Quote by Bianca Jagger
There is a question for which we will never know the answer: had the U.S. not launched the Contra war to overthrow the Sandinista government, would they have succeeded in bringing socioeconomic justice to the people of Nicaragua?
Summary
This quote suggests that there is an unanswered question about whether the United States' intervention in the form of the Contra war hindered the possibility of achieving socio-economic justice in Nicaragua under the Sandinista government. It implies that the outcome might have been different if the intervention hadn't occurred, but since it did, we can never know for certain what could have been achieved. The quote poses a historical what-if scenario, highlighting the uncertainty surrounding the long-term impact of external interventions on achieving societal goals.
