Re: Re: Re: Re: Chicago Presente! Protesting the Coup in Honduras

Fired?
I think the real issue is that the oligarchy in Honduras which has power in both of the main parties (National and Liberal) is so afraid of the growing push for, and potential threat to their interests of popular participation or what Latin America is calling participatory democracy that they decided that a military coup and then a crack down on all mass organizations, media and on the dissident members of Congress (from Zelayas' faction of the Liberal Party and from the left party, the UD)was their only hope. In fact it isn't just the Honduran oligarchy that is involved, there are close ties with the Miami gusanito gang as well as the rest of the unhappy tradiditonal right wing and death squad crowd from Latin America. (As for the role of the U.S. behind the public facade?) Under these situations you gotta take a stand -- doesn't mean no criticism of Zelaya or anyone else, but it seems like some of the compas who are commenting on these pages are disoriented and need to check the compass.
