I am aware of David Romero’s statements, but Zelaya was quoted as saying that Israel was attacking him with gas and lethal rays just after he arrived at the embassy.

Fair point. I personally don't buy the Israeli agents claim, and am skeptical about the radio waves bit. But as an electrical engineer, I can tell you that emissions that are sufficiently strong to create physical discomfort or physiological damage are easily detectable and can be documented.

Mind-control rays? If used, they sure failed big time, didn't they?

Now let's get to something real. Some outsiders reported that during the first days of the embassy siege, loudspeakers were used to harass the people in the embassy. If that is true, surely someone made recordings of the noise. If not, no recordings. Simple as that.

Zelaya claimed during the first week that the embassy had been gassed and was ridiculed for saying so. Today I found a CNN report dated September 25th with details:

Zelaya and his aides said at a news conference that a local public health specialist they identified as Dr. Mauricio Castellano took air samples near the embassy after the attack and determined that the gas contained HCN, an abbreviation for hydrogen cyanide. HCN can cause dryness and burning of the throat, shortness of breath, convulsion, coma and cardiovascular collapse.

Note that the specialist is identified by name, and it is claimed that samples exist. It would be devastating to the Micheletti regime if the specialist and samples are credible.

I recall reading that some interim government official (might have been Micheletti) said later that a street-cleaning crew had been using chemicals at the time and the usage was interpreted as a gas attack. This statement, along with the CNN excerpt, tends to give some credibility to Zelaya's claim.
