That reminded me of the US invading Grenada in 1983 with the excuse of protecting American citizens over there but actually, the real reasons were: The US was panicky and did not want Grenada to be influenced by its neighbor Cuba and also the far-away Soviet Union.
My doctor was in the medical school there at the time and was a hostage of the Cubans.
Until the Marines got to the school.
Besides the US, there were 6 other nations there. All Caribbean Nations.
In Grenada today, October 25th is a Holiday. It is called Thanksgiving to commemorate the US " invasion" ( They see it differently than you do evidently)
Saint George University built a monument to honor the Americans that died liberating them and they conduct a memorial ceremony every year.
