Happy Thanksgiving from MY FAMILY to yours 💞We are all wishing @dench_wanda a fast healthy recovery.
Year 9 didn't go as planned but we will be back better than ever for YEAR 10. See you guys next year! 🦃🏡❤️
The Republicans were obsessed with Obama releasing his birth certificate, and VP Harris releasing her McDonald’s pay stubs. BUT THEY don’t want to release the report investigating THEIR Attorney General nominee for allegedly hooking up with a child? Interesting how that works!
Oh, hi, hello Multinational Security Support Mission in Haiti @MSSMHaiti
I hope all is well.
I think it’s commendable and pretty cool that you guys, continue to outline your objectives, I guess this shows great commitment to professionalism
but the reality on the ground tells a different story. As of November 19, 2024, Haiti remains in a dire state:
1. Uncontrolled Gang Violence: Despite claiming to focus on law and order, gang violence has only escalated. Gangs now control over 80% of Port-au-Prince, and their reach extends to surrounding areas. Massacres, kidnappings, and extortion remain daily occurrences. For instance, areas like Solino, Pont-Sondé, and La Croix have seen civilians forcibly displaced as gangs burn homes and claim even more territories than before you guys came.
2. Displacement Crisis: The number of internally displaced people has surged to nearly 800,000, up from 700,000 just weeks ago. MSSM's failure to provide consistent security means families are still fleeing their homes, and humanitarian aid remains blocked or unsafe to deliver in many regions.
3. Weakening of the HNP: While MSSM claims to be strengthening the Haitian National Police (HNP), the force remains underfunded, undertrained, and unable to operate effectively against heavily armed gangs. There’s no visible improvement in their capacity to protect citizens, let alone reclaim gang-controlled areas.
4. Limited Humanitarian Access: MSSM boasts about "safe corridors," yet aid agencies continue to struggle to reach those in need. Reports from organizations on the ground highlight that food, water, and medical supplies are not reaching displaced camps consistently, leaving vulnerable populations to fend for themselves.
5. Political Instability: The mission’s supposed role in stabilizing the environment for political reform is nonexistent. Haiti has not held an election in almost a decade, and there’s no clear pathway to one. The government’s legitimacy is further eroded, and MSSM has done little to foster trust between citizens and leadership.
6. Economic Collapse: Inflation continues to soar, and basic goods are unaffordable for many Haitians. The economic instability is directly tied to the MSSM's inability to secure vital trade routes and reduce gang interference at ports and roads.
1. How can you even claim a lil bit of success when gang violence has worsened under your watch?
2. What specific metrics can you provide to show progress in restoring law and order?
3. If joint operations with the HNP are this effective, why are displacement and killings increasing?
4. What concrete steps are being taken to protect vulnerable populations in camps from exploitation and violence?
5. Why hasn’t there been any visible progress in paving the way for political reforms or elections?
The Haitian people deserve more than empty promises. You guys have had time — but I'll agree that ressources might be missing, this part falls more on the other countries commanding than the one part of the mission— yet the situation today is worse than when y'all arrived. If you truly want to help, start by delivering tangible results rather than hollow updates that insult the daily suffering of millions.
Hello, Multinational Security Support Mission in Haiti @MSSMHaiti! Hope y’all are well-rested, enjoying some good "griot" and "diri sòs pwa ak legim." But quick question—when does the actual work start? You know, the stuff you were supposed to be doing? And no, I’m not talking about this fictional control of airports, roads, and seaports—anyone can see that’s a tall tale. Also, noticed you’ve been quiet lately—ran out of letterhead? Or is the propaganda tour finally wrapped up? Anyway, if y’all are hiring, let me know—I’d love to get paid for doing absolutely nothing too.
