  1. USA Likes Dominica - not!

    Big joke. We are their friends and have to go through this garbage protocol to get entry when last year they (USA) let in around 90,000 ‘refugees’ into their country just like that. They filled in no forms, paid no fees.

    All were from countries that have no historical friendly ties with the USA. Yes, they just walked in. Got a passport, a driving licence, $100 in their pocket and all the welfare they needed.

    • What sort of historical friendship Dominica ever had with the United States of America? I was born in Dominica, and now an American citizen, as far as I know there has never been any special relationship between America and Dominica, or any of the Caribbean islands for that matter period!

      You had better be thankful they are issuing visas to Dominicans at this time. Dating back to World War II America and the allies established bases on the islands of Trinidad, Barbados, St. Lucia, Antigua Cuba and Guyana in South America, with US Marines, and other Military personal stationed on the bases!.

      The Islands I mentioned all inherited the airport left behind operating as International Airports today. They try to build an airport precisely where Melville Airport is located, in the late (1940’s), Dominicans procrastinated, the money was always finished because our people like to thief, and stole more of the money than what went into the construction of the Airport.

      Some made the argument they do not want Americans in Dominica, because they will rape our women, and do something I cannot mention to them with a bottle. The war ended and we were left with the boulders, and open land; the Americans left without completing the Airport. So to come here and spread this lie, about relationship with America, you are talking about something do not know what you are talking about!

      There has never been any special relationship with America and the English speaking islands of the Caribbean! And don’t mention the went into Grenada, and free Grenadians from communism, there interest was to defeat the Soviet Union, and Cuba! If Dominicans did not like to pussy foot and thief, we would have got an International Airport for free!

      I do not know where you get this figure ninety-thousand refuges, do you work for the United States Immigration and Naturalization Services; where do you get this figure from?
