And as for Grenada, that was a strategic manuever to prevent the Soviets from establishing a satellite in the Western Hemisphere in violation of the Monroe Doctrine. Not to mention, there were American citizens on Grenada that were in danger. And the operation was accomplished with relatively minute loss of life.
Actually, Reagan supported the coup that overthrew Ferdinand Marcos in the Phillippines, if only rhetorically. And the Sandinistas were the real terrorists in Nicaragua, not to mention they were funded by Jimmy Carter. I certainly don't think that the U.S. should have intervened in Central America, but nothing bad happened there solely because of that (of course, nothing good really came of it either).
you forgot to add increased employment, curbed inflation, stimulated economic growth, strengthened national defense, eliminated the threat of nuclear war between the soviet union and the soviet union as a whole, survived being shot, got california out of a huge debt and into a huge surplus of money, and continued to make american the best damn country on the planet. God Bless America and RIP President Reagan, the best leader this world has ever seen.
and oh by the way,this is the last I will say, Reagan wasn't at all the Great Communicator, the real great communicator was Pope John Paul II and Gorbachev
and I want to just say that just because this video shows the crimes the US was involved in, in particular the policy of Reagan dosen't make it envy. for you the truth hurts.
just because I or anyone else opposes the policy or is critical of a man such as Reagan or any other conservative dosen't make them a liberal nor does it make them anti-American, I'll be the first to admit liberals aren't perfect as Clinton did do some drastic political mistakes as both Kennedy,Johnson,and even Franklin Rossevelt and Trumas all did drastic politcal mistakes which costed lives.
All you pussy liberals try to find every negative thing about conservatives you can and throw it in people's faces. What about you guys? You all think you're perfect but you're not. You're a bunch of hypocrites.
this man was stupid beyond reasonable doubt, and this anti-Reagan video you see before you shows that he and his buddies in the CIA plus is extremist in his administration were in direct responsible for the deaths of thousands in Latin America and other parts of the world in which "in the name of fighting communism" innocent lives were taken. in conclusion FUCK RONALD REAGEN The best thing he did in his life was when he was on his death bed,dying
Reagan sucks, he is the representation and symbol of blinded american consumerism, plastic/materalistic americanism, and is the god father of the relgious right's preach of hatred,division,and nazism, Ronald Reagan was completelly unobjective, and had no influence over the fall of communism in the soviet union or eastern europe besides his fancy speeches that all of you very much applaud due to being simply naive. .
That man was a saint compared to what idot they have now he was the main force of bringing down that dam berlin wall sure not eveny dicsion that you make will be liked but he did more good for the world then bad
First the 70,000 people killed in El Salvador were killed by the Communist guerillas who were trying to prevent the people of El Salvador from voting in democratic elections. Second the 100,000 people killed in Guatemala were killed in a civil war that started back in 1964, 17 years before Reagan even became president.
In Nicaragua, the communist governement was sending weapons and troops to assist the communist guerillas in toppling El Salvador.Reagan never supported the dictatorship in Argentina becasue it was defeated by Britain in the Falklands War and was toppled soon after. Reagan invaded Grenada due to the fact that several hundred Americans were trapped there and that the Marxist government was allowing Cuba to send weapons and money to communist guerillas.
How come you don't make a video about Bill Clinton, after all he killed civilians in missile strikes in Iraq and Sudan. Or what about the 1 million people in Rwanda that were slaughtered in the genocide that Clinton wouldn't even admit was a genocide. What about the civilians killed in Kosovo in missile strikes or the Chinese journalists killed when the missile hit the Chinese embassy? How come you didn't make a video of Bill Clinton saying he'll burn in hell?
You're right, Bill Clinton will also burn in hell for his anti-poor, anti-third world stances and military actions. I encourage you to make that video!
very disrespectful that was the most one sided piece of garbage ive ever seen. why dont you post the reasons why he took those military actions. well because he wanted to oust the commies who weren't so nice people you make him seem like hitler and he is nothing of the sort

You're right. America should have either
[A] backed the even-uglier alternatives to the dictators America funded,
[B] sent its own troops to die in unwinnable inevitable wars, instead of fighting by proxy,
or
[C] left each country to sink or swim.
Mr Reagan was indeed horrible compared to the alternatives available to America during the time both at home and abroad.
