As for the "40,000" killed by death squads in El Salvador, where is that figure from, "The Nation?" I like to think I'm reasonably current on these things, and I've never seen a figure CLOSE to that magnitude before...I'm NOT saying Andy Berman's wrong, just trying to get a source to consider... Uh, speaking of hypocrisy, Andy.... --- das
