The Panama Deception
A provocative look at the December 1989 U.S. invasion of Panama, including the events leading up to it, the destruction it heaped upon local citizens and the terrible aftermath. It's wonderfully researched, and shows how the U.S. government duped both the American public and the mainstream media about this foreign policy disaster. Although a decade old, The Panama Deception details how the U.S. government coddles up to tyrants, repeatedly lies to a gullible American public and then creates absurd foreign policy charades to further hidden policies. Sound familiar?
