Coup inciting revolution in Honduras?

[amorofyears]

¡Los dueños de la granja ricos deben pagar más a los obreros! Venda los intereses establecidos, si son las personas muy capaces.

[amorofyears]

The U.S. people and government should know equality of opportunity is not established in most of Latin American countries, as Honduran agriculture workers have no opportunities to be paid a fair wage for their hard works, but a small minority of farm owners are very rich. Are the farm owners really capable people? I don't think so. If it were true, they could sell out their established interests because they would acquire them again under competitive free market.

[sojoooman]

These stupid campesinos and the poor need to get of their asses and seek a way to imporove themselves instead of waiting for the governemtn to give them hand outs. By the way it's because of these so called oligarchs that thousands of people are employed. This is a complete stupid lefty point of view.  Robert Micheletti did an excellent job and is considered a heroe by about 80% of the population. Your buddy Hugo didn'twin this time.

[Patriot4300212016]

you sound like a foreigner. you leeches need to gt the fuck out of our country and go back to your middle eastern shithole, no one in the world likes your race. michelleti is a fucking jew, and all the other fags with him look like towelheads. i think the poor hondurans need to learn how to shoot a gun and have some fucking balls.

[bambirette1]

i applaud the resistence for not allowing zelaya to implement his utmost communistic ideals... id be frightenend too if our president considered the advice of people like chavez and castro... and to the media i refuse to listen to your politicaly controled reported information...

[anarchopiecrust]

communist ideals? if you call providing clean water and health care to all the people in the country and not just the top strata of society, then so be it, let communism prevail if it provides the basic necessities for the people! you, my friend, are listening to the neoliberal crap they feed you telling you that providing services is communist; look at what happened in Argentina under the first Peron regime, people who have NEVER gotten the opportunity for education had a chance.

[VoteLib3rty]

@anarchopiecrust : People need to realize that government is just a front for elitist power. Communism is not the answer. Limited government and freedom is the answer.

[raferat]

The US congress after reviewing our constitution, has come to the conclusion that this was NO COUP, the person that made this video needs to get better information. I believe that the international comunity are hipocrites, they turn their heads with everything that is happening in venezuela and condem the defense of our constitution here in honduras my country!!!! god bless our armed forces.

[MrOncethere]

Please explain to this simple mind, what opposition is left in Venezuela. Chavez, instructed by Fidel Castro has arrested or shut down any one who dares oppose him. Since you like Googling so much, why don't you look at it up. I have relatives that live in Venezuela and they keep me informed of what is happening there. They tell me that they keep their mouths shut for fear of what will happen to them. My uncle who purchased a small farm back in the 60's has had it confiscated by Chavez.

[djtj1987]

dont be ignorant you golpista! a little history lesson ok.... remember la Huelga de las bananeras... the people that were on strike were the peopl of honduras, as is the resistance right now... dont be ignorant! la huelga de las bananeras brought a lot of good things in our country, sindicatos were approved, etc, etc. rights that we have right now, the same thing is happening right now, the resistance is fighting for RIGHTS! the de facto government has taken our rights, of speech, reunion...

[MrOncethere]

It is a very small minority of the Honduran population that is out protesting against the current government. If you consider the size of the Honduran military, if the entire country wanted Zelaya back, the military would never be able to stop them. These poor mental midgets are part of a communist movement that is being supported with Chavez' petro-dollars. Just like Chavez is supporting the FARC in Colombia in an effort to destabilize that country. Communism and Rights= oil+water!

[MrOncethere]

All you Communist supporters, don't worry, you have the biggest weapon available in bring back the Zelaya government. Its called the Obama administration. There is very little difference between Obama, Clinton, Chavez, and Zelaya. Its amazing how some protest that Michelletti has shut down two radio stations who are being pushed by the international communist to cause unrest in Honduras. Yet no one says a word about what Chavez has done in Venezuela. You have to wonder, don't you.

