Diary of a Coup - Madagascar

[Odraciralot]

@Bohemund They were thugs, murdering their own people. The demonstrators were only "uncontrollable" because they were tired of being oppressed and not listened to. I guess we are "degenerates" because we despise murderous repression?

[throbule]

Mad - A - Gas - Car......lol

[rabejaona]

This was an outrageous coup no matter how hard they tried to make it look like a civil demonstration....President Ravalomanana was democratically elected TWICE and has won every national elections while he was in office if he did have some shortcomings then they should have run against him for the next election....

[CycleofFire]

he was a DJ now he is a president of a coutry

[Aynarchist]

Respect for the process is essential. A person can't just declare themselves supreme executive leader. A coup will always result in death and carnage, and should be reserved for the overthrow of only the most horrid tyrants, not just a greedy fool of a president.

[whogotsoul]

Good video, but rushed and edited at the end since things didn't happen that fast. The soldiers didn't raid the actual Presidential palace that night, this was only symbolic. Ravalomanana was staying at the other palace where his supporters rallied earlier, which is why the military didn't attempt to go there to avoid any bloodshed. Ravalomanana gave up and resigned a day or two after. He surrendered power to the military, which wanted no part in a "coup", so they handed power to Rajoelina.

[sshapewa]

people are really fucked.presidents have no fucking value at all.the poor guy that sells you bread at ther corner is more worth it than obama.

[whogotsoul]

how is it a coup if ravalomanana handed power over to the military HIMSELF, which handed it to rajoelina?

[whogotsoul]

ravalomanana can go to hell, that greedy bastard has done nothing for my country except drive it to the ground. build roads using asphalt from his wife's company? wow, aside from that, all hes done is create a monopoly out his company tiko and exploit his executive power by issuing short term amnesty to businesses to avoid taxes and used government money to fund many of his ventures. plus, many of the pro-ravalomanana protesters were paid off to do so.

Africa and Afghanistan are lost.

[LegendaryBlackGirl]

Your education is lost! Afghanistan is to Madagascar what Asia is to Africa. There are roughly 50 counties in Asia and Afghanistan is only one of them. Africa has 53 countries and Madagascar is just one of them. Your way of thinking and the worlds reality are not in sync. Go back to school.

[thedudeabides3332]

@LegendaryBlackGirl Shut the fuck up.

[Bohemund]

So the crowd should have been allowed to break into the gate and stomp upon the bodies of policemen and the president? Geez. Get a life.

Police had to shoot an uncontrollable crowd. The West has become so degenerate.

[mlovecraftr]

A girl at 18:59 has an Iphone!!!

[suspendedb4]

so??? this aint what the west wants u to see about africa....all they broadcast to u is poor children starving

[mlovecraftr]

i was indicating my surprise. I am part of of the middle class of a third world country and I know how distorsionated the information arrives to europe and the US, and how the only image they can get is mostly poverty

[guayacan07]

High, mid and low classes are everywhere around the globe, the problem is the gap between classes. In some countries you can see a HOllywood-like crib and around the corner you will find a house built with plastic and cardboard, believe me I'v been there.

[VazhaInTana]

stemcellfilms- Who do you think is financing this 34 year old upstart except for the corporate tools who have been displaced by the last president? This is a military coup, and in the end only the military will decide what happens. In the meantime international aid is frozen, inflation is running rampant, and the rain forests are being cut unchecked. And all so that the business leaders could get a bigger slice of the now dwindling pie.

[jj72330]

i totally agree with bladeere14

what if that were Rajoelina he would of ordered them shot to if people were after him like that

[iZno85]

that's a crazy good documentary, congrats !

[stemcellfilms]

ahhh god is on your side, and your prime minister is as good a man as I've ever seen. I wish the best for the new government. We need to voice the international support for the new government of the people against corporate tools who rape their own nations

[stemcellfilms]

okay seriously, if you know whats up please tell me because I'm on the other side of the world and all I get is this propaganda... so let me know whats up cause all I know is "freemasons"

[VazhaInTana]

Andry is pretty much out of the news now that his usefulness is gone. The news here in Mad is mostly dominated by stories of the security forces (lead by those that mutinied to push the coup) shooting protesters that decry this unlawful seizure of government. The international community has called for new elections by the end of the year (about six months) but Andry's "government" is insisting that it needs SIXTEEN months to get the country ready for an election.

[stemcellfilms]

go andry! whoot whewt¡¡¡

[pnoozi]

4:00 to 4:20

Heart-wrenching.

[bladeere14]

usually u dont run towards goverment headquarters with the army still loyal to the president, its common sense, u just dont do it, they earned it for being so fucking retarded

[FatherTimeasd]

Sick

[PrayerCall]

This is a really well reported piece of work that gives insight that not even the BBC have managed. He is actually speaking to the inside people on both sides. Well done mate! It was really helpful to see the footage and have it all explained cohesively and clearly.

Thanks.

[Y0uTubeLicksMyBalls]

4:08, a guy in a black shirt, jeans and a red cap is hit in the leg or something, he crouches there for a coupple seconds in pain before being hit in the head and killed instantly, crumpling to the ground at 4:13.... wow

[s0ngcatcher]

palace gates are to keep people out. shoot when they get past the gates. dumb.

[daniells71]

In most revolutions people die. Thank God that there were minimal casualties and that this did not turn into a humanitarian crisis. Some African countries have bloodier consequences during riots and demonstrations. The Malagasy people have as of yet, one very sane army.

[rob60201]

pics or it didnt happen

[mgliew]

That is one ballsy reporter. Watch a coup happen in 25 minuits .

