"There has not been enough explaination of why the marines didn't leave
unti a few days ago."

I quote about three net users here, and I wonder where they
have been for the last six weeks.  You may remember then the
"temporary" government of Grenada asked the marines to stay
until they were sure they could handle things.  That seems like
enough of an explaination to me.  

Of course you didn't hear anything about Grenada in the last few
weeks, and you didn't hear what the marines were doing.

Why?

The news media found out that the population of the US more or less
AGREED with the "invasion", so they lost interest, since they
(the new media) are simply unwilling to aid support to something
that is well thought of.

This is my Christmas Flame.

Have a happy Midwinter's Day!
