I think it is actually, just a dub version

Hang on guys: I think honestly that the end is the recording of a urinal in the recording studio. I'm not kidding. It's in a book on the Clash but the book is at home in the U.K. and I'm in Canada until April so cannot dig out the source but am positive that that's what ends the song!!!

@leeperryismerry Wikipedia says that this song is Police and Thieves backwards, and also dubbed.

God, I love the bleating in the background. Sandinista is so brilliantly odd.
Any guesses as to what's being said at 1:39 or thereabouts?

No idea. I've played it slow, fast and backwards, there's just much echo to here what's being said, if indeed someone is being said at all.

I bought this when it was a new release and it impressed my like none of their previous albums. Have I been hearing the ending corectly all these years: 2:24 "Could it really happen?" "I hope not." (sound of the button pushed, missile is launched).

Wow, you just might be right. Interesting.

This isn't the Police & Thieves tune is it?
(note it's just a question)

Don't think it is. There's some similarity in the bass line, but I don't think it's the same. I'm no expert at all though, could be wrong.
