Keeping an eye on Honduras from overseas

Senior administrator officials tell Fox President Obama received up-to-the minute briefings on ousted Honduran President Manuel Zelaya's attempt to land Sunday in the capital of Tegucigalpa.

Officials had no direct comment late Sunday on the tense standoff, in which military troops loyal to new Honduran President Roberto Micheletti cut off access to airport runways and threatened to arrest Zelaya if he landed.

Zelaya, flying in a plane supplied by Venezuela, abandoned efforts to land, flying instead to neighboring El Salvador. The White House sent word to Zelaya on Saturday that it would be a "mistake" for him to return to Honduras before the political stalemate had been resolved.

Protests by pro-Zelaya sympathizers converged at the Tegucigalpa Airport. Riot police met them. Clashes ensued, resulting in numerous injuries and possibly one death.

National Security Adviser Jim Jones was to continue briefing Obama on his flight from Washington here.

So, our President, sitting in Moscow ("I can see Russia from my suite!), was coaching Chaves puppet Zelaya while his plane was in the air, heading to Honduras?

Am I reading this correctly? No wonder the first impression I had, of three separate planes leaving Washington, DC for Honduras and El Salvador, was Hillary loosing the flying monkeys.

Article linked below has a lot of additional detail. That Zelaya is a real drama queen.

Honduras Is Rattled as Leader Tries Return

Yeah, he sent word alright. He opened his mouth and said the word and Zaleya opened his ears and received the words from Obama’s mouth.

This media is infuriatating!

Link to article that says “At least three other planes left the Washington area separately, carrying Latin American presidents, the secretary-general of the Organization of American States and journalists. They were trailing Zelaya to see what happens in the skies over Honduras before deciding where to land.”

Please don’t let this go unnoticed in his attempt at acting like he is just ‘keeping an eye on the situation’. He is ACTIVELY HELPING A CRIMINAL WOULD BE DICTATOR from being legally deposed.

Can someone forward to Rush?

Oh yeah, for those who might be confused on this, this article is the best explanation out there. Forward to all your friends, most especially the koolaid drinkers.

The least we can do is contact our servants in Washington and call their attention to Obama’s wrong headed policy.

I believe Rush actually spoke to this on Friday. IIRC, he is on vacation.

[autumnraine]

It’s worse, Zaleya and “several Latin American Presidents” were IN WASHINGTON DC this weekend.

Thanks for the great link - snip

The Supreme Court and the attorney general ordered Zelaya’s arrest for disobeying several court orders compelling him to obey the Constitution. He was detained and taken to Costa Rica. Why? Congress needed time to convene and remove him from office. With him inside the country that would have been impossible. This decision was taken by the 123 (of the 128) members of Congress present that day. Don’t believe the coup myth. The Honduran military acted entirely within the bounds of the Constitution. The military gained nothing but the respect of the nation by its actions.”

Two nations on record supporting the Honduran government actions - Israel and Taiwan.

Unfortunately our “servants” appear to be afraid of upsetting their globalist masters.

[RU88]

All we need to know about the situation in Honduras is that Obama stands shoulder to shoulder with Castro, Chavez, Morales, and Ortega.

How's that for hope and change!?

[justa-hairyape]

The military gained nothing but the respect of the nation by its actions.

You certainly do not want to fight a country that has just come to terms with its military. No way. No how. That military now has carte blanc.

It may appear so. But, these people are always looking toward the next election and they need to know what WE care about.

Instead of “meddling” with other countries affair, how about sweep the floor of the United States of America’s from the present dirt occupying the White House alias PINO???

I think that was a misstatement by the interim president. So far it has not been supported by any public confirmation.
