Just Cause - the real story of Americas high tech invasion of Panama

It seems inconceivable that the United States could wage a war in obscurity. Yet, for security reasons, the U.S. military launched Operation Just Cause, its first full-scale limited-objective war, in a virtual media blackout.

Consequently, myths and misconceptions -- and some deliberate press deceptions -- surround this campaign, which is now being called the dress rehearsal for Operation Desert Storm.

To uncover the story of the operation, military historian Malcolm McConnell spent a year in Panama and at U.S. military bases -- including Saudi Arabia during the Gulf War -- interviewing participants: from the commanding generals Max Thurman and Marc Cisneros to the Infantry grunts, Rangers, and SEALs who fought the battles.
