...weaved, aware of the uproar that such a declaration would cause. The Administration would not seek to overthrow the Sandinistas, he explained, if they agreed to "say Uncle" and put in place a more pluralistic form of government that would include the contra rebels who have been fighting the Marxist-Leninist regime. "You can say we're trying to oust the Sandinistas by what we're saying," he noted opaquely, and returned to his oral bashing of the Nicaraguan regime. "I don't think the Sandinistas have a decent leg to stand on. What they have done is totalitarian...
...centerpiece of this sun culture is Miami. In the past 25 years, the city has gone from the nation's vacation and retirement capital to an international metropolis with a predominantly Latin beat. In a sense, its modern founder is Fidel Castro, whose Marxist revolution forced tens of thousands of rich and middle-class Cubans to flee to Florida.

But, he said, the church has a limited role in solving "concrete problems." If that was less...
...progress that Duarte has been making since his inauguration last June. Since then, the number of murders attributed to death squads has dramatically decreased, and extreme right-wing opposition to civilian rule has appeared to diminish. In addition, last October's meeting at La Palma between Duarte and Marxist guerrilla leaders, followed six weeks later by a second round of talks in Ayagualo, held out hope that the bloody Salvadoran civil war, which has claimed upwards of 50,000 lives over the past five years, might just be ended...
