He met for two hours with Jorge Rivera, president of the Supreme Court that authorized the military to seize Zelaya on Sunday and fly him into exile.

The very first paragraph of the OAS charter.

CONSIDERING that the Charter of the Organization of American States recognizes that representative democracy is indispensable for the stability, peace, and development of the region, and that one of the purposes of the OAS is to promote and consolidate representative democracy, with due respect for the principle of nonintervention;

Check out their charter. Looks to me like one world government is an admitted goal.

Common sense tells me that Zelaya must have been pretty bad news for the entire government to be willing to tell the US and the UN to go stick it.

Thanks cripplecreek for the information but I don't need to read their socialist proclamation. I've been paying enough attention to them over the years to know where they want to go. Those in the U.S. do not see themselves as Americans since they don't believe in the concept of national sovereignty.

Neighboring countries have imposed trade blockades, major lenders have cut aid, the Obama administration has halted joint military operations and all European Union ambassadors have abandoned the Honduran capital.

The forces of darkness have aligned against Honduras.
