Honduras we are with you against the communist mafia! At the end democracy will prevail! God bless you!

Reuters: Nicaraguan army spokesman says Honduran report of troop movement near Honduran border is “totally false.”

I am glad to the Honduras People for standing up and protecting the Goverment. Keep Zelaya out of the coountry.

You people are delusional. You must be from the U.S.A. or one of its satellite states.
Miami is the other way, fellas.

The US president is an idiot to try to undermine the DEMOCRATIC process in Honduras. It just shows how ignorant he is about our own constitution.
It’s crazy that we have troops in Iraq trying to impose a democratic government and we are telling an already democratic government that their own due process is invalid. What the F_____???

Nicaraguan troops should not interfer in Honduras Political Affairs and respect the countries sovereignty.
Zelaya supporters should wake up and see that their President’s continued rule was eventually going to turn into a dictator that will strip all the constituents rights. Zelaya was corrupt, he had a plan in mind for many years to come. He was planning to be Presdient of Honduras for a very longtime.
God Bless the strong & powerful Honduran Army from removing him from power.
“Democracy” is the future of Honduras.

God bless Nicaragua for standing up for Honduran sovereignity in the face of CIA-inspired control via military dictatorships! Go Nicaragua, the Honduran people will welcome you, aside from the ever-traitorious elites who are ever happy to sell out their fat bank accounts!

God bless Micheletti! Zelaya=Communist hypocrite.

Just the Mel.zelaya followers will welcome the Nicaragua militia.Those traitors to their own land like the corrupt Mel.The honest hard working honduran just need peace and tranquility.The intervention of the nicaragua military will be an insult to the majority of hondurans.

The biggest joke of this entire fiasco is that Nicaragua has the will, wherewithal and resources to not only invade Honduras, but to help return Honduras to democratic sovereignty.
Come on, amigos: with what money would Nicaragua conduct such an operation? And what leadership? That aging nutter, Daniel Ortega? Por favor . . .
And remember, Honduras is flat broke – that’s why nobody is there already. There’s nothing but platano and yucca for an invading army to steal – sin oro, sin diamantes, sin gasolina. Nada. When the foreign aid stops flowing (as of today), it’s just a mater of time till the military flips – of that we may be sure.
And what’s more, an invasion forgets the number one rule per all Latino military forces: they never fight actual wars, rather they only intimidate, control, terrorize and “defend” their own people.
Honduras is on their own with this one. They’re on a road to utter starvation, so don’t expect the current situation to last too long.

Nicaragua knows best not to interfer in Honduras Political Affairs. The Interm Government has agreed to hold early Presidential Elections which will be the best decision for the Hondurian people.
16 Wayne // Jul 5, 2009 at 6:12 pm
My prayers are with Honduras. This was not a coup! I am so sorry that “reporters” do not report but editoralize. President Micheletti please allow Zelaya to return, then arrest Zelaya on charges of treason. Turn away the other interlopers with him. May GOD continue to bless Honduras and it’s wonderful people!
17 Jim // Jul 5, 2009 at 6:29 pm
There are signs of a shift in media support for the Government.
But International news coverage is still biased.
Positive articles came out this weekend from BBC, Wall Street Journal and Investor Business Daily. Senator Demint has been a vocal supporter in the U.S. Hopefully he can rally more Congressional support. John Kerry came out last week with support but haven’t heard too much from him. 300 talk show hosts around the U.S. are providing positive coverage every day. Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity have made it a major topic on their TV/radio shows every day last week
Here is correct YouTube Beat It Zelaya

Everybody forgets Raul Mata and what the US did on Honduran soil and the US Airplane involved. (Late 1980’s) Honduras did no less!

Zelaya: Satay out of Honduras

For those that support Zelaya, here’s an article from a rather leftist American magazine that may have predicted Honduras’ future:

Capitalism allows you to earn what you are willing to work for. I hope Hondurans will always be allowed to achieve all they are capable of.
21 asfas // Jul 5, 2009 at 9:00 pm
The troops are not sent by Nicaragua’s president and they are not going to attack Honduras, at all.

