Salvador

1:33:05

The Sandinistas have entered the war. We
know major equipment is being unloaded.

1:33:09

- Possibly troops, too.
- Any backup on this?

1:33:11

There's no time. Santa Ana has fallen,
and the country's split in half.

1:33:15

The situation is deteriorating faster than
expected. El Salvador will fall in 48 hours.

1:33:20

24. Their air force
has got no ammo, no gas.

1:33:22

We either restore military aid now
or go to phase three.

1:33:25

The 82nd Airborne is on alert, and
the Marines are in position on the Ranger.

1:33:29

- What do you wanna do, sir?
- l won't get steamrollered into anything.

1:33:33

- Now, substantiate this Nicaraguan stuff.
- Sir, we can't. That would take days.

1:33:37

Sir, if we don't give
the order to evacuate soon,...

1:33:40

..l can't be responsible for the safety of
the embassy or the American community.

1:33:45

Tom, we all know you'll be leaving here
in a couple of days. That's not the issue.

1:33:50

The issue is do you want
to go down in the history books...

1:33:53

..as the man who lost El Salvador?

1:33:57

That's hardly the issue here.
We're talking about human lives here!

1:34:01

We're not playing some computer game.

1:34:04

Jesus, history books!

1:34:07

God!

1:34:40

The line is dead, sir.

1:34:43

Where the fuck are the Americans?
