Hanan, we 'invaded' Haiti, Panama, Grenada?
Man, we were there long enough to do a simple chore and left. THAT is analogous to saying the cops INVADE a drug dealer's house.
C'mon.
Wikipedia is full of shit.

What will be a definition of "invasion", f. ex. as in "home invasion"? You come to my house uninvited, break the door & furniture for whatever reason you decide is justified, raide my fridge & eat my food, shit on my carpet, maybe sleep with my daughter (or wife, if I had any) without consent, stay for a night or two, or maybe for a month, install a couple of goons as organizers for after you leave, and take off when the neighbors start screaming?
"I don't like you and the way you run your household, so I'm taking over". Won't fly.

Somehow the US military actions in Somalia and the former Yugoslavia aren't considered "invasions"? I'm sure they have some reason that's better than they were conducted under Clinton's watch. The one conspicuous non-invasion was Rwanda, hence the need for an International Criminal Tribunal for that country now. Allowing genocide was no great feat, even if it did allow us to escape the righteous indignation of The Mighty Wikipedia.

Well then Hanan...
We'd have a syphillitic cocaine king in Panama.
Half the people in Haiti would be buried with burnt rubber tires around their necks.
And a few dozen medical students would be DOA.
You tellin' me THAT FLYS amigo?
