Reagan's Jeane Kirkpatrick, said they were not "just nuns", but political activists.

Regan's Alexander Haig said "there may have been an exchange of gunfire" as "they tried to run a roadblock." Maybe and maybe not?

who would that be? I thought he was killed by some Columbian fellow?
Trying to find the source again quickly. But: Roberto D'Aubuisson, who was in charge of the death squads, went to the School of the Americas - which is at Fort Benning. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar_Romero
The next year, America's School was involved in the El Mazote massacre http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Mozote_massacre
