The planet would be a much more peaceful place if the US would neither mess around with other countries nor have their military all over the place. Your country has so many domestic problems. Why don't you start solving those and leave us all alone? I would really appreciate it.
You're talking to the aristocrats of the US. And they'll never listen. The other 90% of us have absolutely no say in what goes on. Oh you thought we were a democracy? That's the first and most important thing the aristocrats do with their money, they brainwash everyone. First order of brainwash business? Make sure they're never called aristocrats - make sure people always call them the elite, so the plebeians feel like they are a successful version of themselves rather than detested peasants the aristocrats will continue to steal from as long as they can
The military industrial complex has "grown legs" as Trueman JFK and Eisenhauer all warned us and if not "run smok" is certainly in cahoots with "democraticly elected representatives" who enable it's requirement - if the price is right.😢
Well, if the USA controls most counties (plus organizations like the WTO, WHO, SWIFT etc.), then the oligarchs who own the USA (and those countries) can freely exploit all recourses and cash in big, thus increasing their power. And power is what psychopaths live for.
Destabilise the political system, install a puppet government, suck the country dry of resources and make it's currency dependent on the US Dollar. -The American way. They've done it with 100s of countries.
It's a mystery to me why we continue to regard countries like Haiti as "victims of neoliberalism". Equally puzzling is the term neoliberalism itself. Which in every regard is textbook fascism disguised as economics. My mother's family sacrificed two young men in WWII fighting fascism. My father lived a life of episodic PTSD to the day he died in 2012, the result of his efforts fighting fascism. There is nothing "neo" about neoliberalism. It is an extreme form of capitalism the likes of which the world saw in the 1930s resulting in the Great Depression, and it is the kind of capitalism in play during Hitler's rise to power and the advent of the world's greatest atrocities as part of the world's greatest obscenity - WWII. Let's stop apologizing for the international Oligarchs who are claiming digital technology and the "new economy" as their raison d'être. They are fascists without the Nationalist imperative and will continue to destroy the world while being given the friendly name of neoliberals. They must be crushed or we're all doomed.
Fascism uses the economic system of National Syndicalism (Corporatism) which is completely different from Capitalism because it is run by National Labor Unions.
It's not capitalism, if the government is in complete control of it. I think it's really funny how people can call themselves "national socialists" and people will still be like "capitalism is the problem! Capitalism so bad! Capitalism is muh root of all evil!"
I really appreciate these guys and thank them for telling the international community these truths about Jimmy Cérisier. The so-called human rights organization members in Haiti do too much politics. That is.one of the country's problems which stop Haiti going forward.
The elites in Haiti KNOW they would all be richer, healthier & more secure if they cleaned up the sewage, provided what ordinary Haitians need (clean water, sound houses, electricity, sewage treatment, food & education & allowed them to prosper, but that’s not what they want!

Chris, thank you so much for this another reportage for the books. You are a badge of honor to our Church, the Presbyterian Church USA. I am a retired Presbyterian minister who returned to Haiti from the US to be part of the solution. I hope to meet you some day. Thank you again.
Haiti is one of those places that I have been hearing about on the news since I was a kid. No one ever seems to have anything clear to say about it in the news though. Nice to hear some information from independent sources that were there for more than a sound bite.
It’s clear America and super powers has destroyed Haiti for the Haitian Revolution. It’s called , Propaganda, nothing more and certainly, nothing less.
It’s intentionally presented as unclear & ‘overly complicated’ because 1) clear, in-depth analysis would necessarily implicate actors like the U/S (incl its agencies, NGOs, and some ‘humanitarian aid’ organizations) very quickly; and 2) presenting disjointed, acontextual piecemeal stories every now and then allows the news (state med1a) to continue the air of journalism/care while covering for the U/S to an unknowing audience.
Not one of these damned Western powers has ever spent anything to: re-build houses: help with the provision of clean water, construct decent housing and improved infra structure...the only job provision being seat shop wages. Brave Jimmy!
It’s because Haiti has been suffering very much. The west doesn’t want Haiti to succeed because they were the first to kill white devil enslavers. Haiti will develop, they are still here aren’t they? That’s proof alone as the tide turns and the west dies without its colonial recourses.
