=== Invasion of Panama ===

As President, Bush continued Reagan's [[war on drugs]]. In 1989 he ordered 24,000 troops United States troops into [[Panama]] to capture one time anti-communist ally General [[Manuel Noriega]], the dictator of Panama, and return him to the United States to face drug charges after Noriega made comments that could be interpreted as threatening the United States. Noreiga eluded the first effort to capture him and reached the Vatican embassy where he sought asylum.  After a standoff which included 24 hour high powered lights and a constant blaring of the Billy Ray Cyrus song ''Achy Breaky Heart'' at the embassy, a deal was reached where Noreiga was released to United States custody.  In 1992, Noriega was sentenced to serve 40 years in prison.
