Honduran military coup needs stronger response from U.S.

Editor,

It has now been three months since the democratically elected president of the Republic of Honduras was forced into exile after a military coup. Since President Manuel Zelaya was forced from office at the barrel of a gun for attempting to redistribute wealth to the lower classes, he recently returned incognito and has been holed up in the Brazilian embassy in the capital Tegucigalpa. The puppet regime that illegally took power since this national violation has made it common practice to murder and torture Zelaya supporters, shut down opposition radio stations and imposed martial law.

How has the U.S. responded to this violation of democracy in its own hemisphere? ...........

2. Hey, if they won't "privatize" all their resources as a consequence, screw the people!
The USA only cares about the potential rape of honduran resources ... not the populace. :wow:
