‘Nicaragua: New Challenges’
The Times perfects its blind spot on Nicaragua with its editorial “Nicaragua: New Challenges.”
The Times calls the negative and belligerent posture by the Sandinistas “ominous and perplexing”--as if this is a revelation. Yet The Times then says this is not a reason for Contra funding. That sentiment is proof-positive that The Times will bend over backwards to give the benefit of the doubt to a polished clique of Soviet puppets, rather than give any credit to Nicaraguan campesinos struggling for freedom.
At this point, no hasty truce can put out the fires that will continue to rage over the disclosures of true Sandinista military intentions by defector Maj. Roger Miranda Bengoechea.
Contra aid will continue. The resistance will continue to grow. And the cause of liberty will continue to triumph.
