Ironically, another drawback may have been the strong ideological and party link Pratt shares with Gov. Toney Anaya, one of the nation's most liberal. Since he took over in 1982, Anaya has had to defend himself against a host of criticisms from the public and state legislators--ranging from his taking too active a role in national Hispanic politics at the expense of getting things done at home, to his refusal to enforce the death penalty. Some observers believe the governor is proving an albatross around Pratt's neck...
Villalobos' brand of revolutionary pragmatism has appealed to younger Salvadoran rebels, who have flocked to his banner in larger numbers than to Carpio's FPL. It also won acceptance from Cayetano Carpio's junior commanders, led by his deputy, Melida Anaya Montes, 52. At a meeting in January 1983, Cayetano Carpio's own comrades finally rejected his intransigent stance in favor of increasing cooperation with Villalobos' E.R.P. and the rest of the F.M.L.N...
Less than three months after that parley, Anaya Montes was brutally stabbed to death in the Nicaraguan capital of Managua. Her Sandinista hosts at first blamed her death on a "CIA plot." Then Nicaraguan security police arrested six of Cayetano Carpio's closest adherents for the murder, and shortly afterward, the Nicaraguans announced that Cayetano Carpio had shot himself to death in Managua out of s grief at the actions of his colleagues...
Soon a different story emerged. Following a clandestine meeting of its Central Committee last December, the F.P.L. accused its deceased founder of "grave political, ideological and moral deformations," and of ordering Anaya Monies' murder. As a sign of its new, "moderate" direction, it named as Cayetano Carpio's successor Leonel González, 39, a former schoolteacher whose revolutionary specialty is underground organizing. The F.P.L. also acknowledged the breakaway of a more violence-prone splinter faction, the Salvador Cayetano Carpio Revolutionary Workers' Movement...
...reckoning for Galtieri & Co. has been slowly approaching since last November. At that time an official panel concluded that military trials were appropriate. The report suggested that Galtieri and Anaya be charged with failing to provide assistance to Argentine forces on the remote Falklands while British troops closed in. If found guilty of that offense, the pair may be given sentences of death or life imprisonment. Brigadier General Lami Dozo, whose spirited air defense against the British gave Argentina its only consolation in defeat, still faces the possibility of a lengthy prison sentence and dishonorable discharge...