Sr. INSULZA: …. ¿¿Sería usted tan amable de explicarnos a los ciudadanos del mundo qué medidas está preparando la OEA para acabar con los 50 AÑOS de Dictadura comunista en Cuba??? “”"”"”"”"”¡¡ 50 AÑOS sin Democracia !!”"”"”"”"”"”. ……………………………..««««¡¡ Medio SIGLO sin libertades !!»»»»…………………………….. ¿¿Le podría explicar esto a los HONDUREÑOS, por favor
23 Jean De La Croix // Jul 5, 2009 at 10:00 pm
Hey my friends Honduran soldiers: abran bien
los ojos, que ustedes no estan protegiendo a quienes lo merecen, que son sus hermanos los
mas pobres de Honduras, los descendientes de Los Mayas. Ustedes estan protegiendo a los mas
ricos de Honduras, que quieren tener a los pobres de esclavos como siempre lo han hecho.
Esos ricos Blancos, nunca les van a agradecer que ustedes los cuiden, al contrario cuando ellos
obtengan lo que quieren, solo les van a dar una
patada en el trasero. Demustrenle a sus hermanos y hermanas pobres, y a el mundo entero que ustedes no son tan estupidos como para dejarse lavar el cerebro por los ricos y alzar armas encontra de su propia sangre, permitan que Zelaya regrese ya, para que todo nuestro pueblo Hondureno vuelva a tener la
esperanza que estaba viendo con el, quien si es
un hombre del pueblo. – He dicho.

El ejército hondureño tiene todo bajo control. Ellos están unidos, valientes y han demostrado al mundo entero que son una fuerza poderosa que quiere ayudar a establecer la democracia en Honduras.
25 Sra Borjas // Jul 6, 2009 at 5:09 am
Not to worry the Honduran Millitary will defeat the Nicaraguan Millitary, just dont want to hear them cry for their losses due to their ignorance of unnessasary involvment Viva Honduras!!! Si Se Puede tambien Obama!!!!!!!
26 La Nica // Jul 6, 2009 at 8:29 am
Felicito al ejercito hondureño por su valentia al defender su pais del plan de dictadura planeado por no solamente Zelaya, sino que tambien por Chavez, Ortega y otros lideres izquierdistas. Zelaya es solamente otro titere mas de los cominustas latinoamericanos. Soy Nicaraguense y puedo decirles que vivi y sufri el derramamiento de sangre y muerte clamado por la bandera rojo y negro quien siempre insto a la violencia y muerte en mi pais. Cada vez que veo lideres junto a sus ignorantes seguidores vestidos de rojo me recuerda las miles de muertos en Nicaragua gracias al partido FSLN quien esta tratando de influenciar al pais de Honduras a pasar por la misma miseria y muerte que mi pais sufrio. Adelante Honduras, que Dios bendiga sus fuerzas armadas y los ayude a defender la libertad de su pais. No todos los nicaraguenses apoyamos al izquierdista Ortega y sus compinches.
27 Anthony Arriola // Jul 6, 2009 at 8:40 am
Why would Nicaragua troops be heading toward the borders?
I know my people are worried and concern about the state of our nation, so am I, this problem must be solved not because it is deplomatically expedience but because it is morally compelling.
Late Kennedy was right when he said that ” man kind must put end to war or a war will put end to man kind.”
Now the time is mutual, if you continue to wait it can work on your behalf but it can also work against you, the time to do right is now and the time to do right is always right so we will stand together and fight for what is right….
God continue to bless Honduras of Centro America…

