Is Eron Contra Complicated?

The story of iron contra is really a out all the weird contortions that it gets you into when you will do anything to prevent a country from falling into the hands of the soviets. The national security council was going against the wishes of the c i a, and the head of the state department didn't know. It's we were selling weapons to the aronians to get money to give to a militia who was trying to overthrow the government of nicaragua. You can describe it in one sentence. So i think the best way to think about iron contra is not as one scandal, but as two completely separate scandals, one or the other.
