Haiti’s Army Is Making A Comeback 20 Years After Disbanding (HBO)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июл 2018
- Haiti hasn't had a military since 1995, when it was disbanded after a series of coups, brutal crackdowns, and an American intervention. But now, officials there say it's time for a comeback.
Last year, President Jovenel Moïse declared that the Caribbean's poorest nation would be reconstituting its army, just in time for the drawdown of United Nations troops, who have been part of the Haitian security landscape for years.
For the past two decades, responsibility for law and order has largely fallen to the country's National Police, a force that is heavily funded, and heavily vetted, by the U.S.
According to official polls, the renewed army has the support of the majority of the population, where the U.N. is widely seen more as a force of instability and foreign control, rather than peace.
But on a recent visit to the country, VICE News learned that many Haitians remain deeply skeptical of the plan.
Mario Joseph, a leading human rights lawyer in the capital, Port-au-Prince, says the military brings back dreadful memories. And the decision by authorities to reappoint many of the original officers to the new High Command has only reinforced his concerns.
"This is an army that was re-formed - that's it," Joseph told VICE News. "It's not a new army."
The question facing Haitian officials is whether they can really make peace with the troubles of the past, or if they are simply hoping to turn the page.
"I can understand, you know, for some people there's some concern," said Herve Denis, the Haitian minister of defense. "But I said, 'Watch us. You will see that we are doing the best for the country.'"

VICE News Please tell your correspondent in this video that the M1 Garand's that the Haitain Army were taking out of that container is a World War II weapon not a World War I weapon.
Thank you.
Why is it the poorest? Its called corruption
You call Haiti the “poorest” but never mentioned why. Nice work, no wonder Trump calls you fake news...
Aura Glasswerks guess they forgot that part, huh? Asswipes
VICE News who TF do you think you are?
I was going to give the "reporter" a chance until he opened with the same boring tagline all white reporters love to say about Haiti "the poorest country blah blah"... ...but you assholes forget to state why and how we became that way... how France stole our riches, how United States depleted our natural resources, how the Clinton collapsed our rice economy. How convenient to leave out we were THE FIRST BLACK Republic to fight for our independence. How we were once called the Pearl of the Antilles, how we produced a lot of the world's sugar, how we made the baseballs used in th he MLB in the 50s, how we helped countries like Colombia and Venezuela fight for their freedom, how we helped the US in war, how WE WERE TH E FIRST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD TO ABOLISH SLAVERY
The epitome of white privilege is how this little nobody prick can go to someone else's country and question a general on his need for an army....are you fucking kidding me. FOH
🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹
This video aged well
Came here for this comment exactly lmao
I have no informed opinion or thoughtful commentary to provide on this particular topic.
Good for you.
Thank you.
At least you're honest.
Jay Fayza yup me too...and probably most of the people won't have no clue were Haiti is even located
I respect you for making this mature comment, more people should remain quiet and not speak out about topics they have no real knowledge about.
the commander is eating the budget of the Haitian Army
JD I actually laughed out so loud
That’s rude
Literally.
😂
There is no way he earned that position. He must know someone that put him in that position.
they are an island. They need a navy. But what they really need is an over haul of all the infrastructure. Over haul of government and education systems. Social programs. Jobs.
Cassie Best Ever! Agreed
Agreed. They should leave the Military to the US to take care of them.
Lieutenant Sinopa this attitude of having to rely of foreign aid is Exactly why Haiti had been and still is so poor.
Cassie Best Ever! Haiti??? Hahaha
Cassie Best Ever! To bad it’s a shithole with corrupt government 😔
Wow so many people hating. All I'm gonna say is Haiti has every right to build an army.
they're just gonna coup again, they shouldn't be allowed to have one without permission from the us
Haiti need fascism
gilet102 nah their army sucks
Have you seen their GDP? It's wasteful to be spending so much money on an effectively pointless military when there are literally people starving to death on their streets.
Too many coups already. Please learn from the past!
