The Real Reason the US is Invading Haiti w/ Dr. Jemima Pierre


“ The US is moving forward with its plans to invade Haiti by way of a UN-backed police force led by Kenya. The intervention was postponed after Haiti’s unelected prime minister Ariel Henry resigned in March but CARICOM's recent appointment of a 'transitional council' has revived the plans. Dr. Jemima Pierre, Professor of Global Race in the Institute of Race, Gender, Sexuality and Social Justice (GRSJ) at the University of British Columbia and a member of Black Alliance for Peace, discusses Haiti’s newest puppet leaders and why foreign intervention is not the solution to the deepening crisis in the country.”

Haiti's real crisis isn't gangs—it's foreign occupation w/Jafrik Ayiti

“The drumbeat of intervention is rolling once again for Haiti. Since last year, plans have been laid for a US-sponsored intervention in Haiti, nominally led by Kenya, ostensibly in the name of fighting "gang violence" in the Caribbean nation. While corporate media has breathlessly pushed the narrative of a lawless Haiti overrun by criminal organizations, such framing deliberately excludes the role of the US and its allies in the so-called Core Group in destabilizing Haiti over the past 20 years in particular—not to mention the past two centuries since Haiti's independence. Quebec-based activist Jafrik Ayiti joins The Real News to help set the record straight on Haiti's history, and how the social disorder splattered across the front pages of Western media outlets has been manufactured by the very governments now calling for intervention.”

After creating massive displacement, now receiving reports from gang strongholds in the capital that Viv Ansanm is forcing people to stay put. "They threatened us when we tried to leave and accused us of planning Bwa Kale" said one resident of lower Delmas.
Another resident in Solino said he hopes the gangs won't use them as human shields when the Kenyans arrive, "What can we do if they won't let us leave and force us to stand between the guns of the foreigners and their own guns?" A Haitian security expert consulting with PNH commented, "it's one of the main reasons the police can't just go in there shooting. There have already been enough civilian casualties." He also made clear it might not make a difference as the biggest fear of the gangs is that the arrival of foreign troops might trigger a mass Bwa Kale uprising against the gangs, resulting in carnage either way. "It could be another dechoukaj like after the fall of Duvalier, and the gangs would either fall or have to commit massacres against the people." Now folks say gang leaders are beginning to panick, counting bullets, stocking up on food and water as activity at the airport and surrounding area picks up. A large number of armored vehicles were unloaded to the tarmac from a US C-5 transport and driven to an unknown location.

“There’s a last-gasp effort to stop Kenyan police being sent to Haiti. Around 1,000 are due to go to help ‘restore order’ and the first 200 are expected to arrive next week.

However, a legal team from a Kenyan opposition party says President Ruto is in breach of a High Court ruling. They’ve now submitted another court application after Judges previously declared the mission unconstitutional. Despite that, Ruto pushed ahead with the plan and signed a deal with Haiti’s then-prime minister Ariel Henry in March.

Human rights groups have condemned the deployment, saying previous interventions were disastrous for Haiti. Washington is promising to pay Nairobi $100m for sending its officers. US forces will also build a base on the Island to accommodate them.”

How The West Underdeveloped Haiti​



What are the roots of Haiti’s prolonged crisis? Haitian-American scholar Jemima Pierre takes us through the history of how the West underdeveloped the country, from French colonial looting and debt slavery to US invasions and imperialism. Far from being a “poor country” locked in a cycle of violence, Haiti has been systematically destroyed by Western powers precisely because of its wealth and geopolitical importance. From the sugar plantations to the so-called “gang violence” of today, this is Haiti’s story.

In 2015, according to DEA whistleblower Keith McNichols, Jimmy "Barbecue" Cherizier was working for a drug trafficking cartel and tried to kill the one cooperating witness in the Manzanares case, in which some of Haiti's wealthiest families, the Mevs and Acras, were implicated.

Kenyan forces will be on the ground in Haiti this week as part of a new US-led invasion. SOUTHCOM: "I'm just really excited to get started (..) We've been flying military aircraft there to get the material on the ground to build up the logistics that are required for the Kenyans to be able to operate.." "We'll be ready to go on the 23rd of May."