There are so many countries that the United States has terrorized and tyrannized with C.I.A. facilitated coups, proxy wars, official wars, and murderous sanctions. Always causing unfathomable suffering and death for civilian populations. But Haiti's history perhaps stands alone as an example of the consequences a nation faces when resisting a continual onslaught of colonialism, neo-colonialism and tyranny by proxy. It's as if for the crime of waging the only successful slave rebellion in history Haiti is cursed by the exploitative powers (mostly the U.S.A. in the past century) of the West. There is an almost Biblical quality to the endless suffering that this nation has endured; even nature has seemingly been wrathful. Though when the climate crisis is related to the latter, it too originates with the exploitative powers.
Clintons, Obamas, Biden, and George Soros are the instigators in Haiti. When the slaves turned independent and went to Africa to establish Liberia, they built it up only to have indigenous Blacks killed them. The Climate hoax. It's a money grab.
Hmmm... that's funny, since the US became the one and only supper power, taking that title after sacrificing 420,000 American lives in WW2 to bring peace, the world has seen a reduction in poverty of 1.2 billion people, drastic reduction in global infant mortality, near eradication of smallpox and other once common diseases, longer life spans across the board in most countries, tens of billions spent on hospitals, schools, AIDS medicines and food to feed the poor in Africa and around the world, deaths due to wars may seem high but in actuality are historically low, environmental deaths have dropped by 90% and the list goes on and on. You see, America has allowed countries like Singapore and many others to develop their economy's rather than their military's because they know big brother is there to take the hit. The collective economies of the world have never seen a period in time more prosperous, with the lowest poverty rates, than what we experience currently. O' Haiti is cursed by ignorance and a peoples that find it difficult to govern themselves. It has nothing to do with the US as the US suffers dealing with their inabilities to rule that nation. It's a money pit. What is there to exploit from Haiti?
Great video. Haiti is a place where there is a universal language that everyone speaks and a small minority language that only 5-10 % know very well. However, in the case of Haiti, thus minority language is used against the majority to exclude them from power and empowerment. Everyone speaks Creole, only a small minority speaks French yet all the laws are written in French. The education, such as it is , when it exists, is mostly in French. Business is in French. The signage is mostly in French but Creole is the universal tongue. The day when French disappears from government, business, education and the media will be the day when the people will be empowered. French could be maintained for historical reasons but the only language of Haitian society should be the main language in the media , government, business, etc. It is all indicative of the caste system in Haiti. Of course , the language situation is arguably one of the least problems in a country where there is starvation , anarchy, cholera , lack of any opportunities, etc but it definitely is a symptom of what’s wrong with Haitian political class
@@jayattipoe6597 The one great problem of Rwanda as a template for Haiti is the fact that Kagame has always enjoyed the firm support of the US. In Rwanda , France and the US are/were at loggerheads . Indeed, Kagame even replaced French with English as the language of administration, something that irked France. In Haiti, France and the US are definitely on the same page. The Haitian state has been torn down by the US (now run by NGOs) while the Rwandan state has been strengthened. The Haitians made the horrendous mistake of electing someone the US did not want not once but twice: Aristide. Whatever flaws he might have, he talked about giving some power to the Haitian masses, he even supported strengthening the role of the Creole language . Can’t have that!
@@jayattipoe6597nly problem is that that "amazing" job in Rwanda is built and kept on the back of D.R.Congo's destabilisation and theft of resources, and the violent maintenance of a local decades long dictatorship that kills and exiles critics left and right. Haiti does not border and control Africa's most resource-rich land and does not benefit from yet another dictatorship, let alone one headed by a corrupt war criminal like Kagame.
@@jayattipoe6597 Paul Kagame is a longtime stooge of the west; a shill for imperialism and a participant in the genocide of millions of Congolese. His advance has come at the price of the lives of these fellow Africans who he and Museveni jointly invaded repeatedly. Surely you know this, but for those who are genuinely unaware, google "Friends of the Congo" to start your real education. There are many more truth tellers. If you want truth, you will find them.

Merci , Mr Hedges. I have read most of your books. You're a man of integrity. You're telling the truth to power and to the bad actors. I like your report.