The training base you see at the beginning of the video was a former South Korean UN peacekeeping mission base. I was in charge of Civil Military Cooperation at the end of the South Korean mission we made an agreement with the Haitian government to hand over our base and equipment for local educational purpose I was suspecting this but yeap they changed for a military training base. Sad we trained dozens of local children for computer skills, construction skills , taekwondo even taught them Korean.
@Tom Evers m1 grand lol thats not a ww1 gun
@Tom Evers The M1 Grand first appeared during the Second World War.
@Tom Evers As weird as your responses are, at least you took their corrections seriously.
@Tom Evers Strange
@Tom Evers Yeah. We're talking about the Garand. I think they're just using it as a parade rifle, given that we use similarly old rifles in the US. Old battle rifles just look better when marching and their simpler geometry is easier to handle when tossing it around.
Very brave people. Those who fought for their freedom even earlier than many other countries. Poor, and experienced with many diseases but strong enough to take it upon themeselves. I salute haitian people! Greetings from Poland. :)

@@spiceguy2408 he's a nazi, dont mind him
Poland 🇵🇱 actually fought alongside Haitians during the war with the French. Hello 👋 from America.
We still fight to this day like you in East Europe, keep up the fight for true democracy .
Haiti definitely not a poor country, unfortunately Haiti wealth come straight to United states
I was born to Haitian parents that left in the country and came to America. While I may not have been born in Haiti growing up around my grandmother and learning about the history and culture of the first Black independent country hold special significance to me. I always promised myself that if there was anyway that I could help change Haiti for the BETTER in my future that I would. It’s the poorest country in the Caribbean and one of the poorest in the Western Hemisphere too and any hopes of the country getting back on its feet need to be evaluated by the government as well as the PEOPLE. Money makes the world go round and as soon as I’ve made something big about myself I’ll keep that promise to myself to revolutionize Haiti for my grandma!!!!
Keep at it man
Wowwwww i love you for that.keep that in mind cause we need it.Wowwww i impressed by your words.I only hope one day my country can have an army like US or Russia or China etc.Cause im tired of seeing other nasty army in my country.
I hate when they said Haiti's poor ok Haiti's poor ok is poor stop stealing Haiti's resources some stupid keep repeating the same BS as them leave Haiti alone
International failed Haiti please leave Haiti alone .Haiti will rise again justice for president Jovenel Moise
@@unclejeanmarie949 Haiti can’t wait for international help. They’ve got to help themselves for themselves.
Colonel Jean Robert Gabriel lived in Brooklyn for many years before returning to Haiti in 2018. I was a coworker of his for 15 years. I have to say he is one of the nicest guys I have ever met and have ever worked with. We worked together at a home for adults with developmental disabilities. All the residents loved this man because he was kind and respectful to everyone. I consider him a good friend and wish him all the best and much success in reconstituting the Army of Haiti.
Is he still there? Last time I checked gangs now literally control 80% of the capital and prevented the prime minister from returning to the island
I pray for Haiti, and wish them The most highs blessings for their success!
🥺🥺 thank u
Pray they stop worshiping voodoo demons
I'd say some collectors would like to take a look at those M1's lol.
they are cheap and can be bought for like 1250$ with the CMP
AK's are crazy cheap though
Not when you're one of the poorest countries in the world though...
Mayo- -Nez I'm sure a lot of collectors would pay top dollar for all those M1s.
And arent modern weapons
Yeah a standard regular AK-47 will cost you 200$ USD each and a regular M1 Grand will cost $650 -$1200
USD so the AK is way cheaper, more reliable and overall a good weapon
You guys... the weapons they're using right now are for parades. It's unlikely those are even real M1s. Probably just poorly looked after replicas from a JROTC somewhere in the midwest.
When even dirt poor countries are rearming you know something's about to get bad...
No: security in Haiti has been declining for years - the police is over-extended - when police require assistance that's where the military comes in.
vonVince exactly.
vonVince That's a terrible idea, just look at what happened in Mexico.