[NicosNicosNicosNicos]

I'd turn that one around: It's disgusting the way the right claims that Chavez's perfectly legitimate non-renewal of a TV station's state-issued license, (following the station's active role in a coup) is somehow censorship, whereas Micheletti brutally closes down the only pro-Zelaya media (in Venezuela the opposition media is some 90% of the media), destroying equipment and torturing at least one journalist, Delmer Mendreño. To a sane person there is no comparison! :)

[NicosNicosNicosNicos]

Oh and the old lie about international communists has changed! Did no one tell you? Even your friend Micheletti knows that. That's why he didn't accuse them of being communists, he said "terrorists" (when you don't agree with someone's politics today the keyword is not "communist" anymore, it's "terrorist"!) (because the Soviet Empire collapsed -you can check that last one easily on google).

[MrOncethere]

Call it what you will...they are both the same. One kills you immediately and the other one slowly. They both take from man what he holds most dearly and that is FREEDOM!

[MrOncethere]

Chavez has shut down all opposition including throwing in prison anyone who would have the nerve to run against him or challenge his rule. I know that there is no use in arguing with communist sympathizers. The USSR might have collapsed but, the ideology lives on in the minds of mental midgets like Chavez and Castro. Have you ever wondered why the Soviets collapsed? The system is based on a lie. Google? How about history and what its done to people of the nations who have had to live in it.

[NicosNicosNicosNicos]

"Chavez has shut down all opposition".

I mean: this is not the result of a careful reading of the facts, it is just you repeating a tired stereotype where you confuse Stalin with Obama with Chavez and God knows what else.

[MrOncethere]

Nicos, by the way, may I ask you where you get your facts from? Its it the NY Times or some other American paper? Sure sounds like it.

[NicosNicosNicosNicos]

Since you ask, I try to read some of the American (Latin American to be precise) press when looking for Latin American news. I have very ocasionally read the odd article in a US paper, generally when seeking a specific article I've heard about. I am living in the UK and it is hard to imagine the US press is any worse than the UK one on Latin American matters. As to facts, I like to cast a wide net: books, personal contacts, intelligent analysis, etc.

[MrOncethere]

The highest court in Honduras told Zelaya that what he was doing was illegal but, he went ahead with it as he was told to do by Chavez. He wanted to be president for life just like Chavez. By the way, all of you who are posting trash and blaming the U.S., get out from behind your computers and go to Honduras and help your communist brothers and sisters. Chavez has plenty of money to help you protest..

[MrOncethere]

You have to hand it to the international communist for they never give up with their propaganda. Zelaya, backed by another communist, Chavez, attempted to become president for life. Zelaya had the ballots printed in Venezuela by Chavez in an attempt to subvert the Honduran Constitution of only holding office for one term. Unfortunately, here in the U.S. we have a president who is really not much different than Chavez. May God safe Honduras from the communist!

[NicosNicosNicosNicos]

It must be strange for you living in such a closed world, so far away from reality.

[MrOncethere]

Unfortunately, you are once again being duped by the communist of this world. Enjoy your freedom while you can in writing these comments...for they will be gone should Zelaya and Chavez prevail.

[1140Cecile]

Zelaya wasn't trying to "subvert" the Constitution but was rather trying to hold a "referendum" on amending the Constitution so that a President could serve two terms, the same as the US. The referendum wasn't going to be binding and, if passed by the people, would have gone to the General Assembly for consideration as to whether or not they should adopt the results of the referendum and amend their Constitution. Sounds like democracy to me.

[MrOncethere]

That would be all fair and good if, Chavez didn't have a hand in it. The ballots were printed up in Venezuela and the winner was declared before the elections. I have even read articles from Zelaya's own party members who told him not to do this, that it would only destroy and divide Honduras but, yet on the advisement of Chavez, he went ahead anyway. Chavez is the new Castro who is constantly meddeling in the affairs of other Latin American countries. Chavez wants Honduras

[NicosNicosNicosNicos]

Believe it or not, no Latin American leader needs Hugo Chavez to explain to them what to do. They all have independent minds, strategies and so on. They are not babies! :) 1) I would check the slants and sources of where you read that (asking were these "predeclared winners" even a part of the invented charges against Zelaya?) 2) Zelaya's "own party" are traditionally rightwing: ie in favour of the rich minority and opposed to the interests of the poor majority.

[MrOncethere]

"You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves."

