3. Felicitaciones al pueblo del Salvador
I became friends years ago with a Salvadoran who was in the US illegally. He worked odd jobs and sent money back to his family...those who survived the death squads, that is. My friend must be very happy today.

The grip of the oligarchs is loosening all over Latin America. This is a welcome development! :yourock:

4. This is good.


Reminds me of the heady days of the Sandinista's. I love the spirit of Latin America!!

6. It's interesting that all of South-America is turning left, when all of Europe is turning right...
... mostly extreme-right, that is.

After Venezuela, Bolivia, Argentina, Brazil, Ecuador and Paraguay, now El Salvador is turning into the right direction.
