	It is? What law? What about all the Americans who joined the Canadian
military and the RAF before the US was officially involved in WWII? What about
all the American mercenaries around the world today? 
	Going somewhere to fight does not necessarily mean renouncing the
US - you don't have to join their army (and besides, the contras are not really
connected to any foreign government), you just have to fight.

	So just make a donation directly to the contras - that shouldn't
be illegal. Besides, it would be rather inefficient to do it through the
IRS anyway.
