    So much emphasis on guns and on the fact that the guns were manufactured in the USA. Newsflash: 99% of guns (large and small caliber) in the Caribbean come from the USA. There will still be gang violence without the large caliber guns. So much focus on "gun violence", not so much on violence itself. Haitians are pretty good with the machete. Obsessing about high-caliber guns is a red herring. Gangs. Some naive commentators think this is a recent thing. Nope. Militant gangs have been around since the beginning of Haiti's history. Back in the late 1800's said gangs are called "cacos". Often the caco's will settle in tents on the grounds in front of the National Palace either in support of or opposition to the president. Under Duvalier, you had the Tonton Macoutes. Under Aristide, you had the Chimères, some of whom were former Tonton Macoutes. Violent men, men with guns and machetes do not fade away and take up knitting. Gangs. They are bankrolled (to a degree) by politicians or "oligarchs". I say "to a degree" since there has been a lot of kidnappings (hundreds of them). The oligarchs and politicians are not paying enough. The oligarchs and their families are not the kidnap victims because they have their own security details. Who are these kidnap victims? Business owners? Government workers with private transportation (SUV owners being preferred targets)? Do the gangs have an extortion scheme (à la Mafia) with the business class? One of the gang leaders, Mr Chérisier, alluded to receiving funds from the Haitian diaspora. What is the estimation of annual remittances from the Haitian-American community to Haiti? Gangs. Gang members do not live in remote caves. Gangs have support of their communities. Gangs defend - ferociously - the boundaries of their fiefdom within which the gangs try to offer minimal services such as sanitation, water, and stolen electric power. And amongst the gangs there must be some sort of code of conduct. Some rule must have been violated for some gang members to be killed by the street. Vigilantism? Maybe. Maybe not. Are there regular vigilante patrols? Bwa Kale. Yep. I see some naive commentators being enthusiastic about "Bwa Kale". When some journalist mentioned "Bwa Kale" to Mr Chérisier, he just smiled and shrugged his shoulders; he is not fully onboard with this "Bwa Kale" and rightfully so. Mr Chérisier remembered well the time of déchoukage under Arisitde, a favorite of the Western Left.

I mean the guest called them such several times... _actors_ ... and it seems very plausible that that is indeed what they are.... paid actors to build the set that the media presents in order to _stage_ whatever outcome they desire. But they will NOT prevail!!!

    Blaming Haiti's rice imports on forced decreased rice tariffs from 50% to 3% (in the Dominican Republic the rice tariff is 20%) to be a bit misplaced. Haiti Imports, by year (A) = total($B); (B) = Petrol($M); (C) = Fabrics ($M); (D) = Palm Oil ($M); (E) = Wheat ($M); (F) = Rice ($M); (G) = Cars ($M); (H) = Poultry Meat ($M); (I) = Sugar($M); Year_______(A)______(B)______(C)_______(D)_____(E)_____(F)_______(G)_____(H)______(I) 2018_____4.18_____317______391_____118_____106_____254_____121_____100_____87 2019_____3.84_____292______384_____111_____143_____237______77_____103_____85 2020_____3.75_____240______294_____147_____108_____297_____129_____101____103 2021_____4.12_____295______413_____168_____112_____248_____170_____156____109 2022_____5.93_____525______275_____126_____160_____256_____126_____112_____91 A lot of focus on rice. The US is the major source of rice to Haiti. However one overlooks Haiti's deficits in Palm Oil, Poultry, Sugar: are the Clintons making money off these commodities? Haitian rice production has remained essentially steady since the 1970s, at around 70,000 tons/yr. There were peak production of 90,000 tons in 1985, of 80,000 tons in 1996, 77,000 tons in 2011. Year 2011 is interesting for the cholera outbreak in Haiti happened in the Artibonite Valley (rice growing region) on Oct 2020. Meanwhile, rice imports started to grow in 1985 at 700 tons (same time as Haiti's peak rice production), to 80,000 tons in 1990, to 150,000 tons in 1995, growing gradually to 300,000 tons in 2015. The forced (by Clinton Administration) tariff decrease to 3% evidently had NO effect on Haiti rice production. There is no way to boost Haiti's rice production 4-fold (= 300,000/70,000). At no point in history had Haiti produced 300,000 tons of rice annually. One has to look at the range of food crops in Haiti and food consumption in Haiti.

    Good morning do you know about the biblical Revelation talks about the 7 seals and the peace that will taken from the earth, and cause mankind to kill one another with the sword, the economic woes, plagues e.t.c the Red horse, black horse, and pale greenish horse, only the man Jesus Christ riding on the white horse come to conquer the conqueror of his conquest.king Jesus, and the beast power that will soon rise where god will gave them over to the power of the beast to rule the world, because of human disobey god, and all this will be a great punishment on ungodly people and unjust governments.therefore god chosen true and faithful christian will not bow to obey the Beast or the Antichrist power, but would rather submitted their souls to death for god and his son Jesus and his holy angels, these will be testing times ahead I'm from Jamaica god bless the souls in christ.for his kingdom reign heaven the new Jerusalem on a new earth.
