"Also if the Sandinasta were so great why did they need to commit political oppression to stay in power? Oh wait, I forgot, I guess the population of Nicaragua didn't know what was good for them and the Sandinastas did the only honourable thing of forcing them to accept their rulership." The sandinistas committed a popular revolution, and the Contras used the same tactics as them (just more often) and would have been ready to aid and abet the same type of "privatization" that lately was such a smashing success in Iraq. The nature of the Sandinista's oppression has already been supplied (by me) and the only reason I prefer them over the Contras is because all proxies the CIA had supported until then had *greater* tendencies to make people's lives "interesting" in a very Chinese manner than any of the evil socialists they were paid to combat.

The people of Nicaragua were worse of before the popular revolution, yet this doesn't clean the hands of the Sandinistas. Didn't say that, but I did remind everyone that all ultra-right proxies of the CIA before the Contras had erected hell on earth and allowed liquification of the economies in every country they took over. The Contras were no different.
"Please forgive me for my insolence Chairperson Xel." No I won't. Flee to Florida and whine, bitch.
"Which is that the US intervention sent Nicaragua away from the course of totalitarianism, Nicaragua in recent years has done enormous amounts to reduce corruption in the government and the Sandinastas are now just another political party instead of a savage milita." The Nicaraguans kindly gave the Sandinistas the finger partly because their policies weren't the best for the country, partly because America had used terrorism against Nicaragua ever since it had the temerity to resist the Contras. Why do you think it is still a party and not ripped out of the ledgers and purged from the schoolbooks? Because the CIA failed to put their own version of Stalin in charge.