Very important to pay attention to this issue. Making Haitians pay for their freedom was a human rights violation. France should be ashamed of that . Also it unleashed generations of evil plutocrats on Haiti. Decades of injustice.
this gang leader is like most people - a mixture of contradictory characteristics. But pinning any hopes on this man to somehow transform a miasmic failed state is naïve in the extreme.
I agree.who is he fighting and how many of them has he kidnaped or killed.seems more like a hired hand of the government and the elite.with all the love and respect I have for Chris this is highly misinformed and naive.
Chris Hedges is my absolute favorite journalist of all time, and this was another one for the books. Thanks to Dan Cohen and Kim Ives for their amazing work!
People that follows jimmy for years will know He's not a criminals the only mistake he did was not taking over Haiti when the country is ungovernable and destabilize by America.
@@YanickRameau America after to kill him America create more gangs to challenge his resistance and do propaganda to the people of Haiti that their problem is gangs problem not foreign interference, that's why you see many so call gangs members are being burn on the street of Haiti.
Thanks Chris for making this truth known. I knew it already but have seen the headlines smearing Cherizier as a gang leader. Bloody awful that the US state department is such a dirty player in Haiti (and wherever they go).
Thank to you. I would like some good Haitian translators take the opportunity to translate this review into creole and French therefore, most Haitian can read and understand it.
I have to say something about the Prince Charmant these guys are describing here. I can't let you spread an adulterated version of what is happening now in Haiti. First of all you used our glorious events and history to sugarcoat the image of your super hero. BBQ is a gang leader like all the others. He has his territory where nothing happened without him getting paid for. For example no truck trailer can leave the port without his paid approval. The gang leader has never claimed an ideology. I'm asking myself why you invest that much intellectual energy to present this gang leader under the best lighting possible. I say it loud, you are liberating rats in the rice plantations. That's evil, so sad.
People are so sick of criminals taking what doesn't belong to them!! They are no longer going to be held hostage in their own country!! Take back your country and community!!!
I know a guy who had his whole family killed when he was 12, he was saved by his Uncle who would have been killed if found out. Papa Doc was a huge criminal but you support him!
All expertise speaking here. The country Hati has always had a volatile history as we know. Thank you, Chirs, for having Dan Cohen and Kim Ives on Friday.
It's been pissing me off how this hasn't been getting more coverage or when it is it's the same propaganda without any context. Thank you for covering this.
The socio-economic situation you have described is quite real. However, I was flabbergasted when you started selling BBQ like a revolutionary, and you even dare to compare it to Aristide. Frankly, you're either doing it on purpose or you're really naive. BBQ may be frustrated following his dismissal from the police, but he is not a revolutionary, he was an ally of the Jovenel regime, and he really participated in the La Saline massacre. BBQ claims he is fighting the system when he has never dared to attack the bourgeois. Its only target and its victims are always the people. On several occasions he and his gangs burned down the homes of people who live in Bellair, at no time did he attack any of his corrupt policemen who are in cahoots with the bourgeois. Moreover, the Bellair district where his enemies are located is a reputed district close to former President Aristide, who himself was against the power of Jovenel Moïse that BBQ defended. BBQ's real mission was to unite gangs to prevent popular anti-Jovenel uprisings in neighborhoods that were against the regime, neighborhoods that demanded accountability for the economic crimes of PHTK, from which Jovenel came. This is the truth. If you really helped Haiti, you have to tell all the truth otherwise people will think that you are in cahoots with BBQ. Besides, you should ask yourself where do they find the weapons of war and the ammunition they use? Who are its suppliers? Who are his bosses? Because, those who hold arms in Haiti are poor, they don't work, they can't find the money to buy their overpriced arms.
Set Emotions and Feelings Aside. The American Government and the Clinton's need to stay out of Haiti. The Haitian people needs Justice and take back their precious land. Thank you guys for sharing. My message to the Haitians "Don't be weak and soft to the beautiful faces with is willing to fabricate a lie and use you for your resources. " otherwise you have lost.
My families from Haiti I’ve never been I was hoping to go one day before my grandparents pass away, but so much violence I don’t think so. Hopefully my grandparents are able to come here so I can see them.
