Gates should have been air dropping supplies en mass 4 days ago.
So the networks could capture the rioting and fighting as desperate people teared into those supplies or, oops, some supplies landed on slow-moving refugees.
The only place our soldiers should be is where our civilians are. Protecting haitians from haitian bandits is not our job. protecting american volunteers from haitian bandits isn’t really our job either, but considering the situation I think its prudent.
