We don't know what our boys will be asked to do but we're sending them anyway. I'm not sure our commodore should be a commodore if he is accepting a mission, recruiting for a mission and training for a mission, but doesn't know what the mission is.
Are we providing oversight (i.e. need sharp shooters) and we're sending chaplains? Or are we helping distributing food and we're sending computer technicians?

We would have lost or we lost? You don't have to sound smart all the ti.e. life is short, we gat you.

I am also very puzzled with uneducated people using those words....'would have'. I'm guessing they heard it somewhere and it sounded smart.

United states tries to not put boots on the ground and we do. If any of our officers die , it will become political and bad for the PLP.

The US creates conflicts around the world, then orders other nations to go deal with it. The multipolar world is on the way, make haste Russia and China, make haste.

**Mr King said the RBDF had not received explicit instructions regarding its role or functions in Haiti, but would send three platoons of 50 people to Hait**. Wow...........I am speechless

I hope recruitment drops . We have way too many civil servants .We have been absorbing our birth rate with civil service jobs for fifty years, everyone is taxed to death to afford it .One in four working people work for the government ,. .Bahamasair has over one hundred employees per plane when the industry average is about twenty three I think . We need to put some salt peter in water supply .

**If I may be trusted to submit alongside** RBDF Commodore Raymond King's struggle to recruit. --- Three Fighting Platoons from the colony's entire popoulaces' --- With the **Willingness to go risk their lives on the foreign soil of Haiti,** -----  Could easily become unhampered by the RBDF recruitment efforts, --- Doing a deep dive to unlock the **Same Fighting Willingness** from within the **37% (2353) percent** of **Bay Street's prime Junkanoos' viewings' locations seating** at Rawson Square and in front of Scotiabank –  Of which **(870)** of such reserved seats are, --- Exclusively Reserved for Members the Ruling Government's House-elected, Politically Appointed and Anointed and Enjoined. --- Let's see, if RBDF's Commodore King, will meet with success in recruiting **a single Fighting Platoon of (50) Haiti Bound Soldiers..** --- Yes?

It is wrong to send bahamians to die for Haiti because nothing will change the Plp is settling themselves up to loose the election

That money can be spent to improve health care help many going blind they can not afford the surgery shame on the Government

Firstly, sending troops to Haiti to deal with gang activity is pointless without a clear strategy of removing the major underlying cause of Haiti's problems, which is the corrupt elite and political class that have had a strangle hold on Haiti for generation!

This corrupt elite and political class conglomerate manage and facilitate all levels of nefarious activities in Haiti.

Unless they are also dismantled or neutralized, the situation in Haiti has zero chance of sustainable improvement.

The United States interest in Haiti is the ongoing "continued" pilferage of its $20 billion gold deposits and Haitis' vast quantities of Oil and Natural Gas reserves that are confirmed to be some of the largest oil reserves in the world.

The corrupt elite and political class facilitate Canada and the United States exploitation of Haiti's natural resources, maintaining the countries currant destabilized condition and dire financial state it now faces.

Western powers have employed the same tactics across the African continent for generations. The worst offender being France, having a well documented history of gross exploitation and horrendous atrocities in Africa in its bid to steal its natural resources.

The broader questions of any stabilization of Haiti are, what will happen the day after a peace keeping force leaves? How will Haiti divest itself of the corrupt elite and political class that facilitates foreign exploitation of its natural resources that hinders its economic stability and sustainable development?

Without the answers to these questions, sending in troops to quell gang activity in Haiti is a total nonstarter that would unquestionably end in the unnecessary deaths of any number of troops and civilians.
