    The comment was very ambiguous, and I had a feeling they had something in particular in mind. If they showed the one they were thinking about, we could better talk about the same thing.

      The Iran-Contra affair is an infamous part of American history. It’s not exactly a hard to find thing.

      Why should they talk with you on a subject it’s woefully clear you know nothing about?

      “Contras” is not ambiguous. That would be like calling the “Mujahideen” ambiguous. It’s a real group with a name and historical record, and the US government funded them because they were fighting eViL GoMmUniSm.

      Oh yeah, the US funded and armed the Mujahideen (aka precursors of the Taliban) too, by the way. Same story different name/continent. amerikkka-clap
