Summary: Better Stuff to come
Comment: I am very familiar with the work of Richard Delgaudio. I have to say that this book was better than his other book "China Doll" but I believe his next work will far surpass "Peril in Panama."

While Richard Delgaudio was in Panama, he was able to take a lot of pictures. He should be publishing his photos next year that will shock the world.

Summary: Panamanian concerned about influence of Red China in Panama
Comment: Richard Delgaudio has traveled to Panama six times so far, has met with me and so many others from my country, has seen what is going on firsthand, and this book together with his sequel, Still a Just Cause, the Last and Next Battle for the Panama Canal, is an excellent account of the situation here and well worth reading for policymakers in both countries and all those who wish to exert an influence on Panama-USA policy and future relations between our two countries, so important for us both. Having testified before a U.S. House of Representatives hearing thanks to the good work of Richard Delgaudio and other U.S. friends and spoken at his Panama Canal Symposium, this book contains original research on the growing influence of the Peoples Republic of China here in Panama and why American and Panamanian patriots ought to be concerned about the threat to the sovereignty of Panama and the national security of our friends in the United States. For anyone interested in national security issues and the devastating economic impact of a Panama Canal closure on the U.S. economy (not to mention my nation's economy) I highly recommend this book and its sequel, as a citizen of Panama, as a journalist, university professor and as a concerned friend of the United States.

Summary: How Could Our National Leaders Let This Happen?
Comment: This book describes the events that have transpired, allowing Red China to become the gatekeepers of the Panama Canal by proxy. The Clinton administration as well as Congress share the blame for not exercising America's option to rescind the 1977 Carter-Torrijos Treaty in the name of national security. All that has been accomplished is to give the Red Chinese a staging area for launching medium-range missiles on America; not to mention the very real risk of impeding the transport of American military vehicles in times of crisis. In short, the Peril in Panama is not an IF proposition, but a WHEN proposition. The short-term myopic (non-)response of the President and Congress IS going to result in a long-term national/military crisis. The nature of the crisis and when it can be expected are not certain. But there will be a crisis of national security to be sure. Protecting citizens from threats, both foreign and domestic, are one of the few responsibilities of the federal government. So why aren't our national leaders doing their job? Every freedom-loving American needs to read this booklet and contact their Senators/Representative to demand action.
