Democraticaly elected government ??. What a naive thought !!. How can anyone call those elections democratic ?. The opposition in Nicaragua didn't have the same media coverage as the government did. All the media is government owned except for one newspaper - "La Prensa". Did you know that this newspaper has to send to the censorship office its daily edition before it can be published ?. Every day about half of the newspaper articles are censored and banned from being published. Just like in the USSR, the people read, see and hear what their government wants them to know, nothing else. The Nicaraguan government is a Marxist- Leninist dictatorship, let's call it by its name. If you think the Nicaraguan government will ever allow press freedom (or any other basic freedom most of you take for granted), you're being very naive. If we don't act now and do whatever we can to throw them out, we'll be sorry for a long time as we see country by country in Central America falling to Marxism. By then, it'll be too late. -- Eduardo Krell UCLA Computer Science Department ekrell@ucla-locus.arpa ..!{sdcrdcf,ihnp4,trwspp,ucbvax}!ucla-cs!ekrell