[assaih]

This video is full of nonsense. Not worth watching. These people who calls themselves socialist says they are for the poor. Yeah right, these people are crooked and corrupt who wants to CONTROL the poor. Disgusting people who uses the poor to meet their own selfish agendas. I'm very dissappointed with Oscar Estrada a guy who made a film about drugs and people moving ilegally to the US.

[thehitman000]

people need to wake up and stand together! sovereignty and equality for all nations is a moral law.

[benevideo]

Quantas pessoas apóiam Zelaya? Quantas apóiam o atual governo? Por que não vemos nas ruas o povo hondurenho contra o atual governo? Por que vemos poucas pessoas nas ruas defendendo Zelaya? No Irã, pelo simples fato de ter se suspeitado de corrupção, muito mais gente foi às ruas. Na Venezuela vemos claramente que o país está dividido, muito mais gente foi às ruas. Por que em honduras, tão pouca gente vai às ruas?

[NicosNicosNicosNicos]

Sei la, talvez tem gente mais isso nao se ve nos meios. Tambem e certo que os militares cortam as ruas e detem a quem quer partecipar.

E certo que os meios internacionais tem MUITO mais vontade de publicar noticias contrarias ao governo do Ira, enquanto a ditadura hondurena e de direitas e favoreceria as multinacionais, como Chiquita, United Fruit, CNN, Reuters, a BBC, etc.

[TempyKeller]

I totally agree with this man who spoke out! I hope they didn't kill him, because thye are killing all those who have opposed them!

FUCKING scumbags!

[TempyKeller]

I live in Honduras, and I want that motherfucking Micheletti OUT oh here! He is a fucking son of bitch, and EVERYONE with a brain and a heart HATES HIM!

The country is HUNGRY! The farmers ARE HUNGRY! THE CHILDREN ARE HUNGRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[1140Cecile]

There was no coup of democratic governments in Iraq or Afghanistan. I agree, it's up the the people of a country to first establish their own democracy but after that, all democracies should stand together when one is attacked.

[NicosNicosNicosNicos]

The US could have done well by CEASING SUPPORT for the coup-mongers, ie: freezing all their US assets immediately; Obama condemning them publicly in the UN instead of remaining conspicuously silent; not reprimanding Zelaya for returning to the country he is supposed to be serving as president, etc. etc. etc.

[1140Cecile]

I tend to agree with you that the US response might have been stronger but I would prefer if the strength came from the OAS as a group rather than a US led initiative.

[1140Cecile]

You're thinking as a nationalist. Try putting this situation into a local context. If your next door unarmed neighbors were being held hostage by a armed group and you and all the other neighbors around that house had weapons, would you sit back and say that it is the hostages sole responsibility to disarm to captors and that the neighbors have no moral responsibility to help the hostages?

[random0815]

the real power big finance sees such things just as case studies, if it works it could be applied elsewhere, people dont even have to consciously think about it, its all in the system, fe. stock prices of pro-coup corporations / their intern. partners go up bet on the winner!

its not only about Honduras, its about precedent

[PaulHenry14]

its not that complicated of a issue. zelaya tried to change the constitution to fit his own interests. the people and the army of the people said he was breaking the law. it was never a coup. if this was to happen id hope other nations would do the same. why are the people of honduras not able to choose their leader?

yeah, but americans have no balls anymore, only big bellies from all the junk food. and old honduran grandma has more balls!

/to be honest the difference is probably that these people will be affected directly but what is going on and they know who to blame it on. /

[1140Cecile]

Well, America couldn't do it until the Republicans first kidnap Obama and fly him off to exile. Once that occurred, I'm sure the Americans would have a revolution to toss out the Republican coup and re-establish democracy.

[PaulHenry14]

the republicans wouldnt "kidnap" obama unless he did what zelaya is doing which is trying to extend his power and change the constitution just for his own personal gain.

[1140Cecile]

Obama doesn't have the power to change the Constitution so I guess there won't be another American Revolution in that case.

[PaulHenry14]

yup i guess not

[AndrewMann552]

Zelaya is now back in Honduras!

The masses are mobilizing!

Down with the fascist coup!

[saki01248]

madmanatsea Still elections is needed,if Zelaya can't be elected maybe people of Honduras want someone from his party to continue the work he started.This is COUP and you know that,what you trying is to legitimize a dictatorship just like Regan was doing.

