Many of them have been forced to flee their homeland because of the civil war that has raged there for several years now. This is indeed a tragic situation. and one that should not be ignored. It seems strange to me. however. that little or nothing is said about the refugees of another country in that same region: Nicaragua. For the most part. the U.S. media has ignored the situation that has prevailed there since the Sandinistas seized power in 1979. Seldom do we hear about the nearly 250.000 Nicaraguans who have fled their homeland since that year. but the question must be asked: Why have they fled?
