- The series in progress aims to spread the documented evidence
- surrounding U.S. policy towards Nicaragua and indeed the entire
- region.
-
- The pretended interest by some apologists for U.S. aggression in my
- views on certain matters, especially, human rights abuses committed by
- Sandinista soldiers, will not deter the progress of the series, nor
- can it be taken as anything but pretense and "concern for human rights
- only com[ing] into play when it is .. political[ly] advantag[eous]",
- but they merit addressing both for "everyone else" following the
- series and because of the deeper issues they help uncover.
-
- Since I've recently written to an acquaintance regarding these
- protestations and shows of pretended concern, that will serve as a
- draft to be expanded upon which I will post shortly.
-
- If there are any broader or related issues of concern I welcome email
- at harelb@math.cornell.edu so that I may more fully address them,
- since my reading of the UseNet has become limited to quite irregular
- intervals due to co-moderation of misc.activism.progressive and other
- projects.
