Answer:

A. South Americans became enraged over American involvement which led to socialist uprisings.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Invasion of Granada, military operation code named Urgent Fury, was a coup d'état to the island nation of Granada by the United States and several other Caribbean nations in response to the coup d'état perpetrated by Hudson Austin and his Cuban-Soviet military alliance. On October 25, 1983, the United States, Barbados, Jamaica and members of the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States disembarked troops in Granada, defeated the resistance of Granada and Cuba and overthrew the government of Hudson Austin.
