I may have come in at the tail end of this one, so excuse me if I'm off
base, but I think it is important to remember that the Grenadian Revolution
was four years old (it started in '79), and over the last four years
the Bishop government tried several times to normalize relations with the US
(much like the Nicaraguans have done over the last four years), but the
Reagan Administration is/was not interested in negotiations -- they'd 
rather use military force to get their way.

Of course you can't blame Reagan for avoiding *diplomatic* talks since 
he doesn't have the intellect to conduct them. (come on folks, the guy
*is* a fool)
