...unassuming young man who bought a ticket for Berth 51 on the 1,747-passenger SuperFerry 14 sailing from Manila to Bacolod and Davao on Feb. 26 called himself Arnulfo Alvarado. If security officials in the Philippines checked ferry-passenger lists?they don't?the name would have set off deafening alarm bells. Arnulfo Alvarado, say Philippine officials, was the name of a member, now dead, of the Abu Sayyaf terrorist group. Two other Abu Sayyaf operators have used Alvarado's name to carry out previous attacks, according to Philippine intelligence officers. This Alvarado, whose real name was Redondo Cain...
President-elect Moscoso takes office with enough troubles already. She lacks a legislative majority, and any concession allowing the U.S. military back into Panama would be unpopular. Moscoso picked up her political acumen from her late husband, though a 46-year age gap separated her from the former President, Arnulfo Arias. His career provides a sobering lesson. Arias was elected three times, and each time the army deposed him. Diplomats in Panama say Moscoso knows she must tread cautiously. She has vowed to keep politics out of the handover, entrusting the canal's operations to the autonomous Panama Canal Authority...
...Archbishop was speaking of the murder of the six Jesuits, who taught at the University of Central America, one of the country's most respected ! institutions and a center for leftist theological activism.

The government promptly ordered an investigation, hinting that the rebels were responsible. But the brutal massacre was widely believed...
Endara, a political disciple of the late Panamanian President Arnulfo Arias, ran a spirited campaign in the three months before the May 7 voting. Washington funneled some $10 million in campaign funds to the opposition, evidently hoping that if Endara and his running mates won, Noriega would be forced to reach an accommodation with them. As Panamanians turned out in large numbers to cast their ballots, Endara had reason to be confident: polls showed he was favored over Duque by at least 2 to 1 and perhaps by as much as 3 to 1. But Noriega apparently deluded himself into...
With the judicial odds favoring D'Aubuisson, why did Duarte choose this time to evoke the ghost of Arnulfo Romero? The U.S. had long ago supplied all the essential details to El Salvador, including the gist of Garay's testimony, the whereabouts of Saravia, and D'Aubuisson's alleged complicity. "We've known that almost from Day 1," said a Reagan Administration source. Duarte, he added, "is playing politics. He's had this in his back pocket for a long time...
