War by the Sandinistas against their people will continue even if things appear quiet. Thats the nature of communism. The tortured in the Sandinista political prisons. where record numbers are held. dont get to hold press conferences with the New York Times. Without such democratization. we are threatened by a Soviet base in Nicaragua. like Cubabut connected to fledgling democracies with porous bordersand vast numbers of refugees who can only vote with their feet. The facts are before us. I urge my colleagues to consider the degree to which they are ignoring Sandinista wrongs and take a new look at their position in regards to support for the Nicaraguan democratic resistance.
