Many would agree with you.
I'm going to say that this is truly tragic, what happened to these missionaries. They stayed in spite of the dangerous conditions around them, which truly speaks to their selflessness. They didn't go to Haiti to make a political statement or try to make money/profit off of the people. They went because they believed in helping others.
There's no direct link between the two countries. It's been argued that Kenya wants to increase its presence on the global stage and sees a peacekeeping/law enforcement mission in Haiti as an opportunity to showcase its capabilities in that space.
To be fair, that statement can apply to a number of places around the world (including in the US).
There has been a very unfortunate series of catastrophes that have been environmental, political, and economical....mostly overlapping.
Nap Boule!

Paywalled, but the beginning of the article is interesting enough as far as learning about that family.
