On Grenadian Grenades?

I came across this tidbit regarding the 1983 American intervention into tiny Grenada and thought it might be of interest to a wider audience. “Although much was made of the weaponry and the contents of 25,000 documents captured by the CIA in the aftermath of the invasion, the former were qualitatively unimpressive and the latter provided sparse evidence of a Soviet-Cuban plot, as insisted by Reagan and other administration officials.” Replace “Reagan” with “Bush II” and “Soviet-Cuban” with “Iraqi-Al Queda” and things begin to sound eerily familiar.
