-US forces bomb the population, killing more than 3,000+

- The U.S. attacked Panama in 1989 only after five CIA coup attempts failed

- Noriega was another CIA drug-runner

- Damage was estimated at $2 billion

- the economy was left in shambles

- "Democratic" government was restored, but the drug trade continued and a former associate of Noriega, Ernesto Perez Balladeres, was eventually elected president in 1994.

Panama Launches Commission to Investigate Atrocities of 1989 US Invasion

The new initiative will produce the first "truth report" on the U.S. invasion of Panama and could pave the way for reparations for victims

Panama launched a new special commission July 20, 2016 aimed at uncovering the historical truth behind the 1989 U.S. invasion of the Central American country to overthrow the dictator that the CIA had propped up for years.

“We believe that our people should know their history,” said Panamanian Foreign Minister Isabel De Saint Malo, according to La Estrella.

The Truth Commission will investigate the number and identities of people killed and wounded during the U.S. military occupation, as well as the material damages it caused. A new national day of mourning to commemorate the day of the invasion, Dec. 20, 1989, is also expected to come out of the special investigation.

A group of Panamanian experts will spearhead the commission, with oversight from the Association of Relatives and Friends of the Fallen of Dec. 20, 1989, according to local media.


The initiative will aim to fully and transparently uncover the details, according to the Foreign Ministry, which stated that the invasion violated international humanitarian norms and human rights



......

invasion resulted in at least 3,000 civilian and military victims. Many of the bodies remained unidentified after being burnt and piled up in the streets. The U.S. has never compensated the survivors impacted in the invasion or families of victims

OP why are you showing this fake news story. This is a foreign based news site. We can only trust domestic based news information and analysis. If CNN, NPR, and Facebook doesn't talk about this story then it's clearly fake news.