[libertits]

Thank you for your solidarity with our peoples.. We have vowed to not vote and boycott electionsbecause they are deemed to be fraudulent. 4 out of the 6 candidates are pro-Coup, and the 2 against it will not participate unless Zelaya is brought back and human rights are respected.. Those 4 candidates have met with Clinton already (for the Millenium Challenge, which til a little while ago was still supporting the coup financially)and are close to Micheletti, so it's a lose-lose game for Honduran.

[wisdomist]

This is a fascist coup.

The democratically elected President of Honduras, Mr. Zelaya, was kidnapped while in his pajamas and flown out of his country.

The CIA was involved in the coup, as Hugo Chavez of Venezuela stated from the beginning.

Now, the people of Honduras who are resisting the criminal gang that has taken over their country are being violently repressed by the military.

[libertits]

That Taliban analogy was just spot on.

[captcrais101]

I think America needs a new constitution too.

[madmanatsea]

Zelaya lucky to be a FREE man flying all over latin america and coming back and forth to the usa. Zelaya DISOBEYED Honduran Supreme Court ORDER, issued on 5/27/09, SUSPENDING his 'encuesta'! You CAN'T DISOBEY a COURT ORDER here in the USA and Neither can Obama. When the USA President won't give Congress the Documents, recordings, email,etc., that Congress wants, then it goes to the USA Supreme Court for a COURT ORDER to make the President hand it over! If HE refuse, then REMOVED!!

[AndrewMann552]

He's baaack!

Down with the fascist coup!

[sillyeek]

yeah.. and it's constitutional to kidnap the president..cmon..

[blackiron60]

People are beginning to realize that democracy is not a simple matter of procedure or formality. It is economic and social as well as political, it is a way of life and people have to be willing to fight to uphold and expand it.

[gge2448]

Ultimately, no one really knew what changes were being aimed for with the Constituent Assembly. That's what precipitated this crisis, and Zelaya is just as equal to blame as anyone else. In a republic, decisions are taken by a majority decision, but the rule of law is supreme and the rights of ALL social groups are respected. A populist democracy is no better than an autocracy. After all, if the majority approves of the murder or expulsion of a minority, it doesn't make it right.

[StopFascismdotcom]

Thank you so much for covering this story. The people of the world must help them get their country back. I hope this movement sparks revolutions around the world. The time is now for the people of the world to take down their corporate ruled puppets and restore power back to the people.

[chickenandbear]

As a fellow Honduran, who is NOT rich nor Palestinian... I ask you... how can you back up the actions of one of many corrupt and self-indulging governments? How has vandalism suddenly become heroic? Are you really ready to leave the country to be run by people who cannot even properly read and write? And are you really gonna talk about values when Zelaya is a proven thief, adulterous man? Sounds IDIOTIC to me

[libertits]

vandalism? what on earth are you talking about? Peaceful protests, what you see here (look at my video archive if you want), is by no means vandalism. If you think to protest is not a universal human right, I advice you to stop being a slave. This is what makes democracy be democracy, the people rule, not an elite. Do you understand that democracy is defined by the people, for the people and of the people?I don't see how Zelaya, accordingly to your hypothetical claims, could have been reelected.

[libertits]

If I wanted to rob a bank, yet didn't do it, do I deserve to become impeached of something I didn't actually do but wanted to do? If everyone accused of hypothetically WANTING to do something had to be expatriated, as the Honduran law (article 102) forbids to ANY honduran to be ousted and entered to the authorities of another country, then Honduras might become an underpopulated country.

[libertits]

As there are 6 candidates, since last year, nominated for the upcoming elections and Zelaya isn't amongst them, I don't see how the fourth ballot (something that never took place) could have meant automatically or guaranteed his reelection. So your self-indulging argument is purely speculative and international law is not based on speculations. There must be a trial and the accused should be heard and defeated on it, according to article 94, EVEN if he had been dispatched from his functions

[libertits]

Zelaya is proven a thief by whom? by La Prensa, El Heraldo, and La Tribuna?? Oh so trustworthy evidence sustained by the owner of half of Honduras, Canahuati, are you idiotic enough to buy it? Has there been a trial? has solid evidence been presented to a Court? Ok, if history during Nazi Germany had been written in books, accordingly to what Goebbels, Hitler's propaganda guy said, then believe me, the world history would be completely different. If media wrote history we'd be fucked.

