‎"A la fois récit impartial et sévère réquisitoire, il a la valeur d’un document : il éclaire d’une lumière crue un événement que le rôle joué aujourd’hui encore par la force dans le domaine internationale a rendu possible, mais qu’une grande partie de l’opinion publique dans le monde a condamné. On y voit une grande puissance — la plus forte de toutes — intervenir brusquement dans les affaires intérieures d’un petit pays, simplement parce que ses services de renseignements prétendent avoir décelé dans le camp révolutionnaire qui réclame le rétablissement de la Constitution une cinquantaine de communistes prêts à se saisir du pouvoir. Mais ce n’est là qu’un prétexte, tout comme l’intention affirmée de sauvegarder la sécurité des résidents américains ; en réalité l’intervention avait été décidée parce que les Etats-Unis considéraient que leurs intérêts étaient liés à la droite et à l’extrême-droite en République Dominicaine, et en premier lieu à ceux des militaires qui étaient pour le maintien des traditions dictatoriales et policières du régime de Trujillo." ‎
