Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega has been leading attempts to secure peace and stability in the country since violence erupted in April.Back to death squads to combat "socialism"?

Ortega has had a target on his back since the Sandinista overthrow of dictator and US stooge Anastasio Somoza Debayle.
I was in Nicaragua in 1978, two years before he was assassinated. I happened to see him by chance, but did not meet him. He was surrounded by bodyguards in uniform carrying assault rifles. He was in a suit, wearing sunglasses indoors, of course.
