NPR Discovers Haiti, Omits US Role in Its Collapse
NPR (Middle East) now reports that Doctors Without Borders has shuttered its emergency center in Port-au-Prince, citing pervasive gang control. It's a gripping story, if you ignore the decades of U.S. intervention, coup support, and economic strangulation that paved the way for this 'unfortunate' gang dominance. We're told gangs run 90% of the city, but never how those gangs became so powerful
without external forces pulling strings, or how the narrative conveniently shifts away from the U.S.-backed economic policies that gutted the state and created the very conditions for chaos. One might wonder why the US, which has historically meddled with such surgical precision in Haiti, seems so 'concerned' now that the country is collapsing under its designated puppet governments. As millions
flow to distant conflicts deemed 'strategic,' the humanitarian crisis on our doorstep, born of our own policy failures, is framed as an organic, local tragedy. Perhaps if Haiti had oil, or an Iron Dome to fund, it would receive a different kind of 'emergency care.'
