Grenada and Nicaragua were not justified by any stretch. Only in paranoiac rwnj land, still longing for the cold war.

Then how do you answer the fact that in the minutes of the Granadian Politburo, the Communists ruling the island noted “Airstrip will be used for Cuban and Soviet military”? The threat of Soviet bombers based near the US was a valid fear, given the situation back in the first part of the 1980’s.

And what would you have done about a Sandanista regime that was supporting insurgencies in neighboring countries, acting as a conduit for Soviet AKMs and RPGs?
