Iran making push into Nicaragua
2007-12-18
H/T Powerline -- Now the Express News has sent Bensman to Nicaragua and Bensmam has come away with a journalistic bombshell regarding Iran's move into Nicaragua. Bensman's story is "Iran making move into Nicaragua." Is anyone paying attention?
MONKEY POINT, Nicaragua — The second military helicopter in as many days hovered over the jungle and then landed to a most unwelcome reception from several dozen angry Rama Indian and Creole villagers.

Rupert Allen Clear Duncan, a leader of some 400 Creole who live along the shoreline, confronted the foreigners dressed in suits and military uniforms that day in March and demanded to know the purpose of their aerial trespasses. "This is our land; we have always lived here, and you don't have our permission to be here," Duncan spat, when refused the courtesy of an explanation.

#3  Thank you, JosephM. I'm sure it won't have been in vain, in the end. If we've got people in key bits of Africa working against the jihadis, I'm sure we've got someone in that part of the world, too.

#2  Key word: knowingly (also implies admittedly).

Someone better watch it under a loupe. Too close for a comfort... may be another Cuban Crisis before you know it.
