Operation Just Cause refers to which operation?

• A. Invasion of Panama to remove Noriega
• B. Invasion of Grenada
• C. Invasion of Kuwait
• D. Invasion of Iraq

Answer: (A)

Operation Just Cause refers to the United States’ 1989 invasion of Panama aimed at removing General Manuel Noriega from power, restoring democratic governance, and securing the Panama Canal and the safety of American citizens in the region. It began in December 1989 and ended with Noriega’s capture in early 1990. This distinguishes it from the Grenada invasion in 1983 (Operation Urgent Fury) and the later invasions of Kuwait and Iraq, which were part of different campaigns.
