[Peace-discuss] Reagan and God

[C. G. Estabrook]

[If, as many of his fellow citizens believe, Ronald Reagan has had shortly
to appear before the throne of the Most High to give an account of his
stewardship, it must have been a difficult interview. This from someone in
a position to observe Reagan's action sub specie eternitatis, Fr. Miguel
D'Escoto, foreign minister of the government of Nicaragua during the
Reagan administration's attack on that country.  --CGE]

"...I pray that God in his infinite mercy and goodness forgive him for
having been the butcher of my people, for having been responsible for the
deaths of some 50,000 Nicaraguans.  We cannot, we should not ever forget
the crimes he committed in the name of what he falsely labeled freedom and
democracy..."
