Where was Heinz when all of this was taking place? I believe answering that question will lead to great insight. The Kissinger report of the National Bipartisan Commission on Central America seems like a good starting point.

Proposition: US covert ops in Central America served as a cover for the drug trade. Iran-Contra was the cover-up, not the scandal.
