The freedom fighters opened the doors and invited the hungry people of the area to take what they needed. The freedom fighters are inside Nicaragua today because we made a commitment to them. They have done what Congress asked. they have proven their effectiveness. Can we. as a moral people. a moral nation. withdraw that commitment now and leave them at the mercy of the Sandinista regime? Or turn them forever into refugeesrefugees from the country for which they are making such a heroic sacrifice? What message will that send to the world. to our allies and friends in freedom? What message will it send to our adversariesthat America is a fairweather friend. an unreliable ally?
