the troops are headed towards the embassy in case of emergencies.
Apparently you don’t know the history of Haiti and US involvement. ☝️🤡
America has its own problems …
Leave the US embassy to fend for themselves??
From div ersity
The troops are there to protect American citizens. Not to wage a war.
@@alligatorsam5357Why do we need an embassy there? What value does Haiti contribute to the world besides their human meat recipes?
@@datguy3581 So they will not return fire?
Sounds like military action to me
I lost count how many places with US troops or funding during Biden
They let Iran take hostages
they let those in Benghazi die
So Haiti is different?
Do the United States know what M.Y.O.B means ? I got our own problems , mass shootings , homeless ,homicides etc need to fix before try fix another country
Thay are just partying haiti styl yo.
Roflmfao, kinda like you “help” in gaza? Okay 👍 lbcoz everyone in the world knows how much america loves to help (themselves to their resources) foreign minorities right? 😂
Just bring all American workers home if u can get soldiers in u can get Americans out
FYI, you are not welcome in the US. NO VACANCY!!
Those picture of Hati looks like our inner cities…
🏃🏿🏃🏿🏃🏿🏃🏿🏃🏿🏃🏿🏃🏿🏃🏿
Same people
You’ve never been in an American inner city then.
Yeah, real cute, ALL inner cities are filled with 🏃🏿🏃🏿🏃🏿🏃🏿🏃🏿🏃🏿🏃🏿🏃🏿 just a hooting and hollering @@josephteller9715

Haiti GDP has nearly doubled in recent years. But obviously, they weren’t feeling it. Because they don’t seem too happy. Unbridled Free market world economy meets uneducated low paid ‘captive’ workers. Who really can’t just leave the island. It’s an economic problem. And no matter who they elect, democracy won’t solve their problems. Only the companies that exploit them can.
Who wants them to leave their island? We have enough low skilled uneducated people now. 😂
Nothing to see here just another typical black ran country.
Why isn’t Greta Thunberg there? There’s serious damage to the environment being committed. How dare these gangs burn tires and get away with it.
Stay safe boyz
Im tired of hearing about this barbq guy… hes just a whimp with a machine gun.. how hard is he to get rid of…
Well… his replacement will pop up unless the root cause for the mayhem is dealt with.
@@ProudMurtad thats true..but just make a powerful government
@@victorthomas5464Than we gotta send aide to help keep that Goverment stable.My only problem with that is that the government gets too powerful where they start tyranny and than we get blame for that later again.
He is a freemason he is the club’s guy who they are backing
@@user-ge5vf5md7r i agree
So before you leave your house rip up the electricity gives marines an advantage theyd have to be quieter
Biden building back better ?
We need Trump back NOW!
Barbecue a boy
Not our problem
The troops are going to our embassy and securing American citizens. That’s why they’re there.
There are American citizens in Haiti so it is our problem
Says who? You have no power or authority to decide that.
@@cswbizberri4532 AS an American we have free speech and to an opinion
Biden will create WW3
trump will be Hosting Haitis trump. BBQ At Mara Largo. Henyard trump 2024.
🔥🇺🇸🔥
Our next election
we the 🤡💙
The US Marine Corps is all that is left that makes the US great. The Army is a joke
If you want to visit Haiti, now is the time. Cheap hotels, no government to tell you what you can’t do, local delicacy Mud Cakes made from real mud, and BBQ.
The BBQ is made of people!
I think we can take in some refugees. It’s the least we can do. The economy is great now. There’s more then enough room in America.
Guy Philippine the people asking for as Haïti président
Cary com is rejected by the Holl people because Cary com say that Guy Philippe can’t be Haiti president
America will be Haiti in 5 years
Jamaica is very interesting while The Dominion Republic is not a member strong ties are cool. It’s time to become a member of the strongest alliance currently.
😂 bro we been dealing with this for decades and the only people who should take care of Haitians is Haitians and that’s facts
You don’t know the history between the two countries, DR.,is one of the countrie that helped the neighbor ,free hospital, school.
@@feliciagonzalez9144 The Dominion Republic feat. Jamaica so I guess you don’t know geography.
@@jcwatts5000 bro 😂 doing a poor job and if that’s the case we shouldn’t need to support.
@@feliciagonzalez9144 While this may be true to education and advancement the economy is poor because of inner wars. Now sense y’all wanna support yourselfs end these wars and become competition.
Why,we need to mind our own business.
They’re largely there to protect the embassy and evacuate American citizens
Send Pakistan military in there. They are Very good at fighting gangs and civilians.

😂That stings 🐝….( I’m at a loss, the world needs a “Solution “)
One day we will find Wakanda
It takes a revolution to find a solution famous words by Bob Marley.
great another US intervention. can’t you stop playing hero and let haiti handle their problem and learn?
The troops primary objective is to get American citizens out and to protect embassy workers. They’re not going to get directly involved in the war.
@@datguy3581the government issued a no travel advisory July 27 2023. Plenty of time to leave the dumpster before the fire started.
“Haiti is great already” -Conan O’Brian
There is a lot of interesting culture and tradition in Haiti. The government, on the other hand, needs some work.
Voodoo nation
What about the children? Who’s watching them? Will u send help?
2004 coup all over again USA can’t help its meddling
The prime minister already stepping down.There are already refugees fleeing.Gonna have to have to calm everything back down to stable and than keep sending aide to help keep it stable…Than it might happen again.
Bbq?
He’s the Haitian gang leader. Rumours on the street are that he earned his nickname setting his opponents on fire. He says he got the nickname because his Mom earned her living selling fried chicken as a street vendor.
