The 82nd Airborne was in route under the name Operation Valient Dragon until former President Jimmy Carter struck an agreement. If they wouldn't have made an agreement, when Jimmy Carter left the buiding he was to make a specific hand signal and the 504 Devils would have overrun Port Au Prince in a matter of minutes...Since they did come to an agreement the 82nd was turned back and the mission was handed over to 10th Mountain Division under the new name Uphold Democracy

It's a shame, misfortune just seems to keep falling on Haiti. They held a successful slave revolt, yet today they still suffer.
so much violence. sucks bro. #prayforhaiti
My family is from Haiti, so this is close to home. Haiti was the first country in the Caribbean to gain their independence. It's so sad how it came to this. They just want the same opportunities as everyone else who comes to the United states. They are trying to escape the poverty and dismantled government.
Haiti has struggled so much, its a damn shame all the things that befall them.
Oh gosh this must have been a huge, huge, huge struggle for Haiti.
hurts my heart to see how Haitians continue to struggle, very sad video.