No it isn't - that you are even comparing Haiti that seeks to have a very small military to help with national security to Mexico which has a large military and think that all poor countries who are seeking to help their national security are "about to get bad" shows that you are just being an armchair military type.
Zarathustra Zarath that made me laugh!
haiti is not the poorest country in the carbiean man... They are the poorest in the entire american continent.
raul yanez cortes I thought so too, but maybe some of the newer countries in the minor antilles are poorer? Some of the smaller islands
Ironically 🇭🇹 haiti was once the richest at one point ,wile it was a French 🇫🇷 colony
fidel liera haiti is a shithole. no one likes haitians
Markheef Dessal Lmao tell him
fidel liera under slavery, then when we WON and TOOK our independence we were charged hundreds of millions of French francs. Then America came pillaged our natural resources. The country wasn't the richest in the Antilles because of the French...it was because of the land. The french didn't bring the land they brought slaves. Know the history before you try to talk that colonizer shit. 🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹
Give some Boy Scouts M16’s and they’ll capture that whole army within a day lol
or the M16 will jam up on them
smokyondagrass M16s are reliable if cleaned; the people who don't understand their reliability are the people who don't understand adequate maintenance.
he didn't specify which variant on the M16 so i thought he was talking about the original one sent to Vietnam. and even with maintenance the original M16 was pretty unreliable. and since he's sending boy scouts i have little hope for that invasion of Haiti.
Hell, the boy scouts here in Texas are easily better armed that that lot showed drilling. But what can you expect from Hati, its the poorest shithole in the hemisphere.
smokyondagrass the A1 (the original) only suffered in performance so heavily because the DoD didn't actually teach soldiers how to properly clean and lubricate the rifles. In humid environments this is particularly necessary. As a result they developed comic book like cleaning manuals that actually still exist today because they realised nobody was reading the high-level reading field manuals sent out with the rifles and modified the basic entry training to include understanding of weapon maintenance. The M16 got a bad reputation because essentially the Army never thought to teach draftees how to take care of it....
You don't have to follow the American model of government for your country to be successful. I love my country, but Haiti can solve it's problems in different ways. Try something new.
Jerome Alan to be fair America isnt seen as a successful country in most of the world
You 3 are shills, America is the best country around. You're just too conditioned over privileged to understand what privileges you truly have. Be great, spread love not hate. God bless you, and god bless America.
They had different approach before. Under Duvalier. And they failed.
Jerome Alan to bad the presidents are spending it all on themselves.
Jerome Alan yeah the presidential system sucks
How can they say that an army can help with national disasters when the government was so corrupt and incompetent that millions still need help after the 2010 earthquake to this day
Through the magical power of bullshitting.
Long Zeng Flint, MI still doesn’t have drinkable water.
Long Zeng wasn't the government it was the International partners that haven't done their part.
Long Zeng also millions don't need help, lol you don't know anything about Haiti.
Long Zeng bc hiliary stole the money. And you speak as of this currupted gov didnt watch people drown in katrina and by the way of which mosy of those families still displaced. You see you know nothing.
They have every right to have one. Each country should have one to protect its land. Good in Haiti!
I love Haiti from Puerto Rico🇵🇷🇭🇹
My girlfriend is Puerto Rican she funny
All the reasons he gave are already police responsibilities.
Chris Chong unless they go to war with the DR then you need a military. And police dont have the same responsibilities as a military would. Police state miiltary federal. Police cant go to war a military can. Police inforce certain laws wheras the military only inforce military law unless absolute martial law or martial law. There is a major difference between the 2.
The DR isn't exactly a threat, and with the US so close by nobody's stupid enough to go around invading other countries. Given how extremely poor the country is, such funds can be better spent elsewhere. It's regional neighbour Costa Rica hasn't had a military since 1949 and it's been fine ever since.
Chris Chong so are you saying they dont have a right bc costa rica is fine. Costa rica dont have the same problems Haiti has. The US never wanted this nation to have a military. Haitian are hated world wide. Lets get back to funds the French has stole billions also.
