Biden-Harris admin warns Americans 'do not travel to Haiti' due to risk of kidnapping, sexual assault, murder
The Post Millennial ^ | 9/22/24 | Hayden Cunningham

Posted on 09/22/2024 3:13:53 PM PDT by CFW

The US Department of State has issued a Level 4 "Do Not Travel" advisory for Haiti due to widespread crime, including kidnapping, sexual assault, murder, and ransom demands.

The advisory highlights the country's deteriorating security situation, which has worsened since March when thousands of inmates escaped from two of Haiti's largest prisons after armed gangs stormed the facilities. Haiti has been under a state of emergency since then.

The State Department has urged US citizens to avoid travel to Haiti, citing rampant crime, civil unrest, and a severely limited healthcare system. Kidnappings are particularly rampant, with US citizens among the victims, and some have been injured or killed.

“Protests, demonstrations, and roadblocks are common and unpredictable. They often damage or destroy infrastructure and can become violent. Mob killings and assaults by the public have increased, including targeting those suspected of committing crimes,” the State Department said.

Due to the increasing danger, the US government's ability to assist citizens in Haiti is severely limited. Local police also lack the resources to respond to emergencies effectively within the country.

“Local police also lack the resources to respond to emergencies effectively..”

They’ve got plenty of resources, they just lack the political will, leadership and brains.

"Biden-Harris admin warns Americans 'do not travel to Haiti' due to risk of kidnapping, sexual assault, murder"

.... Let me get this straight ..... The administration is telling us NOT to go to Haiti because it is too dangerous there ....... While at the same time they are telling the unvetted, violent and dangerous folks in Haiti to come on up to America. ....... OK .... Makes sense ....Got it ...

They haven’t cleared enough jails and mental institutions and sent them to us yet. That will bring peace to their country.

Well. Haiti should be significantly safer now since Biden and Harris have allowed large numbers into the US and distributed them around the nation.

One of the janitors at the World Lubavitch Headquarters at 770 Eastern Parkway in New York was not only Haitian, but also a follower of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, though not Jewish. He asked the Rebbe for a blessing for his father who was deathly ill and in never-ending pain. The Rebbe gave him a blessing, and his father died three days later, and the janitor thanked the Rebbe profusely, and carried the Rebbe’s picture in his wallet from then on. He’s an old man now, perhaps passed away, but in case he’s still around, I’ll keep his name under my hat so that he doesn’t get unwanted attention.

“””Black Hebrew Israelites”””

In the 90s I wrote them for their full information packet, it had a booklet/pamphlet, pictures, and a cassette.