I like the fact that this video was very unbiased. I don't agree with hostile take overs but sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures. The decisions made by Ravalomanana in his last week in the seat of power were very poorly made. His last attempt to appease the people should have been done a lot earlier than it was. Hopefully this is not a poor government taken over by another.

[WKaliberr]

I like black

[xxLatinKillaxx]

big cock?

[WKaliberr]

hmm, we now know whats on your mind

[creten69]

im so glad that i didnt go here on vacation.Its like a voodoo place

[davidinfo13]

Can't really respect a leader that was put in by a coup. But Ravalomanan was terrible too.

[thpt]

This was a great documentary.  Fantastic journalism! Thank you!

[jazzeffc]

divide & conquer.

[ahassan5]

its starting to get really boring whats happening around the world these days.

if anything, the world is become shitter by the day.

Where are all of those people who believe that America is making the world a better place?

fuck faces cant even take care of their own home.....and they wanna get involved in other people's business.

[mutiilation]

HA HA! SOME SCARY BLESSINGS!

[LoveAmericaStyle]

God Bless everyone who wants world peace now not later and believe in God.

Oh yes one more thing lets all make sure that Phil Spector is set free: Google Jennifer Lynn Masaryk Ellis Phil Spector World Peace Forever

[Domenique18]

Yeah, ofcourse we did'nt build up S.A and Zimbabwe, the blacks build western housing and infrastructure right? We gave you education, medical care, housing, work, but you are ungrateful, yo really think we would do that WITHOUT asking anything in return? Blacks in S.A claim to have build the country up, it's like Ostrogoths claiming to have build the Roman Empire.

[Azzaiel]

what kind of crack are you smoking? read a book. every culture was better before west interference, every one on the planet.

[Domenique18]

Yeah, if we did'nt involve in Africa, you would still be living in hut's made of cow crap,and tribal warfare, yeah sounds like paradise. Asians have fared better with white inventions, but then again Asians are superior to blacks, and equals to whites. Perhaps even better then whites.

[Azzaiel]

read a book idiot, we had sprawling confederacies.

lol asians are superior to white by miles, black did not spend the last 1000+ years getting african civilization beaten into them by the romans,

you r like thugs with guns, u had superior weapons you got from the asians .. superior my ass

every war you got into u got your ass handed to u, u always use the enemies of the people u r fighting to beat them, promising a part then betraying.

[Azzaiel]

oh and any invention or progress made u take credit for no matter who came up with it. u seriously need to read a book.

no one on this planet benefits from your existence, you fuck up everything you touch.

every civilization you came in contact with was thrown back to the stone age because of your sad netures.

if you were superior then i would be praising you.

but obviously i am not.

throwing endless horde of troops and technologies at people you can't beat lol superior my ass

[Azzaiel]

you are even showing your pathetic insecurities by posting here. who the fuck wanted to talk about you. it ain't about you clown. no on gives a fuck about you.

if you were great we would miss you, but you are not, so we would not give a fuck.

Adolf hitler found on his quest to prove white superiority, that while everyone else on the planet had advanced civilizations long destroyed you were throwing stix at each other lol

fuck off asshole, your shit stinx for miles

[Domenique18]

lol thanks for showing your inferiority, you talked to me, not the other way around. Your one step below mokey's, Asians/Whites are the superior race, we made lot's of inventions, you did'nt invent a wheel in 5000 years of recorded history.

We Asians/whites constantly improved ourselfs, don't take credit for what we build up retard.

[Azzaiel]

so what are you asian? mix white? congrats, you bore me though your superiority is putting me to sleep, have fun being superior

[Domenique18]

I will thanks.

And learn how to write/speak English, it's retarded, bye bye.

[Azzaiel]

jesus christ loser i didn't want to go further, but seriously superiority is the claim of bottom-feeders.

everyone on the bottom claims it to feel better about themselves.

nazi needed it in germany after they got their asses handed to them in WW! and every loser and their inbred cousin after.

man you are stupid

[Domenique18]

The only thing you do is insulting, just shows how stupid you are. The only blacks who are known are the Zulu's, yeah that's something to be proud of.

I'm just saying the truth, if blacks invented stuff and had great civilizations, THEN they would b equals, but they did'nt.

[DivinoNino777]

did you get your ass beat down by them every day at school you nazi fuck. i swear it amazes how there are still nazis out there. the war is over and you lost. there will be no global rise so sit down and shut the fuck up.

[Domenique18]

1: I Never claimed to be "Nazi"

2: I'm Fascist

3: I never got beaten, i talk to muslim women, and spoke to blacks.

4: "Nazi" is an insult that Libtards like you fif, it's kinda like calling someone a nigger.

[Azzaiel]

i just saw your idiotic channel .. leave me alone idiot. you are as irrelevant as my care to continue speaking to a waste of genetics.

[VincenzoP81]

you say you are superior but can't spell or write simple words...

[Azzaiel]

everyone pay attention, some didn't get to see the beginning of the fall of zimbabwe, so please pay attention to the fall of this country.

[Azzaiel]

lol that last prime minister loves his people notice he didn't take loans from the world bank lol good job idiots. just like the philipines.

their economy will now go straight to hell.

and more immigrants will go to america, because it is the only safe place.

good job idiots, you had it way too good. time to suffer

[proteanview]

Azzaiel

Exactly. Way to go. Get indebted to Jewish extremist bankers.

[ahassan5]

typical african shit. nothing new.

it probably has white interference.

[proteanview]

ahassan5

You hit the nail on the head.
