The architects of this catastrophe.....

Haiti has been “free” from Colonialism and Slavery for over 200 years, longer than any other Western Country.

Of all the North and South American Countries, and the Caribbean, they have the LEAST claim to this cliche.

You cannot build a modern society when the population has a median IQ under 85.

You especially cannot expect civilization in a failed state where people are only fed because of foreign aid (most of which only serves to enrich the local warlords), like with Haiti and Gaza.

[SauronOfMordor]

Gaza median IQ is 85

Does Haiti have ANY remaining natural resources upon which to start building an economy and infrastructure? Or have they used up, cut down and eaten or burned everything there?
The Dominican Republic shares the island? What are they doing right that Haiti is doing wrong?

[Tell It Right]

Haiti needs a spiritual great awakening. It's one thing for the slaves to revolt against their masters and start a new country. It's another thing to have the moral integrity our country inherited from the church movements before us (the 1st and 2nd Great Awakenings). It's available to them just like everybody else.

Unfortunately, the left is doing everything it can to take us away from what's most responsible for making us a great civilization.

Compare Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Two countries, side by side on the same island.

DR is functional, with a per-capita GDP nearly 5 times that of Haiti, while Haiti is not functional.

DR has a critical mass of white people, and mixed race people.

AND the DR has a big WALL.

Whether Donald Trump actually used that word to describe Haiti rests on hearsay so I would consider it unproven. Not that I would be surprised if he had done so...but he never said it in public.

The Haitian Revolution contributed to Napoleon's decision to sell the Louisiana Territory to the US, so that benefited us. On the other hand, the savage massacre of the whites in Haiti made it harder to contemplate emancipation in the US.

A country dedicated to demons and the Clinton’s are drawn to it like moths to a flame.

I looked on satellite, and could make out what appeared to be a wall between cities. But in the open countryside I detected no walls.

Thanks. It looks like they are working their way out from the heavily populated areas and farmland, into the rugged terrain. Good for them.

I want one too! :-)

It is a country and a civilization they actively have been trying to destroy by, among other means, fomenting lawlessness and disorder through pro-crime policies such as the defunding of police departments, no-cash bail, criminal justice reform, the decriminalization of shoplifting, and sanctuary cities. Add to this the left’s support for the violent anarchy of Black Lives Matter, Antifa, and pro-Hamas Jew-haters; the justification of looting as “reparations”; the relentless aggravating of racial animosity; the push for “equity” and “restorative justice”; and a half-century of successful assaults on such cultural institutions of stability as the nuclear family, religious faith, and national pride, and you have a nation brought to the brink of civilizational failure.

You are here.
