What Happened To The Revolution - Nicaragua

Uploaded by: journeymanpictures
Video Description:
Oct 1996
As Daniel Ortega looks set to claim victory in Nicaragua's presidential elections, we consider the transformation of the Sandinista guerrila movement into a modern day political force. Once, the Sandinistas led a violent and bloody revolution against the country's ruling elite. Now, we profile the revolutionaries who have exchanged their guns for the ballet box.

This world is ruled by the devil mind of manhood. If we just love to each other and help each other then we will live in a better world. But that will never happen

no man. anybody who beleives in true freedom, would not support somozas leadership. it was a dictatorship. poor ppl didnt have a place then. BUT ill agree daniel hasnt done much. he just ruined things more. but dont say fuck sandismo, sandino was a good man. being sandinista is good, being danielista isnt. he basically took advantage of a good thing that could have happend. ppl followed him blindly, wich was the mistake. poor ppl did need more rights but now theres just even more poor ppl.

Thats whats wrong ... ( 1 month ago by rhazagul)

Thats whats wrong with this country, these poor peasants have grown into this type of government under Ortega's communistic ways, they know NO better, sad to see such ignorance, look at what the woman says, shes not ashamed to be a Sandinista, yet all she has is dead sons to show for her loyalty. Ridiculous.

well, beiing ... ( 1 month ago by tit0martinez)

well, beiing sandinista does not mean beiing danielsta. I consider myself a sandinist because of my ideal but i totally disagree with my current government or with the fsln party. Thats something most outsiders dont understand.
About her dead sons, thats not the sandinistas fault. Thats the consequense of ronald reagans dirty war.

wow what a big mess ... ( 1 month ago by tit0martinez)

wow what a big mess they made on this article.
Daniel ortega is not the fsln, and the party did not make the revolution, the party was made after the revolution, and the revolution was made by the nicaraguan people, thats why its called "the POPULAR reavolution"

The FSLN party ... ( 1 month ago by rhazagul)

The FSLN party allows Ortega to use the party to his convenience, so in other words, if it has fur, eats cheese and has a tail its probably a rat... amirite? It was no revolution...it was a devolution really.

Ortega's brother is the owner of Western Union franchise en nicaragua.

this is the best ... ( 4 weeks ago by 2003hog)

this is the best illustration of the unfortunate events that Nicaragua has endured and what is sad is that no one gets it, my uncle has been unemployed for more than 2 years and when I asked him if the international comminity would invest in the country it would be it be good for all? but he replied. I WOULD NOT ALLOW ANY COMPANY TO EXPLOID ME meening he would rather not work. People must force the politicians to be accountable. Account for all the help they get for the benifit of the people

FSLN came to be under Borge, Fonseca et al. in the 1960's, Tito.
So, in other words, you fucking fail

Daniel y el resto ... ( 3 weeks ago by davisonio12)

Daniel y el resto de comandantes lo ùnico que hicieron fue vender a Nicaragua al comunismo para alimentar a cuba y rusia ,pero se olvidò del pueblo de nicaraguay lo unico que hiso fue enrriquecerce el y su familia es una falacia lo que el dice que es para los pobres pero el no vive como pobre o sì?

You: FSLN didn't exist until after the revolution.
Me: yes it did
Conclusion: You are wrong.
Is that clear enough you dolt?

I said it didnt ... ( 3 weeks ago by tit0martinez)

I said it didnt exist as a political party, it obviously existed as a social movement since the 60's

I've no interest in parsing diction with you...as a political entity, the FSLN predates the revolution.

get socialism out ... ( 1 day ago by eddie5334)

get socialism out of there. thats why its the second poorest country in the western hemishphere. when the sandinistas came they came like obama did to the US, hiding behind the word change. Change= communism. 1 out of 10 people work. why work when your neighbor works and you can wait in line for government hand outs. thats what obama brings to the us. LA pinata. break the banks of the rich and we will all have money. problem is if they dont have money, we dont have jobs.

are you kidding me? ... ( 15 hours ago by bhslb13)

are you kidding me?!?! first off... this is the US, not cuba, nicaragua, china or w/e. We actually hold this constitution. we have judicial systems, legislative systems; all the branches. Socialistic tendencies have always been around, the $700 billion bail out?!?!? but this country wont succumb to it. we are to diverse in religion and ethnicity to fall under one man... Comparing obama to communists is obsurd and an insult to the american ppl. That makes 53% of americans comrades i guess...

btw im nicaraguan, ... ( 15 hours ago by bhslb13)

btw im nicaraguan, my dad fought in both wars and he is anti-ortega like most young men that risked there lives who are either dead or living out of the country... its just crazy to compare obama to this...its irrelevant and ignorant. Grow up, and if ure an adult already? take a lesson in political science and marxism and totalitarianism and see what real communism is.

Daniel Ortega ... ( 1 hour ago by DerlingV)
