The World tries to bully Honduras
Picture America during the Watergate crisis. Now imagine if other countries tried to tell us what to do. Imagine foreign countries withholding promised aid. Imagine countries threatening you with war. You would be thinking – hey – mind your own business and leave us alone!
This is exactly what is happening to Honduras.
Since the eviction of dictator-wanna-be Manuel Zelaya on June 28th, the ENTIRE world has objected, stammered and threatened the country of Honduras.
Why? because crooked leaders of the world are TERRIFIED to imagine being tossed out of office for disobeyed their country’s Constitution. If a country’s people are not willing to defend the basis of the RULE OF LAW in their nation, they are not worthy of the Freedoms that they are GIVING UP.
The Hondurans get it (even the new Foreign Minister who has yet to call Obama a “Little Black Man” )
Carlos Lopez, acting Honduran foreign minister and a member of the Micheletti delegation, told reporters yesterday that Arias’s proposals were “unacceptable.”
“The mediation has been unable to understand that the intention to reinstate Zelaya goes against Honduran law,” he said. This “constitutes an open interference in the internal affairs of Honduras.”
A short list of the latest Bullying tactics being employed against Honduras:
US suspends $20 Million in military aid
EU suspends $90 Million in aid
Obama describes ejection of Honduran tyrant to be “Terrible Precedent”
Zalaya himself has announced that his “people” will begin an insurrection if he does not get reinstated.
And now today from Bloomberg
Costa Rican President and “Arbitrator” Oscar Arias says that if Honduras does not “compromise” over Zalaya that a CIVIL WAR will erupt. His proposal?:
Arias proposed an amnesty for all parties, Zelaya’s return to power in a government that includes all political groups, presidential elections in October, an end to attempts to modify the constitution and the creation of an international commission to oversee implementation of the agreement.
Hang in there Hondurans – your November Elections are only a few months away – stand tall and on principle