[hugochinchilla]

Only the people save the people.

Nor Zelaya neither Michelletti or superman or any other politician is going to save the people. Politicians in Honduras are only interested in securing their future not the people

[hugochinchilla]

all politicians in this country are the same, they never help the people only deceive with false promises

[hugochinchilla]

I agree with everything Oscar says because I'm tired of seeing that only rich people have benefits in this country but i do not support Zelaya's thoughts because he is a tyrant who only seeks his own benefit.

A year ago I went to the mountain to see poor people who is dying of hunger. They never received support from the President. Where was Mel? Mel was spending money in expensive trips...

[prudentheart]

The power is in the name Yehushua, not Jesus. Zeus is a Greek God. Yeshua is Hebrew. Cast the demon into the Abyss. Yeshua rebuked demons and He sent them someplace. If you are going to aprehend a criminal you must take him to jail as well. This fight is against spiritual wickedness in high places. This is not flesh and blood; if you fight this way you will lose because "all power, in heaven and earth was given to Yeshua" not humans. This evil is not mere man, this evil is really SATAN! SEE!

[nowellian]

It was a completely illegal coup! The military broke in and arrested and deported a stand president.

Right wing liars are controlling the dialogue in the Western media.

Return democracy to Honduras! The general who overthrew the government was trained in the US at the SOA in Ft. Benning, GA.

[playful316]

The more I see these vids released by the so called ''RealNews'' I'm starting to think that they are a integral part of the propaganda machine that starts up high in Dc right now..Realnews..My ass..More like its real cause WE SAY IT IS

[TenseAlcyoneus]

You almost completely uninformed or a complete liar.

LA Times: tiny(.)cc/HondurasNonCoup

Wall St. Journal: tiny(.)cc/HondurasDefendsDemoc­racy

BBC: tiny(.)cc/CoupProvoked481

Everyone agrees that Zelaya was heard and rebuked by both the Congress and Supreme Court. He defied constitutional government. The Supreme Court had him arrested after he refused to vacate office after becoming unqualified.

No serious observer disputes these facts. You, and The UnReal News, are simply lying.

[goodspelr]

The Real News used to be better than this. There is no mention that Zelia completely ignored, the supreme court, his own party, military, congress and the rule of law. If it weren't for those irresponsible actions he'd still be in power.

[revelwoodie]

goodspeir: His name is Zelaya, not Zelia. And the majority of Hondurans support the reforms he was proposing. And it seems strange to me that you purport to be concerned about the "rule of law" while also supporting a miltary government that came to power through a coup.

[NicosNicosNicosNicos]

....and continuously tramples on the law AND has suspended the constitution they pretended to defend.

[chanc812]

with no help, the honduran people will surley fall... perhaps it is are responsability? when will the day come?

[zayadnay]

lol holy crap! this bitch is crazy hahaha praying against demons and witchcraft hahahaha

[1140Cecile]

Does it remind you of an ex Alaskan governor by any chance?

[dprwdrNC]

It, also, reminds me of another christo-fascist Latin American leader from the Reagan era. One Gen. Rios Mott in Guatemala. He presided over violence to the trade unions, campesinos, and especially the indigenous, all while engaging in tongue-speaking pentecostal cum political rallies while praising Jebus.

[random0815]

its probably the same breed - maybe even the same houses - as the american prederminists like "the family", "success is a sign of being chosen"..

[1140Cecile]

Is that the C Street guys you're referring to?

[random0815]

well yes, but rather their general brand of basically religious social darwinism which in the end has characterized the whole nation

[TenseAlcyoneus]

Not true. Paste this link into your browser, removing parentheses.

tiny(.)cc/ZelayaHadAHearing

"The Supreme Court, by a 15-0 vote, found that Mr. Zelaya had acted illegally by proceeding with an unconstitutional 'referendum,' and it ordered the Armed Forces to arrest him [...] Eight of the 15 votes on the Supreme Court were cast by members of Mr. Zelayas own Liberal Party."

asdqwezxc69, you are wrong on the facts. So is The UnReal News.

[AndrewMann552]

The Honduran people are rising up!

They will overthrow the fascists!

