Your opinion that Haiti can be saved is , in my opinion, delusional. It has little to do with being able to predict the future.

I asked if there was any news about the kidnapping. If there is no news, there is no news and a simple "No" would apply.

It is not like Haiti has a functional government and working police force in dealing with a hostage crisis like this.
So, the typical "silence during hostage negotiations" is inapplicable.

Why are you asking me for news ❓
You said Haiti does not have a functional government and working police force in dealing with a hostage crisis like this.
So why would there be news of any type❓
There is no one there to work the problem
So no news to report.

You could take your (compound expletive deleted) to Haiti yourself if you were really interested.
But in my opinion, I doubt you have any real interested in the kidnapping situation.
Repeating your opinion on Haiti...
yeah you are interested in doing that‼️
:rolleyes:

"He made the recommendation after two Dominican crew members were kidnapped when traveling with a large film convoy in Haiti. The kidnappers seek ransom for the release of the two brothers. Alvarez confirmed the Dominican government is in contact with the Haitian government for the release of the young men. Adrian Agromonte, the spokesperson for the film company, Miravista Films, told EFE the negotiations are on a good path."
I was looking to see if there was any progress in the kidnapping, but you may have missed that detail regarding the actual point of this thread.
Ya happy now ***** ❓

The US dept of State has the highest level of warning for travel to Haiti. It mentions kidnappings specifically. Its the same as Somalia.

Simmer down! There are opposing views, but this is a news thread and not a boxing ring!

You have been warned.

I read in the news this morning that the documentary they were filming is about Kidnappings in Haiti.

There is more to this than meets the eye.

Is it possible for one to 'kidnap themselves?
Possibly for profit or fame?

The three who were grabbed were plucked out of a convoy of vehicles. Surgical precision. Didn't even bother with the rest of the convoy.
Wonder if they had a armed escort ❓
With the right weapons package and the right set of men.
It would have been costly for the kidnappers.

I still say send in a company of DR , GI's to liberate the victims. The Haitians will fold like old newspaper and will think twice about kidnapping an innocent.

Hi,
I have worked in Haiti the last couple years. Thankfully in CAP not PAP. Protests in the street were higher before. This last 6 months have been a greater frequency of kidnappings especially in the Capital. Currently just a lack of law or rule which differs greatly from the DR. I am sad for the film crew and others being held. The US level 3 or 4 do not travel has been in effect a long time. Security precautions are a must. Plus understanding where and why you are going also helps. Just a couple thoughts.

🇩🇴 has a commando team.
Well trained and available.
They don't play‼️
Fortune favors the bold.
They need the intel on the location where the hostages are being held first.

Perhaps they should search whorehouse/boardy barns in Boca Chica.
They seem to be good hiding places for 'some.