NKOSI STRAIN BULLIES thank you! People love to talk as if they know the layers of underlying issues with Haitian politics, invasive American and French politics, financial bullying, etc.
@@Pepe-em9gj daji
At least they know how to separate the army from politics.
So they claim
no they don't....just wait.
Alistair Kinnear You Haitian?
Peter Geramin probaly not. But he's no dumbass clearly.
it seems they learn this lesson from their past historic Coup d'état.
Feed and educate the people. 😑
RyanBlockb5 they did say they’d be renting out there army. If it works that would be a s piece of income. That said it’s kinda scary to think of a country renting out their entire military. It’s a publically funded mercenary group
TheOtherOne122 China will loan them more money than they can afford. Then use that debt to strong arm land from them. Most likely a port built with people from China. Influence them to vote in Chinas favor on international issues. It's working for them in Africa and Greece.
How are they supposed to educate their people with no money? They have no major trade partners and have faced so many sanctions from Western countries that they weren't able to establish trade. Just in case you didn't realize, but the same sanctions that the USA imposed upon Haiti made the entire Russian economy to collapse. Russia, the second most powerful nation on planet Earth. Imagine what that would do to a developing country.
@@gtas321 yet they want to build an army
@@neilnelmar8007 blame France
Remember when the Haitians defeated the army of their slave masters,killed all the surviving forces,and defeated the French and English armies and after that gained independence before the us they did that with a army remember
Very true
They are not into wars. They just want to reinforce their country as an independent nation. It's strange they didn't have an army when every independent country has one.
Jesus King not get invaded by the Dominican Republic *
True, but the country endured severe turmoil on a continuous basis for centuries afterward. I mean they had multiple coups, revolutions, democracies, dictatorships, civil wars, occupations by foreign countries, failed invasions of other countries, etc. Basically, Haiti was a country that once it had freedom could not come to a consensus on what to do with it.
Jesus King Costa Rica doesn't have an army and they're doing pretty good.
Look at them now 😂😂😂😂😂
this aged well
Lack of army has led to emerge of gangs😢😢😢😢😢
Looks like knock off USMC uniforms
That's because their uniforms are military surplus from USA to start with.
no, those are not surplus uniforms of any sort. yes Empire, they are knock offs. The USMC would never in 1000 years give something that has the EGA in the actual pattern of the camoflauge to a foreign nation. Its cheaper to buy sets from China.
Funny though because the US do give their surplus uniforms overseas...
Marcus Harrington exactly. Being in Finnish military I've seen various modern American uniforms in our storage (we don't actually use them but in testing and training to compare with our own uniforms), none of which were "Chinese knock offs" but items delivered from USA as part of a deal - they are not something "USMC would never in 1000 years give" - it isn't their decision, but the government's; military supplies are government property, and it is the government that has the ultimate say in what is given as foreign aid/sold.
If Haiti bought the uniforms, or US Gov. gave them to them, who cares.. But these uniforms are MARPAT (usmc using) even Saudi Arabia is using Desert Marpat. So shut your mouth up, and stop shitting,.
Thank you Vice News for covering this. 🇭🇹

@@neilnelmar8007 a military will help stabilize the country which will allow safer investments in the country which will be good for the economy. It worked in DR, stop hating.
@@mustaphamarseille8102 this is not hating
It's common sense Economy should be first or do you want haiti to still be the poorest
A army is NOT WHAT IS NEEDED THERE. ECONOMIC GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT. EDUCATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE A NON CORRUPT GOVERNMENT.
Defend what? There’s nothing in Haiti that anyone would want. This is a waste of funds that could be used to boost its dirt poor economy
They have no use for an Army in the traditional sense or at least the way this guy imagines. Hati is a small island, they need a strong Navy with solid MPs that work with local police etc Armys are typically occupying forces and they have no need for that.
going to invade the Dominican Republic like in the old days haha
Sir, how can I create an army without the people having the knowledge? Haha, this is why the old civilians are imperative to teach the new ones.
