Mmmm... narcotrafikking...?.. maybe. But Caribe is the most controlled sea in the world. So controlled, that colombian traffikers has builded submarines to approach to USA shores.
I think that as a base is valuable, but there are other options, as the big Guantanamo base in Cuba.
But forgiving those considerations (sound stupid to even think on them in this moment), Haiti is a country in total collapse. Political, economic and social. Death toll can be as big as 100.000 people, and all major buildings, hospitals, services and infraestructure are in ruins. Even if international aid is generous, it might took DECADES to recover from this disaster and give haitians a hope.
