So why is Kenya now being sent in to save the day Matt Bevan takes a look.

Great series, loving these videos!

I don’t know how there’s no CIA fingerprints on this, it really feels like a CIA op

Great job

Great to hear this story to understand a troubled part of the world that has been smashed by the French, the Americans, and brutal men in Haiti itself.

Having just returned from Kenya, I can agree with the worry about Kenyan police being the ones to attempt to restore order, however I think it’s a great opportunity for Kenya to show their potential on the world stage. Beautiful country and people.

Great presentation , factual and engaging . An hour or two ago I posted a question re;- the 1000 Kenyan police and their motive and eagerness to participate / lead the UN mission having been unconvinced by the explanation in an interview I`d heard on BBC World Service with the Kenyan minister which was basically an altruistic duty to help our brothers in difficulty in Haiti , from the kindness of our hearts . I might`ve guessed a little `you scratch my back and I`ll scratch yours ` from the U.S. might be behind it although might not the mission have a better chance of success absent the US amongst the peacekeepers I wonder . It still seems as you suggest an unlikely choice but an interesting theory . What a crazy story though , intriguing .....

We have not struggled to fight ALshabab. We have actually done better than the US. Unless you got your facts from the news.

Please caption your videos

on behalf of all Kenyans we are soo embarrassed OMG

might have been helpful to mention that most of those leaders were deposed sue to US and French intervention, Because Haiti was founded by a slave rebellion against France, the French believed they were owed "reparations" for their lost "property"

We saw underground videos of the Colombian commandos being filleted with machetes, by Haitians in the fields. We all saw the top tier horror videos from Haiti after they captured those Colombians.
