“He instantly lost his citizenship for his actions.”

Huston, we have a problem. While I am delighted the cringing, boot licking MSM have finally acknowledged his removal from office was legit, the rest of the story needs to be told.

The new meme is Zelaya’s booting from the country ‘wrong’ and not due to his loss of citizenship upon the decision handed down from the Supreme Court.

While the Zelaya crowd have suffered a tactical defeat on one of their main points, the ‘wrongful removal from country’ could be very damaging if successful.

Or at least that’s how it looks to me.

Do readers see the Zelaya crowd being forced back down from this tactic?

One problem with the reporting that I haven't seen any definitive answer to is when they say that the "military decided to put him on a plane to Costa Rica." They were ordered by the SC to remove him from the Presidential residence but it isn't clear who actually made the decision to toss him out of the country.

It has been claimed, as in this report, that he had to be formally stripped of citizenship in order to deport him. I haven't seen in their constitution or other legal statutes that they have to do that. It makes sense that they would have to but their legal system is different and no one has made a factual case that it is required.

Their constitution clearly states that citizenship is lost for the actions Zelaya repeatedly engaged in.
