US Marines, 'American Guns': Haiti's Not a Mystery
Funny how the mainstream media discovers the proliferation of 'American-made' weapons only when they're aimed back at U.S. troops. The article from Bloomberg Politics (dated 2025!) discusses Marines heading to Haiti, focusing on the danger posed by these U.S.-sourced arms. But it conveniently side-steps the decades of destabilizing U.S. interventions in Haiti, from propping up dictators to
orchestrating coups – notably the 2004 ouster of democratically elected Jean-Bertrand Aristide, which plunged the nation deeper into chaos and empowered the very gangs now being reported on. One might wonder if the real story is not where the guns came from, but why an entire nation can't stabilize itself without external military 'assistance' that consistently exacerbates its problems. The
'gangs' are a symptom, not the root cause, of a crisis meticulously cultivated by foreign interference. Perhaps the Marines might recognize a perverse form of 'blowback' when they see it.
