Moreover. the Contras will not be able to succeed in imposing a different government in Nicaragua. a point which is now conceded even by our own commanders. including General Gorman. Finally. it will backfire in terms of isolating us from the Contadora countries who oppose the Contra funding. It will also confirm in the minds of the Nicaraguan people their beliefs about U.S. imperialism making possibilities for the future friendship between our two peoples less likely. Until there is a peaceful settlement. any aid will only prolong the murder and mayhem. Once there is a ceasefire and negotiations begin. then we should be dealing with the question of refugee resettlement. First. however. we must stop contributing. directly or indirectly. to the creation of these refugees.