Female Haitian speakers say he is both. He was/is a gang leader. He is also anti- CIA putting Ariel Henry in position of power. It is alleged he has been hired by opposing political party. I do not know why american government does not back off and let Jean Arastide return to power. He is still alive and loved by the Haitian people.

Fascism uses the economic system of National Syndicalism (Corporatism) which is completely different from Capitalism because it is run by National Labor Unions.
Hitler was a National Socialist which is Socialism but recreated to suit the Nation and Advance its Volk (Race)
Neoliberalism is international Corporatocracy which heavily subordinates the state to Mega Corporation lobbyists and interests
It's not capitalism, if the government is in complete control of it.

Hmmm... that's funny, since the US became the one and only supper power, taking that title after sacrificing 420,000 American lives in WW2 to bring peace, the world has seen a reduction in poverty of 1.2 billion people, drastic reduction in global infant mortality, near eradication of smallpox and other once common diseases, longer life spans across the board in most countries, tens of billions spent on hospitals, schools, AIDS medicines and food to feed the poor in Africa and around the world, deaths due to wars may seem high but in actuality are historically low, environmental deaths have dropped by 90% and the list goes on and on. You see, America has allowed countries like Singapore and many others to develop their economy's rather than their military's because they know big brother is there to take the hit. The collective economies of the world have never seen a period in time more prosperous, with the lowest poverty rates, than what we experience currently. O' Haiti is cursed by ignorance and a peoples that find it difficult to govern themselves. It has nothing to do with the US as the US suffers dealing with their inabilities to rule that nation. It's a money pit. What is there to exploit from Haiti?
Don’t worry just like the Congo 🇨🇩 Haiti 🇭🇹 will get better ❤️🩹
Well said! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Chris✊🏿...
Thank you all. Solidarity
Very good information
Great video. Haiti is a place where there is a universal language that everyone speaks and a small minority language that only 5-10 % know very well. However, in the case of Haiti, thus minority language is used against the majority to exclude them from power and empowerment. Everyone speaks Creole, only a small minority speaks French yet all the laws are written in French. The education, such as it is , when it exists, is mostly in French. Business is in French. The signage is mostly in French but Creole is the universal tongue. The day when French disappears from government, business, education and the media will be the day when the people will be empowered. French could be maintained for historical reasons but the only language of Haitian society should be the main language in the media , government, business, etc. It is all indicative of the caste system in Haiti.
Of course , the language situation is arguably one of the least problems in a country where there is starvation , anarchy, cholera , lack of any opportunities, etc but it definitely is a symptom of what’s wrong with Haitian political class
A great template for Haiti is Rwanda and the amazing job being done by Paul Kagami and his team.
@@jayattipoe6597 The one great problem of Rwanda as a template for Haiti is the fact that Kagame has always enjoyed the firm support of the US. In Rwanda , France and the US are/were at loggerheads . Indeed, Kagame even replaced French with English as the language of administration, something that irked France. In Haiti, France and the US are definitely on the same page. The Haitian state has been torn down by the US (now run by NGOs) while the Rwandan state has been strengthened. The Haitians made the horrendous mistake of electing someone the US did not want not once but twice: Aristide. Whatever flaws he might have, he talked about giving some power to the Haitian masses, he even supported strengthening the role of the Creole language . Can’t have that!
@@jayattipoe6597nly problem is that that "amazing" job in Rwanda is built and kept on the back of D.R.Congo's destabilisation and theft of resources, and the violent maintenance of a local decades long dictatorship that kills and exiles critics left and right. Haiti does not border and control Africa's most resource-rich land and does not benefit from yet another dictatorship, let alone one headed by a corrupt war criminal like Kagame.
@@pronouncingfun You know your stuff.
@@jayattipoe6597 Paul Kagame is a longtime stooge of the west; a shill for imperialism and a participant in the genocide of millions of Congolese. His advance has come at the price of the lives of these fellow Africans who he and Museveni jointly invaded repeatedly. Surely you know this, but for those who are genuinely unaware, google "Friends of the Congo" to start your real education. There are many more truth tellers. If you want truth, you will find them.
