  • A great example of how some people just lie in order to exploit the wealth of The African Diaspora and paint themselves as decent humans! How do they sleep at night? Oh I forgot vultures sleep lightly!

  • @Ayisiens I never claimed your country had committed some harmful act in equal weight of what the United States has committed. My country has done a lot of harm to a lot of people. However, that being said, the U.S. has done far more good in this world than evil. You should be able to appreciate that, seeing as your country would have fallen into complete disarray and ruin without the aid of mine.

    On the subject, YOU haven't given info on names or dates of these U.S. "crimes" against Haiti.

  • @TheOmegaParadigm you still havent told me that "wrong in existance that" that Haiti have done just like ameriKKKa.im waiting. :)

  • @Ayisiens You know what you're talking about? Sure you do. You have all the facts. You have all the answers. Keep telling yourself what you need to hear so desperately, and looking at the world from a black and white perspective. You've done nothing more than slander and berate the United States for apparently being the bane of Haiti's existence, the cause of all its pain, ignoring the fact that over half a billion dollars was sent in aid from the U.S. to Haiti. As I said, you're a fanatic.

  • @TheOmegaParadigm haha you faild xD.you know what I realized?.your fucking trying to hide from the truth and you cant be "arguing" with me cuz i know what im talking about.tell me once that Haiti have ruined a country like America have.tell me one of those so call "wrong in it existance" that Haiti have done like America. :)

  • @Ayisiens I just realized that you're a fanatic. There's no purpose arguing with you when you already have your mind concluded, no matter what counter I came up with. You honestly believe Haiti to be some pure, innocent country devoid of any and all wrong in this world which has come to be occupied by the big bad United States, which has only the conquest of Haiti for its own purposes, don't you? The U.S. has done a lot of wrong in its existence, but nobody is free of guilt, Haiti included.

  • @TheOmegaParadigm um duhh.One of the Gangs in Haiti who have killed innocent people said and showed proof that they were payed the CIA to kill the last president of Haiti's sopporters..and by the way who is the reason why America has Louisiana?who fought with and help America be free?Oh yeah,HAITI.Haiti have done alot for other countrys and they just turn around and ruin it.

  • @Ayisiens How so? My information isn't incorrect. If you're saying that merely because I have an opinion opposite your own, that argument doesn't hold water. Sorry, but Haiti was an impoverished, third-world slum of a country before "big brother" America came along. We've only helped the situation, albeit at the cost of having Haiti occupied by a foreign military force. But really, would you rather have nothing and let chaos run rampant in the streets? You'd just blame that on U.S. too, I bet.

  • @TheOmegaParadigm im sorry but you need to educate your self.
