Honduras and Costa Rica must be saying. "With friends like this. who needs enemies?" Do we really waut to transform them into a giant rofugee camp. another Lebanon? Do Honduras and Costa Rica want to yield their sovereignty to the U.N. Commissioner on Refugees or to the Red Cross? And the appropriation to the Contadora group of $4 million to implement a peace treaty is a triumph of hope over commonsense. since this bill encourages surrender. disarmament. and permanently decapitates the Contras by permanently prohibiting military assistance to the democratic resistance. no matter what. How in the world are they going to have any incentives to negotiate? We offer those of whom the Washington Post yesterday said we owe a "decent concern." we offer them disarmament. surrender. and refugee status. We turn Central America into an area of guaranteed instability. which is a euphenism for concentration camps for thousands of refugees. This is not mere indifference. This is despair.
