Yet another supporter of "Presidents for Life" emerges

[Carling]

It’s telling that the Honduran and Iranian people are leading the charge toward freedom. Yet we sit here on FR while our liberties are diminished by each day’s new edict.

Pushing around the poorest nation in central america - nice /s

The World Bank has "paused" all program lending to Honduras following a military coup in the impoverished country, World Bank President Robert Zoellick said on Tuesday.

You know that mythical one-world government that we're always afraid of, but think will never really happen? Well, it's actually already here, folks. As each nation has been seduced into the "global economy", those who regulate the money for that global economy then have the power to affect a nation's internal politics by threatening the flow of that money. Obviously, the attitude for one-world government is already there - everybody thinks they are entitled to coerce Honduras into acting a certain way, rather than considering it an internal matter. Add a method for enforcing that sense of entitlement et voila - that nation becomes a vassal of the one-world empire.

Now it starts. You are starting to see an why we had a bad name in central and south America an it was the (American) leftist (backed by large corporations) that had central America chock full of dictators. History repeating itself. We are in the process of installing a Dictator in Honduras, and look who is doing it. I hope the Hondurans are strong enough the press forward with their freedom.

The OAS has a “democratic charter”? Well, Honduras has a constitution, which their dear communist leader was attempting to violate when the courts, congress, and the army all prevented him.

Obama is obviously pulling all the strings—the UN, the World Bankd, the OAS, the Toe-kissing Press.

It’s important to him partly because the expelled Presidente was a Communist, and partly because Obama, too, wants to be President for Life in due course, so removing this guy is a bad precedent for him.

Honduras certainly seems to have messed up someone’s back room plans. I can’t imagine this coordinated effort against someone that was actually a threat, like North Korea.

The World Bank has "paused" all program lending to Honduras following a military coup in the impoverished country, World Bank President Robert Zoellick said on Tuesday.

The dismissal of el presidente has disrupted the Honduran drug trade, putting the World Bank's investments and cash flow at risk. Time to regroup.

I was telling a friend today, if it comes to blows down there, I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the soldiers have a distinctly Texan accent.

This is incredible. Obama’s behind this and he’s pulling out all the stops and calling in all his supporters to punish a tiny country for adhering to its constitution and rejecting a would-be leftist dictator manipulated by Obama’s dearest buddy, Hugo Chavez.

No dissent will be tolerated. He wants to crush Honduras.

[Fingolfin]

Its ironic that those World Bank protesters we always see at their meetings are always left-wingers yet here we have the World Bank defending the leftist ex-President.

Its also strange that we have these massive supranational banks feeding poor countries a constant stream of loans.

How dare those Hondurans interrupt the flow of the blow.
The crack shortage will cause the peeps to get antsy.

The New World Order is no longer a conspiracy theory. Here it is at work.

[ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas]

The World bank is the muscle for Chavez/Castro/Obama now.

When has the World Bank expressed concern about the seeking of tyranny in Venezuela, Bolivia, Nicaragua—and Honduras prior to its citizens acting peremptorily to prevent, yes, tyranny?

[hedgetrimmer]

Here’s your buddy Zoellick. “free trader” promotes dictator. Not news, happens all the time.

[TigersEye]

That tells you where the World Bank is. Backers of the world wide march of Marxism. Another one to put up against the wall.

[PGalt]

Thanks very much for posting. Great thread. Thanks to every poster.

What, “pauses” until they recognize their “error” and put the law-breaking would-be dictator back in charge?
