    Glad to see some cooperation among nations to help people from different countries.

    Nobody is any-less human because of where they live.

      It’s not the first intervention in Haiti.

      The reason that both a lot of Haitians and a lot of countries didn’t want another international intervention was because the prior ones tended to wind up with everyone unhappy and complaining about the situation. The most recent one was UN aid after the earthquake. The UN force that was sent included some soldiers out of some country that had cholera, which started a cholera outbreak, which wound up with angry Haitians who calling for reparations and countries who felt unappreciated for what they were doing.

      Looks like it was some soldiers from Nepal.