[Cefuroxx]

how fucking dare these military personnel go against the people, the constitution! ... they always do! wtf is their problem?!

[onlygoodhunsadeadun1]

Free Honduras !

[1140Cecile]

It's good to see the Honduran people standing up for their rights to elect their own representatives and refusing to accept a dictator put in power by a coup. It is disgraceful that the OAS haven't put together a multi-national force to invade Honduras and restore their duly elected president to office.

[gdernie]

welcome to the NWO. How funny, this is happening around the world. Even US Patriots are standing up against complete take overs.

[PdishmonkeyJJ]

gorriletti=dictator

zelaya=president

[2minstral]

Whats next for Honduras after another fixed election takes place? A revolution by the people!

[TenseAlcyoneus]

Again, HOW IS IT A COUP? The Congress impeached Zelaya, the Supreme Court reviewed it and sided with Congress, and Zelaya himself admits he refused to obey the Supreme Court.

The UnReal News is simply lying with this headline.

[mistarcraw]

it's a coup, moron. the people don't want the shitty constitution Reagan wrote for them.

[TenseAlcyoneus]

The Congress is democratically elected. The Congress acted, legally, to remove the PResident, who acted illegally.

That is not a coup.

The Real News is simply lying.

[panstriato2]

I they had acted legally the president would have faced a court not exile.

This is a coup

[TenseAlcyoneus]

It's not a coup.

Zelaya faced a court, The Supreme court ruled for the Congress. The Honduran Constitution is absolutely clear. ONLY the congress can call a referendum. Any President who tries to modify the Constitution to extend his term is AUTOMATICALLY disqualified from office.

The Congress tool Zelaya to court, and Zelaya lost. He then incited mobs to break into a warehouse and steal impounded ballots. He was them sent out of the country by an almost unanimous vote of the Congress.

[VelhoMc]

He did NOT try to extend his term and you know that. The fact that the coup supporters keep repeating something that is a proven lie only shows how out of arguments they are.

[TenseAlcyoneus]

Then why did Zelaya import hundreds of thousands of ballots with a term extension referenda item on them?

[VelhoMc]

Did the ballots have such an item? Where did you get this information from?

And if that's the case, them why is it that the judiciary has never mentioned anything about article 239 and the term limit issue?

[TenseAlcyoneus]

The Congress impeached him for it.

[mistarcraw]

you really have a tough time understanding what an actual democracy is without tools of political repression dont ya? how about you dispute the facts that the real news presents, instead of well-funded propaganda that doesnt even have any empirical bearing on reality

[szol2005]

So true

[VexRiot]

Everything sounded great until he expressed his hateful and unbalanced view of Christianity.

[Dondonovan]

Uh... Exactly where is he being "hateful"? When he mentions that the president is a religious conservative that is against the gay community? I think you need to look at the video again.

[VexRiot]

The part where he makes the comparison to the Taliban. That's a stupid exaggeration.

[theresponderful]

He did not express a view on Christianity. Christianity is not a monolith. He expressed a view on how a certain group applies the words of the religion.You might want to rethink your comment on behalf of all those Christians who don't feel the need to promote violence against the queer community.

What a refreshing video! The Honduran people are a light in the dark right now! And they want us to talk about Chavez??? Fuck Chavez, Viva la resistencia hondurena!

[VexRiot]

There's no mention of violence being promoted and anyways anyone who does promote violence is completely wrong in their beliefs.

[carnut666]

get over it. in most parts of the world all religon does is fuck shit up.

what a surprise people outside of it have a negative view of it

[VexRiot]

That's propaganda. People fight over anything.

[flyhead2]

The stench of the IMF and the School of the Americas hangs heavy in the air. People who still harbour optimism for the Obama regime must be deaf, dumb and stuffed.

[krum369]

It's rather disturbing that the U.S media went crazy over the "Rigged" elections in Iran, they even maid an Iranian translator on Google and put up ad's in youtube, yet when something bigger happens in South America they turn a blind eye.

[flyhead2]

Good comment.

[kschumannjr]

U.S. media in its current form is shit. Our political reporters are more worried about what Obama's opinion on the "Kanye incident" is and not actual news.

[t4ac3y1]

Thank you for that... you're right on target!