It is important in this moment not to expresss nasy words. Honduras neeed paz not violence
The evil will be remuve you like or not
29 Richard of USA // Jul 6, 2009 at 10:22 am
Honduras maybe better off without Zelaya and his far/ far left friends Chavez and Ortega. The people of Honduras’s current Administration are strieving to keep their country a Democracy and not a dictatorship.
30 MIke P // Jul 6, 2009 at 11:41 am
Two wrongs don’t make one right… Honduras militia is acting wrong…. they wanted Zelaya off power they should had done it the democratic way since they claim to be protecting it, it would had show their case by doing it the right way… but they are as good as the guy the kicked out, so what ’s the difference between these two parties…. NONE…
31 eddie // Jul 6, 2009 at 12:03 pm
just ley zelaya finish his term anyways at least he asked the people before making la quarta urna he only wanted the people to answer so leave him alone i hate zelaya and michelletti but wat they did to him is wrong zelaya should had been trial not kicked out by the military
32 Yolanda // Jul 6, 2009 at 2:26 pm
we don’t need that ignorant as a president, we don’t need another Chavez, we are sending a message to the Venezuelan and Nicaraguan people, YES WE CAN.
33 unknown // Jul 6, 2009 at 4:33 pm
The Honduras Citizens should thank their beloved Army for removing this man from power.
34 Irma // Jul 6, 2009 at 4:35 pm

NO A LOS MISQUINOS GOLPISTAS QUE SE QUIEREN SEGIR APROVECHANDO DE LOS POBLRES.
”
-Consultar a la ciudadanía no puede ser nunca un acto ilegal: cuando los integrantes de la alianza política-económica y mediática asuman el significado de esta frase, será un gran indicador de avance en cultura política democrática.
-Reconocer y respetar la coexistencia de personas, partidos y países que son o piensan diferentes, será un gran indicador de que las Fuerzas Armadas hondureñas superaron su condición primitiva y atrasada.
-Emitir una opinión no implica obligatoriamente estar a favor o en contra, cuando la sociedad hondureña asuma este criterio, será un gran indicador de su capacidad para debatir y proponer.
No hay excusa alguna para este golpe. Una crisis constitucional se desató cuando el presidente Zelaya le ordenó al ejército que distribuyera los materiales para un referendo no vinculante que se llevaría a cabo el domingo pasado. El referendo le pedía a los ciudadanos que votaran sobre si incluir una propuesta para una asamblea constituyente, para redactar una nueva constitución, en las elecciones de noviembre.
Esto es particularmente cierto en este caso, en el que el referendo que se proponía era un plebiscito no vinculante y meramente de carácter consultivo. No habría cambiado cualquier ley, ni habría afectado la estructura de poder; era simplemente una encuesta al electorado.
Por consiguiente, el ejército no puede afirmar que actuó para prevenir un daño irreparable. Éste es un golpe militar llevado a cabo con propósitos políticos. “
36 CATRACHO // Jul 6, 2009 at 6:18 pm
La vieja y antiquada constitucion de honduras nesecita redactacio pues es mas de 200 anos que fue escrita en un tiempo donde no existia ni los radios mucho menos computadoras y cellulares.
Los hondurenos de este tiempo necesitan nuevas protectiones que solo una revisada y redactada constitucion puede probeher.
Si el pueblo en majoria pide cambio honduras tiene que cambiar. No a los politicos duenos de radio emisoras periodicos y canales de television. No a los policos que violan los derechos de libertad de prensa. No a los golpistas opresores los ricos que no quieren que los pobres progressen. QUE VUELVA ZELAYA EL PUEBLO LO PIDE.

I am from honduras i vote for Obama but now i am disappointed he is not traying to help us.
41 Francisco // Jul 7, 2009 at 10:22 pm
I think Obama should pay very close attention and try to get a better understanding of the problem in honduras before removing any military protection. This problem is too close to home, meaning the USA to be taking so lightly.
42 don // Jul 13, 2009 at 5:45 pm
My wife has family in Honduras, so we are watching this very close. I wonder if the Latino People are watching how Obama has turned his back on them.
43 Bill // Jul 13, 2009 at 9:22 pm
If the removal of the president by the military happened in Iran or Venezuela the world would be applauding. We need to know more, like this is the third time Honduras has done this in one lifetime.
44 Orlando Calderin // Jul 14, 2009 at 8:29 am
I agree honduran Army did the right move. It was criticable, but the best way to get rid of a
violator to the Honduran constitution. To let The man to continue to in charge it had been worse.
45 Orlando Calderin // Jul 14, 2009 at 8:31 am
That is the way I think. I can not restrict my opinion on the matter.
