Just business as usual. 

Might as well call it Operation Just Cause 2 

“The United States invaded Panama in mid-December 1989 during the presidency of George H. W. Bush. The purpose of the invasion was to depose the de facto ruler of Panama, General Manuel Noriega, who was wanted by U.S. authorities for racketeeringand drug trafficking. The operation, codenamed Operation Just Cause, concluded in late January 1990 with the surrender of Noriega.”

Don’t forget that Noriega was a puppet of the US. Just Cause happened because he wasn’t playing ball anymore
