My opinions on it only got me a B+ in my Politics Science thesis ;-)

That country is such a mess, I don't know where to start anymore. How about this, I have friends who trained contras in Honduras. I have friends who were contras. I have friends who were shot. I know land owners who were killed when they refused to sign over property to the Sandinistas. And I have personal accounts of paying extra taxes to Somoza because the Guardia showed up with automatic weapons to make extra "tax collections" - so many, many stories.
