As I already stated, of the
784 Cubans on the island, about
40 were members of the Cuban armed
forces. The remaining consisted mostly
of teachers, doctors, and middle-aged
construction workers helping build the
new airport.

I stated that Reagan's ultimate
goal was to undermine the Bishop
regime and in fact, he had been
working to achieve this objective.

The invasion of Grenada had been
planned by the Reagan administra-
tion as far back as 1981. In fact,
there were mock invasion, military
exercises on the island of Viequas
off of the island of Puerto Rico.
Viequas happens to be similar in
topography to Grenada. This had been
in the works, so to speak, for at
least two years before October of 1983.

The Reagan administration had been
conducting a very organized and con-
certed campaign of political, economic,
diplomatic destabilization of the Bishop
government, the revolutionary government
of Prime Minister Maurice Bishop, from
the time Reagan came into office.

THIS IS A WELL UNDERSTOOD FACT.

You haven't offered a shred of evidence
which justifies the invasion of the island,
nor can you.

The fact is, there could have been 100,000
Cuban solders on the island and you still
wouldn't be able to justify this illegal
invasion.

1) There has never been any evidence
which suggests the airport was going to be
used for military purposes. Period.

2) There has never been any evidence
which suggests that those medical
students were in danger.

3) There was no justifiable reason to
illegally invade Grenada.

4) For someone who claims to cherish
libertarian ideals, you sure don't
mind government intervention so long
as it's carried out by one of your
so-called "conservative" butt buddies.
