Targeted: Pineapple Face Noriega History Channel 9pmET/PT
Edited on Mon Jan-26-04 08:58 PM by seemslikeadream
General Manuel Antonio Noriega was on the CIA's payroll long before becoming Panama's strongman. The U.S. funded his army under Nixon, Ford, Carter, and Reagan; meanwhile, the dictator used torture, witchcraft, and Santeria to keep detractors at bay and citizens in line. But the U.S. wasn't about to let him control the Panama Canal and indicted him for drug trafficking. In 1989, after a U.S. Marine was killed at a roadblock, Bush launched the largest military invasion in history to target a single man.
