Hondura In US Mass Media: Curfew in Honduras
Hondura In US Mass Media
As of July 6, 2009 the military repression of the Coup in Honduras yields the following:
Curfew in Honduras.
Thousands of marchers in various cities protesting the Coup and backing the ousted legitimate President of Honduras. University students took control and shot down that school.
6 deaths, one caused by a police vehicle running over a young man in Tegucigalpa.
More than 80 wounded by gun shots and more than 800 arrested.
Unknown number of opposition leaders persecuted, taken from their homes and missing
Monsignor Rodriguez is with the Coup, Monsignors Sanchez and Tamayo are for Democracy
Secretary Clinton still has not yet taken action against the Coup, as is she was waiting for thing to cool down to see if it could be forgotten.
President Obama is still talking about it, but not only not giving the American people details of if/ or what involvement his Democratic government had in the antidemocratic Coup, but also like Clinton pretty inert on taking action against the Coup, why? US have Palmerola, a military base in Honduras; was it or was it not in any way involved in that Coup?
Not long ago John Negroponte, who in the 1980s together with Felix Rodriguez, Coronel James Steele and Luis Posada Carriles guided Honduran paramilitary groups and the contras to spread terror against the Sandinistas in Nicaragua, visited Palmerola and the US embassy in Honduras; why?
Human Rights groups that had been very active against China, Iran and Cuba are also keeping pretty quiet regarding the assassinations, beatings, kidnapping, etc. going on by the Coup in various cities in Honduras, why?
The US Mass Media is keeping a low profile on the violence and human rights violations by the Coup down there; why? The US Mass Media is also keeping cool about Washington’s cool attitude towards the overthrown of “Freedom and Democracy” in Honduras; why? What is really going on down there and up here? Inform us objectively and please the truth!!!
Note: from past performances it is obvious that Washington has manuals for setting up Coups in Latin American and the Caribbean, but does not have a manual for undoing it?
Latinos sin Fronteras, Los Ángeles.
