Who will stand up and side with the Sandinistas? No one. I say. because I have heard those who are opposed to this resolution and everyone else say how deplorable the Sandinista government is. They do all the things we say. They commit more human rights violations than Somoza ever did. Nearly 100 times as many refugees has left the country during Somoza have fled it since the Sandinistas took over. Oneeighth of their population has left that country. yet some Senators say that the Sandinistas have the people on their side. not the Contras. Funny. how they express that support. is it not?