Dan Cohen from Redacted done some truly excellent reporting on Jimmy, God Bless him
Thank you so much Mr Gelin
I’m sorry barbecue is a criminal,Izo is a criminal and plus .Stop given him credit.None of those ppl are helping the Haitien ppl
😮 I knew about some of the information in this video. It's good to be validated. But still very sad to hear 😢.🇭🇹🇻🇮❤
Great reporting.
Thanks for telling the truth on the struggle of the haitian people.
Thanks for showing Dessalines as our father thanks.
Neither he is a people leader.but you are 1 of d best journalists on the market. You will definitely have a space in the kingdom of dignity and truth.may the God of Isreal yahweh bless u and your family 👪 u keep up the good work. We got ur back 🔙 💯 %.thanks for your hard work and determination
Aquaman and Harry Potter also bless this journalist and his family. Shioba-shisho!!!
Many thanks to TRN & the intrepid Chris Hedges for airing this tremendous segment on Haiti.
Chris is relentless
@@jackklugman107
Yes , Chris is. 💯 correct
Amazing journalistic piece!
Merci , Mr Hedges. I have read most of your books. You're a man of integrity. You're telling the truth to power and to the bad actors. I like your report.
I APPRECIATE YOUR TEAM TELLING THE TRUTH
Very important to pay attention to this issue. Making Haitians pay for their freedom was a human rights violation. France should be ashamed of that . Also it unleashed generations of evil plutocrats on Haiti. Decades of injustice.
G9 is a gang and the leader need to be jailed. Period
Good job very good news sir
Thanks have a nice Sunday 👌
this gang leader is like most people - a mixture of contradictory characteristics. But pinning any hopes on this man to somehow transform a miasmic failed state is naïve in the extreme.
I agree.who is he fighting and how many of them has he kidnaped or killed.seems more like a hired hand of the government and the elite.with all the love and respect I have for Chris this is highly misinformed and naive.
Thank you sir for that information.
Awesome video thanks brother. Be safe out there and God Bless.
Very good job with this video… thanks!
Chris Hedges is my absolute favorite journalist of all time, and this was another one for the books. Thanks to Dan Cohen and Kim Ives for their amazing work!
Thank you for bringing light into this story God bless
He's 110%, gang leader. He never attacked even once the oligarchs
@loganville2010 I wouldn't be surprised is the oligarchs in Haiti have him in his pocket to wreak chaos in the country.
Good job man ❤
The American government did the same thing to the Black Panther Party and to Malcolm X.
Ppl p
Great journalistic work. This is real news.
Really? When was the last time you've been to Haiti?
This is real journalism!
This is fantastic news and I thank you and I wave to know more about this cruel process of a nation. I really appreciate it.
🎉Bravo pou zanmi ki.pale a
We haitian Will overthow western imperialism forever .
People that follows jimmy for years will know He's not a criminals the only mistake he did was not taking over Haiti when the country is ungovernable and destabilize by America.
I have a revelation about him he try to help Haiti but they need to protect him.
@@YanickRameau America after to kill him America create more gangs to challenge his resistance and do propaganda to the people of Haiti that their problem is gangs problem not foreign interference, that's why you see many so call gangs members are being burn on the street of Haiti.
Thanks Chris for making this truth known. I knew it already but have seen the headlines smearing Cherizier as a gang leader. Bloody awful that the US state department is such a dirty player in Haiti (and wherever they go).
Don't listen to them they're created cherizier , u.s, Canada, France, Corp group gang
Well said!
Thank you for this information. More should be said of persons who are fighting for equality in Haiti.
Thank you guys your tell it like it is
Thank to you. I would like some good Haitian translators take the opportunity to translate this review into creole and French therefore, most Haitian can read and understand it.
I really appreciate your intelligence against abusing foreign power
I have to say something about the Prince Charmant these guys are describing here. I can't let you spread an adulterated version of what is happening now in Haiti. First of all you used our glorious events and history to sugarcoat the image of your super hero.
BBQ is a gang leader like all the others. He has his territory where nothing happened without him getting paid for. For example no truck trailer can leave the port without his paid approval. The gang leader has never claimed an ideology. I'm asking myself why you invest that much intellectual energy to present this gang leader under the best lighting possible. I say it loud, you are liberating rats in the rice plantations. That's evil, so sad.