So basically what they are saying is education, health services,industries,social reforms,poverty can go to hell. Let's play soldier soldier and pray for the best. Apparently we all know how the story ends
The president is low key going to become a dictator... The police force in haiti is disorganized at best with each working toward their own self interest, however with a uniform army with much superior weaponry compared to the citizens, the government essentially will be able to rule with an iron fist.
Vladimir if that was the real problem as nothing is stoping American warships from bombarding Haiti, they have no warships to intercept or reliable intelligence agency to pass on such info
Your comments is considered null
Vladimir Momperousse there is no way that the Haitians could ever win against the Americans.. Dumbest comment of the year
Rinku Sidhu You didn't watch the video did you? They are spending little to no money on the army. They pretty much using old weapons and facilty the U.N. left. I am not one who favors war or militarism but a country needs an army. Even if it's a ridiculously small one with outdated equipment.
Bob Dole yeah okay sure. I am sure these outdated weapons and 200 underpaid and over workerd guys are the big "army" that will take over the people.😒 You clearly know nothing about haiti beyond what you see in the American media.

How is that the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere spend money on an army?!
Markheef Dessal Iceland doesn't have an army, but a Hella lot more money than Haiti lol
Markheef Dessal no country wants to invade Haiti. The only dangers to Haiti are natural disasters and their own people.
JuanDiego: What do you know about what a country needs? All of are calling Haiti poor. You need to learn about who made them poor and why? Haiti was a role model for so many latin American countries. This little island was rich with natural resources, respected and admired. Haiti repaid France for killing them doing the revolt and the US stole all of the country's assets in their treasury vault during US marine occupation in 1915. Haiti's revolt is the main reason why Haiti is so poor because developed countries purposely keeping them down in poverty. Ask yourself, why Haiti is only the poorest country in the western hemisphere?
Right, the only enemy Haitian people have to worry about is within the country. Besides in Haiti everyone has a gun so it defeat it purpose..it's like a crazy person punching himself in the face. But Asking for brass knuckles to defend him from invaders and It helps him to get food.
A lot of you dot know, but after haiti gained its independence from France they were forced to pay France a tax just 20 years after. the tax was basically put in place because the slaves rebelled. They didn't finish paying that debt until 1947. France then sold all of haiti's debt to the united states (Citibank Based in New york). With the U.S in charge of receiving payment from Haiti they continued to loan them money further putting the country into debt. FRANCE & U.S caused all of this poverty. Greed and Corruption fuels it.
How does France charge Haiti a FEE for gaining its independence!! They're Just mad the Haitians fucked up Napoleon and soldiers.

Napoleon was in France during the Haitian revolution and it is the yellow fever that decimated the French army...

What Haitains did 200+ years ago in fighting French was special. But lets be real and talk about the modern day, your neighbours could wipe you guys off the face of the Earth if they wanted too.

M1 Garand is a World War II weapon not a World War 1 weapon. Unless you prefer to the Springfield rifle but the Springfield bolt action rifle. I'm amazed that Vice reporter didn't even say or correct the ara of the weapon then again he has no idea Not sure whether to laugh or cry but damn this is kind of hilariously sad. I wonder if there's any of our Marines watching this like wow?! But it's really hard to tell if they really deserve to have an army or I don't know considering their past life.
Garand is WWII tho...
Those are some old ass weapons lol. Even ISIS has more modern equipment. They gotta at least upgrade to AK's or an M-16 to get anywhere close to "modern".
孙悟空/SON GOKU/A.Z. did u watch the video idiot he clearly said it was for a parade
kristoff desroses but did you hear them idiot, that they said that the whole army was only that small little group
kristoff desroses also I'm not wrong, isis does have better equipment
I'm pretty sure in the beginning of ISIS it started out with an small group
Look here son, that there wood and steel 30-06 M1 garand got some real power to it. It'll knock a moose out. You don't need no 30 round clip when you're pushing 180 grain bullet at 2700 feet per second.
Uh oh, the Dominican Republic is in trouble.
Are they using old hand me down Marine corps uniforms ? Lol
