The freedom of nationalists Lolita Lebrón, Rafael Cancel Miranda, Oscar Collazo and Irving Flores, released from prison in 1979, did not respond to an exclusively humanitarian gesture by a president whose administration promoted respect for human rights. Their release came about more as a consequence of the growing ¿intermestic¿ (international and domestic) crisis resulting from the challenge the four posed to the United States legal system. Through documentation and analysis of the National Security Council (NSC) declassified Carter Administration documents, in this paper the author proposes to reveal the series related of events and internal NSC debates that finally led to the release of the Nationalists, thus permitting the United States to save face internationally and domestically in view of the unresolved colonial dispute affecting the people of Puerto Rico. |
