Former Sandinista Guerrilla Comander Dora Maria Tellez started a hunger strike this Wednesday, pissed off at the government lead by her former revolutionary comrade Daniel Ortega. Tellez founded a Sandinista Reform party that riled the rank and file of the mainstream Sandinista Party. Now back in power, Daniel Ortega wants to erase the refrom Sandinista party off the books before the municipal elections in a couple of months.

here are the pics.
