(This was stated by a high ranking CIA officer and reported in the N.Y. TIMES about 2 months ago). Of course, every once in a while we see Ronnie hold up a shadowy nondiscript picture and point a an amorphous blob and proclaim RUSSIANS!!!! or NICARAGUANS!!!!! or CUBANS!!! > if everyone supported the (nicaraguan) government, there wouln't have >been any rebels for the CIA to support. The rebels supported by the CIA earn approximately *20 times* what the average nicaraguan earns. They have ritually blown up childcare centers, hospitals and have kidnapped, tortured and murdered families. Many of these rebels are ex-Somocista's of the dreaded National Guard. >The CIA does to Nicargua what Nicaragua was already doing to El Salvador >in order to coerce Nicaragua into stopping As I have stated, one of the biggest frustrations of the administration is they have been unable to prove this. >> If they hadn't interfered (CIA) .... the economy and the education >>program would be in much better state by now. >Couldn't we say the same about how things would be in El Salvador if >Nicaragua hadn't interfered? NO!, as long as government sponsored institutionalized terrorism is the ruling force, there will never be peace in El Salvador, Nicaragua or no Nicaragua.
