What is the Fate of Honduras?
Today the UN passed a resolution that “condemned what it called a coup d’etat and demanded ‘the immediate and unconditional restoration of the legitimate and constitutional government’ of Zelaya.” With countries such as France, Ecuador, Chile, Spain, Argentina, and the United States condemning the new government and with the EU threatening to pull out their ambassadors in protest, this puts mounting pressure on Honduras. Zelaya has vowed to come back to the country and Honduras has vowed to arrest him as soon as he does, with Zelaya facing up to 20 years in prison.
So what happens now? Can Honduras stand the world pressure and long enough for another president to be elected? Will the world win and Zelaya be put back in power? Some believe that it will be a miracle if Honduras can withstand this mounting pressure. I hope that the world will come to accept Honduras’ actions in ousting Zelaya because it was truly the best thing to happen to Honduras.
What do you think?

The right wingers are afraid of the people that were easily controlled before and now are awake of all injustices committed by past administrations puppets of US, so they brought back all the repressors from the scool of the americas to stop the people who now want to take their lives in their own hands, If Zelaya broke the law why they didn't put him on trial, why they kidnnaped him in the middle of the night and took him to other country?
you are right he do not have the support of any of these powers, his only supporter is the people
Por fin hay alguien en este sitio que escribe con razonamientos democraticos cual es el miedo al referendo si la poblacion de Honduras cree que asi como estan estan bien el referendo pierde y no habra nueva constitucion, yo no apoyo a Chavez pero recuerden que en Venezuela hubo tres consultas y en la penultima Chavez perdio y no paso nada; Cual es el miedo al pueblo, sera que el pueblo les puede cobrar los despilfarros pasados!!!!!!
Mark my words, even if president Zelaya do not come back on Nov 09 the people of Honduras will vote for another leftist candidate, the honduran politicians brought this to themselves; Honduras was always a loyal friend of USA, but what they have in return represion and poverty (third most poor country in the western hemisphere).
“El pueblo perdona pero no olvida”.
We appreciate Capt. Levister for your honest love for our country, you are a true Catracho of heart and you seem to understand what has been going on. I was born in a free country and intend to die in a free one. Countries around the world are shutting their doors to ask for help, but we rather live isolated of the world than with zelaya in power again, that would literally be death sentence to Democracy.
Marco from NYC. Que mal estas,pidele a DIOS que te ilumini para que puedas entender la verdad.Todo lo que hablas no tiene sentido.Estas igualito que ese puppet de Chavez,el loco de MEL ZELAYA.que en su loca imaginacion el pueblo lo apoya cuando la realidad es otra el 96% del pueblo NO LO APOYA. los Hondurenos en el estranjeron la mayoria no lo apoyan. no has vistos las manifestaciones por la paz en honduras apoyando el gobierno de Michelleti. y vistes las de favor a Mel y esto que vinieron de todo el pais unos cuatro gatos ruidosos,violentos,cobardes con la cara tapada,ordinarios igualmente que su lider.Provocando el ejercito.

Honduras appreciate the U S A. but by no means will sacrifice its liberty because the U S says so. I'll like to ask a few questions. What would have happen, when president Nixon was impeached, if he had refuse to leave office? Why is the U S afraid of Chavez? If the U S don't want to help us fine, but just leave us alone.

El Catracho here from inside the Brazilian embassy and there's a party going on. Tons of coke and booze and hookers. Namely Rodas and Rixy. But wait, there are both preganant. Wow, the presidential Pinga has done it again presumably in between eight-balls. Oh my but here comes the Senora. She pissed off. Looks like a fight. And there she goes off th hospital. Better too, because we've got drugs to do and booze to wash it down. Viva Mel. He's a Honduran hereo.
