Description:

For over three years the U.S. goverrtment and mass media carried out a largely successful propaganda campaign that paved the way for the invasion and occupation of Panama—dubbed "Operation Just Cause" by the Pentagon. This book counters the media bUtz that portrayed the invasion as a restoration of democracy and a war against drugs. It details the horrors of the invasion as experienced by the civilian population and documents the "operation's" criminal character, thus providing the truth behind the U.S. invasion of Panama.


Of course the invasion of Panama violated international and U.S. law. It was a physical assault of stunning violence. It was a time for testing new equipment with no concern for human lives.

Ramsey Clark

We're smaller than Delaware. Our armed forces were smaller than the New York City Police Department. And we were a threat to the United States!

Mario Rognoni
Former Minister of Commerce and Industry

Panama has been brought into the era of common graves, disappeared people, war refugees and the ransacking of homes.

Olga Mejia
President of the National Human Rights Commission of Panama

At 1 a.m. one of my children woke me up; he knocked on the door and said, "Mama, they invaded Panama." I went out into the street to fight.

Edilma Icaza
Representative of the Indigenous Peoples of Panama
