Right, like they made Twitter not conduct maintenance on the servers so that people in Iran could communicate to the outside world.

And another thing, this leftist Zelaya was going against the law in Honduras, does that mean that 0 favor breaking the law?

Obama and his minions are a stain on America and a stain on freedom.

He is the one who should be ousted. The leftists are making their move. They need to be stopped.

Honduras isn’t an islamic country. It’s an infidel country. Islamics don’t criticize other islamics. It’s something in the Quran. Islamics turn enmass upon non-Islamic countries.

People should be aware of this, too...

For whatever it’s worth. I mean, you can get information on this forum too, but that information is, in many cases, simply the opinions of the posters...

Are there many Muslims in Honduras?

Basically, I don’t think he cares WHICH Muslim @ss he has to kiss in Iran, as long as it’s a fellow Muslim.

Twenty years ago and there abouts all, and I mean all attempts for takeover such as was just prevented in Honduras would have been orchestrated by Cuba. I strongly suspect the same is true today. Chavez is just a blow-hard. Cuba is well experienced and has a successful track record.

WTF? Hey, no “meddling” acornguy.

You said — Honduras isn’t an islamic country. It’s an infidel country. Islamics don’t criticize other islamics. It’s something in the Quran. Islamics turn enmass upon non-Islamic countries.

Yeah, definitely Honduras is not a Muslim country (good thing, too...). And from what I can see, the guy the military arrested was trying to do something that was outside their laws and was not allowed.

But, with Iran, I figure you can let the Muslims knock off other Muslims with no great loss to the world....

[taxtruth]

I hope o gets put in jail for fraud just like his buddy he’s trying to protect.

I have friends in Honduras, and what the poster said matches exactly what they’ve communicated, so that’s why I used his report. He spells out the events as they’ve happened, and is a lot more accurate about the real situation than what’s coming out on the MSM.

[Servant of the Cross]

basically an impeachment

aha, that's why zer0's opposed to it.

[Star Traveler]

Oh yeah, I think I can see that this is the situation, too... but I was just posting that to make it clear what it was, that’s all.

But, I would agree with it, actually...

Honduras cocaine wholesale traffic: "According to an annual report of the “Ministerio Público”, 55 kilos were seized in 2005, 2,714 in 2006, 1,704 in 2007, 6,764 in 2008 and in 2009 the tally is already at 6,655 kilos. The increase in seizures is not a result of higher efficiency by the anti-drug personnel but, in some cases, of the misfortune of the pilots who have crashed in various areas of the country. Some national leaders fear that at this pace, Honduras will soon become a “narcostate.”

That's about a 7-fold increase in the last 3 years.

“...the coup was an attempt to circumvent a plebiscite aimed at enhancing the right to free elections.”

Sounds like ACORN’s latin branch is busy.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Like this?

[WorkerbeeCitizen]

Nope, not a Chavez anything.

The ousted prez tried to step on their constitution and the senate and the supreme court backed his dismissal.

The supreme court also backed the military arrest of the prez - all done in accordance to the Honduran constitution.

[cripplecreek]

Zelaya was going against the law in Honduras, does that mean that 0 favor breaking the law?

That's what it sounds like to me. Kind of like here, we can't change the constitution easily or by popular referendum. In a sense its what Mel Martinez said was OK when he said that once we had voted, our constitution didn't matter.

[BunnySlippers]

Bump

[Cvengr]

It was ordered by the Honduras Supreme Court and Congress (basically an impeachment).

Considering the lack of a valid birth certificate, if such occurred in the US, which foreign national airport terminal would Zero find himself?
