@@user-xq5hj2be1c why do ypou think?when they revolted against france , france told them that they owed them 90m then shortly after the us walk in and steal 500milion worth of gold which is 13b in today's time use your head do you really think that has no eefect on a country?
*500, 000 That's still millions of dollars in todays money, but there's a difference. Yeah. Hawaii, and other Pacific islands, / Caribbean islands were terribly abused by the US prior to WW2. I hope the US population can become more aware of such atrocities their government committed, and become more open to providing aid without military intervention. They do it for Israel. They do it for Ukraine. They could 100% do it for Haiti. The US, and other foreign powers are a large contributor to why Haitian politics are so corrupt. Yes, the Haitians hold some accountability for the state of their country, but the US can't act blameless when they shamelessly robbed the poor country multiple times in the past as "compensation" for their aid.
Now I understand why my dad refuses to become an American citizen. I heard him mention the occupation before as a reason but I never looked into it until now. The more I learn about the US the more horrible things I find out that they've done to others and to their own people.
Good, bc it’s biased and revisionists. The US was already a rich country and didn’t need to steal anything. People like to talk about US taking Haitian gold but never mention prior US loans to Haiti purely to try to help ease the paying France situation and ward off continued foreign (ie European meddling) in the country. In 1910 Germans controlled 80% of Haitian trade. Hardly any Germans lived in Haiti but land and ports were effectively under German imperial control. It’s very sad that today the popular narrative begins with US imperialist pigs stole $500K gold bars from Haiti - fail to mention it was after the Taft Administration OK'd a $6 Million dollar loan in 1910 to help Haiti out of its growing re-colonization . Then, after 7 Haitian leaders in a few short years were either assassinated or deposed, the country rife with corruption and theft by the elites, AND still Germany, ginning up to WWI while extending its sphere of influence consuming control of so much of Haiti, started buying up land and establishing ports to extend their influence, Wilson then sent in the Marines. American foreign policy in Latin America has always been imperfect at best, in the best possible examples, to horrendous, immoral and unjust in a few of the worst examples, but the kids today only take away “US robbed Haiti blind after murdering, raping and reenslaving Haitians in decades of colonization and atrocity” is an atrocious version of events and gross retellings of history will never make the world a better place.
@@rbrookeb Biased? Like your response? LOL The US literally had soldiers killing innocent people, o by the way I love how you conveniently forget that is was the Germans who were helping paying the loans. The US has no Business in Haiti deploying racist soldiers and installing brutal dictators
@@rbrookebLol so the SAME america that had slaves and killed many black people and raped them and wiped out their history is the same america that gave loans to haiti go help pay their debt back to their slave owners ? 😅😂 go do your history seriously. And stop being easily fooled. If they helped haiti explain why they had to kill so many haitians ???

This 19 year history of the US in Haiti, which started 110 years ago, is the best reason for the US to stay out of Haiti now. It is obvious there is no way for there to be a relationship with the US which is beneficial to Haiti.
All our ennemis Jerovah The only High Creator God sees and knows them all. We have already delivered. We will search one day for our ennemis and they will be no more, signed by Palms 37 in Jesus Christ Mighty Name this shall come to pass said THE LORD. Our Father Creator God already at the door coming to rescue all that belong to HIM. Those they have labeled black people, HAITIAN PEOPLE are not simply that but THEY ARE THE APPLES OF GOD’S EYES ❤😊
To make it worse, most African-Americans, Haitians, and the African diaspora don't even know that Haiti lost its sovereignty and independence during this time in 1915. My new book covers USA’s degrading foreign policies and treatment of Haitis . New book, “America's & France's 1,000 Year World War Against #Haiti (Ayiti): The Assassination of a Nation” ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6ka-6bZL5Ug.html
Nothing. This guy want to push his narrative. In fact rhe "occupation" is the initiative of a Rear Admiral who act against order and reestablish Order in the Haitian capital.
Truly monstrous how our country marches on a banner of justice, equality, n freedom while stomping on the rights of weaker countries. The number of lives lost due to greed, racism, and politics is staggering. Today we see those same bigots and liars subverting democracy here in our own backyard. What can you expect from people who believe " might is right?"
