Oh and no civilian causalities Human Rights Watch's 1991 report on Panama in the post-invasion aftermath, stated that even with some uncertainties about the scale of civilian casualties, the figures are "still troublesome" because "[Panama's civilian deaths] reveal that the 'surgical operation' by American forces inflicted a toll in civilian lives that was at least four-and-a-half times higher than military casualties in the enemy, and twelve or thirteen times higher than the casualties suffered by U.S. troops. By themselves these ratios suggest that the rule of proportionality and the duty to minimize harm to civilians, where doing so would not compromise a legitimate military objective, were not faithfully observed by the invading U.S. forces. For us, the controversy over the number of civilian casualties should not obscure the important debate on the manner in which those people died ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_invasion_of_Panama On Fri, 2010-06-04 at 13:42 -0500, Eric Roberts wrote: > Grenada was a hostage rescue if I remember correctly...we used the military > to rescue American students being held in a school.
