First most of the Honduras people are happy that Zelaya is not in power. He and his friend Hugo Chavez from Venezuela want to become dictators and the people in Honduras would not accept that kind of govermnet. Spain, France, Brazil and now USA are taking the aid/ help for Honduras. These goverments are not with the people, they don't live there, and most important - what do these countries do for Honduras? If Honduras took that policy is not because they want war with the world, is because they don't want to become a 'second Venezuela'. If all these countries want to help, then they should take a good and long look to what really Zelaya wants to do. How would they like to have their constitution change by someone that is only looking to steal money, or traffic with drugs???
Why they don't ask Zelaya were is all the money that is supposed to help the country? the hospitals, were is the money for medicines?
Before passing judgement, let them investigate

A military coup is not the way to deal with a proposal by an elected president to have a referendum. Especially not by a military whose behaviour has been compromised by training at the School of Americas and which haboured death squads in the 1970s.Why would you expect other countries should respect what has been done. Guns are not an answer to a disliked policy or even a movement towards the left. This coup never have a happy ending.

I also condemmed the Military Coup in Honduras, this is just marking a precedent again for the military to take over the country limiting the constitutional rights of the honduran people. NO TO THE MILITARY INTERVENTION AND VIOLATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS IN CENTRAL AMERICA, A GHOST OF THE DARK PAST.
