Piffle, you admitted you don’t care much about the history of the place, and no, supporting a coup to counteract a controversial move by Zelaya does not make it right.

On top of that, the army of Honduras was not told to take Zelaya to exile, the army then produced a “my resignation” document from Zelaya that the evidence showed it was fake or forced at gun point, then that document was used by the non-unanimous (there were members of the congress that were not present in protest) Honduran congress to vote Zelaya out, then the real wannabe dictator, Micheletti, ordered the closing and shut down of opposition media in Honduras.

There have been also several murders of people that opposed the coup. And against all that, people like you offer just what it amounts to pre-crimes of Zelaya.

Learn real history instead of fantasies like “Minority Report”
