Abrams was appointed to his administration in August 2001 The shocking news out of Washington recently is that U.S. President George W. Bush has chosen Elliott Abrams to be director of the National Security Council’s office for democracy, human rights and international operations. Talk about putting the fox in charge of the hen house. Mr. Abrams, you may recall, headed the Latin American bureau for the State Department during the Reagan administration. He was forced to plead guilty to two counts of lying to the U.S. Congress about the administration’s Contra program. The charges occurred following events that began in October 1986 when Nicaragua downed a small plane piloted by three Americans. The three had been hired by the U.S. government to ferry weapons to the U.S.-backed anti-government contras – support expressly prohibited by Congress.