Haiti: massive amount of Guns and Ammo but Not enough food, fresh water, or proper satiation? Here’s a secret, if your women, children, and the elderly not safe, secure, and well taken care of in any country, MONEY, BUSINESSES, AND INVESTMENTS WILL NOT FEEL SAFE, SECURE, AND WELL TAKEN CARE OF IN ANY COUNTRY🤣🤣🤣🤣🙄
Huh?
Send the Haitians to Florida and New York. California is full.
We send U.S. Marines to Haiti but not to our own border???
Because the threat at the border is largely imaginary while there are American citizens in Haiti who are in active danger of being killed in gang violence.
haha they are not fighting a war. they are securing american citizen and embassy then they will leave..
@@markchristianramirez7202 Why don’t they secure American citizens by defending our border from the invasion of millions of illegals?
Also, because Democrat politicians want illegal aliens to come to our country, where they will eventually become Democrat voters.
@@markchristianramirez7202 there is no war on our border.
When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail – US only sees solutions militarily. But on a larger picture, this is a simple problem, reaction, solution strategy of American intelligence to gain entry to strategic Haiti.
It doesn’t seem like the US troops will get directly involved. They seem to be there to evacuate American citizens and protect the embassy.
Sooo, we dont deploy at our borders but you send Call of duty to haiti??? UNBELIEVABLE 🤦♂️as backwards as anything can be. And what business is it of america?? Why do we keep getting involved in external affairs?? These only like america to benefit their own countries.
All that Iridium lol. That’s why we’re gonna make sure to always be there 😂
The Marines are going to a BBQ?
We don’t need foreign intervention. We can do it ourselves financially and socially 👑👑
Skinnys everywhere
We allowed US gun manufacturers to flood Haiti with weapons like Mexico. Then we wonder why these countries are in turmoil.
It is not in the geopolitical interest of the United States, Canada and European countries to see a prosperous Haiti. A black liberated nation.
Furthermore:
Haiti is like a rebel child. Haiti always gets stuck in the throats of the United States, France & Canada and other regional carribean countries.
America has never helped nor attempt to allow Haiti to make its own political future. Despite America has been highly involved in Haiti’s politics. And having the largest U.S Embassy in the carribean inside of Haiti.
There are 16K thousands NGOs operating in Haiti, ripping and extorting the country’s wealth and resources. These NGOs tied the mouths of politicians and bureaucrats, and the NGOs don’t contribute or build anything in the country.
Though U.S & allies spend 10s of billions over the past of 50 years. For every 1 dollar the U.S & allies spend on Haiti, they will collect 10 to 20 dollars back in return.
For those who have been in Haiti. Right in the capital, there is this biggest CITIBANK branch, probably the most secured citibank I’ve seen. Haitian citizens cannot do business in the bank unless you a corporate entity NGOs…
Soooooo…. Trump war right 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The French government is responsible give back the money you stole from the Haitian
Naw Macron wants to invade Russia, that worked so well the last time
Can we help Americans here in the US?!
Already is done on a daily basis, its known as normal civilian life. You want it better, get the Republicans out of the House before they plunge us into an economic collapse and run away with everything of value on their super yachts.
We’re there to get Americans out of Haiti. Pay attention before you run your mouth…
Macron 😂😂😂😂🇨🇵✊️✊️✊️✊️✊️✊️🇷🇺🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🇷🇺
Not wanted there, but the U.S keeps showing there face. This has to play out for the Haitian people by them for them.
We’re securing our embassy and diplomats.
Who still get their news information on NBC. Are they playing this clip in a nursing home😮
Haiti can’t go to labor since 1804
Now Haiti needs a section because of the 1804
Kids better wake up. It just got real to have a weapon on you.
😂 THE LIFE OF GUY PHILIPP IS IN THE HANDS OF THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT HAITIAN PEOPLE WANT GUY AS PRESIDENT. RESPECT THE WICH OF THE SOUVERAIN COUNTRY
Terrifying place
Mitch gets better and better as time goes on. A really solid human being.
NOT OUR PROBLEM
get out of that place
I bet Biden is going to invite them here on a red carpet and put them up in luxury hotels too
U.S. needs to stay out of this conflict.
Why are we funding our military if they aren’t going to do anything? I support their involvement. It’s cruel to let this madness go on. Somebody must step in.
@@L32C-yg9hm Life is cruel and messy!! America is broke. 34 Trillion and counting!! IT takes 17% of our GDP just to manage interest!! Biden is destroying America
Haiti the island not worth saving
Bill Clinton – Sean Penn – Wycliff …I guess they will just sit this one out
Let the Haitians figure it out for themselves
Selassie would have wanted Jamaicans to be better neighbors.
Send in the Blackhawks. 🚁
Guy is just… Recording someone behind him on the Plane as This goes on.
Getting involved where we don’t need to be
They are getting Americans OUT of Haiti. Thats what Marines do. Armed Evac.
That sounds like an over there problem.
Why is every 🏃🏿ran Country in chaos?
War number 5?
Remember Benghazi, Hillary Clinton???
Let me guess…. more asylum seekers?
Nah let them fight there own battle
I don’t know too much about geopolitics but there been sending a couples Marines since few weeks ago, probably BBQ will be on the grill soon
There comes a time when you have to throw your hands up and back out. I do think that all of the footage would make a great rap video
Well I was contemplating getting my rifle when I pick up my new pistol on Saturday! Well I guess I’m picking it up !
Amazing that woman was speaking in English, without a French accent.
