Lines: 27 JJ, here we go again... The organization of eastern carribean states (is that what they are calling themselves?) ... WHO the (%'&%($ are they? If I recall correctly, this ...POLITICAL... group was formed the weekend before the invasion. Did OAS have anything to do with it? NO. Come on. I agree that MAYBE the cubans were up to a little no good, but do you really think that a cache of vintage 1950 weapons is going to be used to conquer the world? And then you say, JJ, that Andy Berman and I are liars? Wow - do YOU have nerve... Having your own opinion is fine, and I will respect it. But calling me a Liar when you have no basis to do so is kind of shakey... So maybe the CUBANS were lying ... I didn't see the US waving their FREEDOM of the PRESS flag anywhere, either. There were NO PRIVATE reports from the island till more than 48 bloody [sic] hours after the invasion. Call that unbiased reporting - straight from the commandants mouth. And yes - 6000 bloody soldiers ... What is this - do we want a war or what? The US beat the Soviet Union this time. Cuba could not set up a blockade of Grenada. The US acted first and did a good clean job. But WHY? -- Velu Sinha UUCP: {seismo,allegra,brl-bmd}!umcp-cs!velu CSNet: velu@umcp-cs ARPA: velu.umcp-cs@UDel-Relay
