Op is 2023, this one is 2021

Now the question is do you take the man’s words at face value?

I struggle to see how you can call a unified coalition of armed groups fighting to depose the government “gang members”

Who the heck knows what’s going on here but the rhetoric speaks for itself, and CIA arming and funding of opposition militias would definitely not be unheard of.

I don’t know anything about the last pres who got assassinated before Henry (who is resigning today) took over in an “interim” capacity 3 or 4 years ago…

There is more to this story for sure imo, this is one to watch

Jimmy: I used to be a police officer, but grew disgusted with the corruption. Now I'm a revolutionary who wants to end the oligarchy and bring about a society in which the wealth is shared

Reporter: Damn! What does this guy want and where did he come from?! This enigma will continue to haunt Haiti! Did we mention his nickname is BBQ? Kinda sounds sinister, doesn't it?

Does every English speaking news show have to be this shit?

Hey at least they talked to the guy. Everything we’re seeing now is probably just verbatim copy from a state dept press release

Rewatching the 2023 vid it’s interesting that the analyst they interview says the gangs got their start as “mercenaries for politicians and the economic elite”

Blowback? 🤔

“Gang” and “Terrorist group” mean the exact same thing to amerikkka

“Gang” is just Central/South America and Caribbean flavor instead of Middle Eastern.
