How about under the Contras? Nicaragua was never under the Contras. Yes, it was. The Contras were the guys in power before the Sandinistas took over. During the war there where abuses committed by both the Contras and the Sandanistas. A number of the Contra leaders where rather unappealing characters, but I believe the Contra revolution helped create the conditions that allowed for the current freer less abusive regime in Nicaragua. I think thigns turned out about as well as could have been expected. Neither the Sandanistas nor the former Somoza supporters ended up in power. Nonetheless, it was the Sandinistas and not the Contras who introduced free elections. And yet Reagan supported the Contras. ted
