Aid to Contras in Nicaragua
- Share via
The hour of darkness approaches. The Red Tide is running in Latin America. The Soviets have established a beachhead in Managua and their plans for aggression are self-evident to anyone who would care to peruse some satellite photos. Nicaragua is attempting a full mobilization of its population as it progressively wipes out freedom and attempts to build an atheistic state based upon the blasphemies of Karl Marx.
What stands between their plans for regional hegemony and its actual fruition? At this point, just a small band of ill-fed freedom fighters and disaffected peasants who are trying to liberate their motherland and bring it back into the side of liberty and freedom.
Write your congressman! Urge him to support our President’s request for funds to help these brave freedom fighters. Let’s send them anti-tank rockets, mortars, and assorted small arms. Let’s mine their harbors, shut down their ports and give those communists an early ticket to hell.
