Bring Back The Haitian Army - YES or NO?

Haitian president Michel Martelly is taking steps to re-establish the Haitian army but Opposition leaders are saying NO WAY... What do you say?

President Martelly says...

"We need an army who can react in case of Natural catastrophe... We need a force who can react in case of riots (What MINUSTAH is doing right now) We need a force with a medical corps, an engineering corps... who can help protect our border... who can help with reforestation... It's an opportunity to create jobs... To have Haitians defending their country..."

The Opposition... Senator Moise Jean-Charles says...

"We need to strengthen the national police and build departments inside it to secure the country... Why would the international community fund an army? We don't have anyone we're going to war with.."

President Martelly says...

"If we don't need a force, then why do we have a foreign force today?"

What do you say?

Avoir l'intuition de retourner avec l'armee D'haiti.

d'une maniere ou d'une autre ce ne serait pas une mauvaise idee mais il fallait que cette nouvelle armee serait une instutition proffessionaliste.

Avoir des anciens echelons qui possedaient deja une formation authentique, pour ainsi dire une base plus ou moins credible.

I say hell yea on the idea of bring back the army forces to Haiti...I mean the police forces is useless they can't do shit to maintain all these problems with all the violence n kidnapping that's going on....I left Haiti when I was a kid n I haven't being there in 20 yrs I'm ready to head back where my heart desires, but we have too many issues going on. I totally agree with what President Martelly is focus on, reconstrucked the army forces, bring all the past president(s) to the table for the reconstruction of Haiti, now its the time for all of us to look the country and said what can I do to help of the reconstruction of our country!!! No time to fight for power now....our country needs our help, so lets making it happen ( peyi m, moun mwen...Haiti pou mwen pou ou, pou nou tout....so lets fix