Thanks for this great clip,very very nutritional to say the least......hope and pray for jimmy"barbecue" well being.
People are so sick of criminals taking what doesn't belong to them!! They are no longer going to be held hostage in their own country!! Take back your country and community!!!
Thank you for this very informative information I already knew this but a lot of people did not know because people don't read or study .
Excellent episode about the situation in Haiti. Dan's movie was phenomenal 👏
I know a guy who had his whole family killed when he was 12, he was saved by his Uncle who would have been killed if found out. Papa Doc was a huge criminal but you support him!
All expertise speaking here. The country Hati has always had a volatile history as we know. Thank you, Chirs, for having Dan Cohen and Kim Ives on Friday.
Thank you
Good job
It's been pissing me off how this hasn't been getting more coverage or when it is it's the same propaganda without any context. Thank you for covering this.
thank you for this ❤
I appreciate Chris .
Great video
The socio-economic situation you have described is quite real. However, I was flabbergasted when you started selling BBQ like a revolutionary, and you even dare to compare it to Aristide. Frankly, you're either doing it on purpose or you're really naive. BBQ may be frustrated following his dismissal from the police, but he is not a revolutionary, he was an ally of the Jovenel regime, and he really participated in the La Saline massacre. BBQ claims he is fighting the system when he has never dared to attack the bourgeois. Its only target and its victims are always the people. On several occasions he and his gangs burned down the homes of people who live in Bellair, at no time did he attack any of his corrupt policemen who are in cahoots with the bourgeois. Moreover, the Bellair district where his enemies are located is a reputed district close to former President Aristide, who himself was against the power of Jovenel Moïse that BBQ defended. BBQ's real mission was to unite gangs to prevent popular anti-Jovenel uprisings in neighborhoods that were against the regime, neighborhoods that demanded accountability for the economic crimes of PHTK, from which Jovenel came. This is the truth. If you really helped Haiti, you have to tell all the truth otherwise people will think that you are in cahoots with BBQ. Besides, you should ask yourself where do they find the weapons of war and the ammunition they use? Who are its suppliers? Who are his bosses? Because, those who hold arms in Haiti are poor, they don't work, they can't find the money to buy their overpriced arms.
Thank you my friend
Set Emotions and Feelings Aside. The American Government and the Clinton's need to stay out of Haiti. The Haitian people needs Justice and take back their precious land. Thank you guys for sharing. My message to the Haitians "Don't be weak and soft to the beautiful faces with is willing to fabricate a lie and use you for your resources. " otherwise you have lost.
Thanks guys
I'm not agreeing with this propaganda for barbecue.
My families from Haiti I’ve never been I was hoping to go one day before my grandparents pass away, but so much violence I don’t think so. Hopefully my grandparents are able to come here so I can see them.
Facts bro all of the west together is doing haiti like that
please stop talking about gang members in haiti
i am a haitian person do not interview gang criminals in haiti
Thanks Chris and I have 🙏
My name is evens and I m Haitian. Did he explain to you where does he get all this expensive weapon,I hope he answers you thes questions sir 🤔🧐
Up to the time Haiti long live Haiti long live Africa France and the west must go
Female Haitian speakers say he is both. He was/is a gang leader. He is also anti- CIA putting Ariel Henry in position of power. It is alleged he has been hired by opposing political party. I do not know why american government does not back off and let Jean Arastide return to power. He is still alive and loved by the Haitian people.
Get your facts straight the gang leader tag put on him bcuz there's a director of human rights in Haiti call Pierre esperance put that tag on him ..
You're smoke dope . They're all worked for the same master
Aristides traitor betrayed destroyed Haitian army for his bill Clinton scammer thief's
Aristide again?what is wrong with of my people?
@@jeanpatrickfleurimond3606 Aristide committed treason (treasonous) destroyed Haiti paradise by removed the Haitian millitary created lamé bout manché ( machete gang army) at cité Soleil greatest dumb move and today without the millitary we're can't fight the gangs .and this wouldn't never happen if the military was here . Also he destroyed disabled Haiti because bill Clinton sold him a dream get him rich
Barbecue is not a traitor to Haitian
