One hopes not. We've already got enough problems with the southern border. We don't need a Haiti version of the Mariel boatlift happening too.

There is nothing there to blow up or take.

Maybe the U.S. could do an mega-billion $$ reconstruction project in Haiti...and then go to war and blow it up.

Haiti. HAHAHAHAHA!
A thriving, prosperous island nation UNTIL control of the nation was given back to the locals. Right now I wouldn’t give you $3,000 for the entire island.

Haiti is in a worse phase than ever, which is sad. What is interesting is that, despite long-term resistance to “external occupation”, many in Haiti are begging, “please come back in and help restore order”. But they are adding, “please have it be troops from just the US and maybe Mexico. We don’t really want any of those UN troops from far away places.” Interesting who gets turned to when the chips are down. Many US missionaries still help in Haiti too (not sure if they still can get in and out of where they are helping and whether their churches are still arranging missions).

They helped put that rap singer in as President but he did not turn out any better than the rest of them. Before him, Aristide was the peoples’ big hope but he came to depend on drug runners, if not directly involved himself. Hard to figure out what can work. What is weird is the best semi-recent times in Haiti were probably during Baby Doc, even though he milked the country dry himself. I visited once when his father Papa Doc was still President and was constantly followed around by secret police. But LOTS of beauty in that country just the same.

About 1,000,000 mainly in North Miami and Ft Lauderdale area. Another 1,000,000 mainly around New York.

Look up Haiti on wikipedia.
An awful history.
France strangled them with debt for a hundred+ years.

Biden would disagree. In fact he’d tell you our border is secure. I often imagine getting the opportunity to punch Biden in the temple and watching him fall to his knees dead.

Also, classic Franz Fanon type scenario where the post independence elite were as bad as the original colonizers and have milked resources and riches for themselves, still fairly true to this day. Also, a ghetto type gang banger reality has set in within the poorest communities, like a genie let loose from the bottle.
Under the Duvalier dictatorships, the state police terrorized the entire nation, resulting in a semblance of order. Now the state police seem powerless and allow the criminal gangs full control in much of the geography. As a result, the call among some Haitians for US troops to come into the country to help restore order.

This article argues that when the US has intervened in Haiti, even with the best of intentions, we end up propping up a faction of elites that more or less operates like the street gangs do, simply corruption dressed up in better clothes. But then how in the hell to help? Many would say just leave them to their own devices.

Tommywishbone could invade Haiti and conquer it in a weekend. Just give him some Anadrol and a full McDonald’s bag, and he’ll get it done all while laughing the entire time covered in blood

Why? Do ya think perhaps shouldn’t have long ago slaughtered the French whites who made the country for them?
From Hesketh Prichard’s A Journey Across and About Hayti:
"Suffice it to say that . . . [Hayti's] best president was Geffrard, a mulatto, and that the dictatorship of her Black heads of state always has been marked by a redder smear than usual upon the page of history. The better, the wiser, the more enlightened and less brutalized class has always been composed of the mulattos, and the Blacks have recognized the fact and hated the mulatto element accordingly. But to pass from the earlier days of independence to more recent times: we had not long ago the savage rule of President Salomon, a notorious sectary of snake worship, beneath whose iron hand the country groaned for years, and public executions, assassinations, and robbery were the order of the day. And at the present time? Today in Hayti we come to the real crux of the question. At the end of a hundred years of trial how does the black man govern himself? What progress has he made? Absolutely none.”

Don’t paint me in a box. I am not so simplistic as to blame it all on colonizers (even the debt to France) or to believe that the presence of US marines 80 years ago has much to do with it. I do think a highly corrupt elite class (mulatto AND black) which outsiders have no choice but to more or less deal with does have a lot to do with it. It’s a neighbor island right next door to us with a lot of beauty and an interesting culture. People care or don’t care in different ways. There are many thoughtful and honest people within Haiti who desperately care about the future of their country (again both Black AND mulatto citizens) and who are rooting for eventual rule of law. Ditto many Haitian Americans in or around New York or Miami who have family there and dutifully send money. Evangelical Christians from the US have continued to be missionaries there even in the toughest times to run schools, etc. Lots of other non-profits too.
I intellectually think we probably should not go in from a government standpoint, but I know myself well enough to know that I could easily be talked into a revived Marine presence to help restore order with the right arguments.

Of course the French aren’t to blame. They gave the blacks a made country.
You’d want us to go there for a fourth or fifth (I lost count) time in the last century, only for it to fall back into squalor again after leave?
I’m not putting you in a box. I’m simply astonished by many Americans’ irrational altruism.

Your statement about colonization (based on slavery in this case) is too one sided and simplistic but I will grant you that the direction of my altruism may be irrational.

Tempted to read it as it probably gives clues from over 100 years ago. One excerpt I just found: “The Dominicans are nowhere near as likeable as the Haitian peasantry and there is nowhere near the level of hospitality in the Dominican Republic as you find in Haiti.” So whatever his conclusions, he did seem to “care” about the people.

Quote from the chapter, can the Negro Rule Himself:
"The present condition of Hayti gives the best possible answer to the question, and, considering the experiment has lasted for a century, perhaps also a conclusive one. For a century the answer has been working itself out there in flesh and blood. The Negro has had his chance, a fair field, and no favor. He has had the most beautiful and fertile of the Caribbees for his own; he has had the advantage of excellent French laws; he inherited a made country, with Cap Haitien for its Paris. Here was a wide land sown with prosperity, a land of wood, water, towns and plantations, and in the midst of it the Black man was turned loose to work out his own salvation. What has he made of the chances that were given to him?"

Thanks, I will read it, especially for an understanding of what Haiti looked like 120 years ago. However, bemoaning a perceived (or real) inability does not necessarily point to solutions. But I will give it a read. 120 years ago there would have still been trees on the ground and a manageable population level. Now there are 11 million people and one or two trees.

They've progressed it To absolute Waste & Shit - just like everywhere there's a large population of Them. Without the white Man's help & guidance they revert back to

Take all the people from Iceland and all the people from Haiti and have them trade places. Come back a year later and Haiti would be 1000X better and all the Haitians in Iceland would be dead.

Nubainian puhleeeeze. Again. Just because your mind can't grasp anything except having your hands grasp another mongoloid by the buttocks doesn't mean anything but that you are patently stooooopid.
Think about it. It must surely be painful to be as retarded as you. As a child I had my skull caved in by black folk but I do not lump all black people in with those idiots.
So quit trying to make me change my mind on that. Barrel boy.

Abyssinia was under Italian control for 5 years and part of the Impero italiano, but is 'officially' considered one of the African countries which weren't colonised.
Because the government and leadership fled and continued to 'rule in exile', they aren't considered to have been colonised, even though in reality they were. Personally I consider them as a colonised country.
Anyway, look how great 'uncolonised' Ethiopia turned out :D

Africa's main problem seems to be the uncontrollable breeding of the worst Africa has to offer. Western funding of low quality food made this even worse. The only crime Europeans are guilty of was trying to establish European ideals with people that are genetically incompatible with them. Also infighting of Euros in Africa was a grave mistake destroying anything good some other Euros had established.
