Democracy Draws a Line in Honduras












[Getty Image]
Violent clashes erupted Sunday between Honduran troops and the supporters of ousted President Manuel Zelaya as the military began moving trucks into position to prevent a plane carrying Zelaya from landing. Police reported 2 deaths.


Following the attempted landing by Zelaya; Honduran interim President Roberto Micheltti accused Nicaragua of massing troops on their mutual border. Micheletti also urged President Daniel Ortega to respect Honduran sovereignty.

The Interim Government reported it had contacted the OAS to express it’s willingness for discussions following their earlier suspension from the group.

Curfews have been imposed at night and media blackouts have been reported as Honduras, one of Latin America’s poorest countries, struggles to deal with the freezing of millions of US dollars of international aid. Regional trade blockades and recalls of foreign ambassadors have also had an impact.

To get a focused picture of what is brewing in Central America one must look beyond the media posturing and bias. To gather as many facts as possible requires various sources and strategies. I have linked to and embedded some. Following some study, compile a set of questions and in seeking answers you will discover truth and gain understanding far beyond what is sold as news today.

Latin America expert and professor of Political Warfare at the Institute for World Politics Mike Waller gives an update on the situation in Honduras. Dr. Waller is the Center's Vice President for Information Operations. For an introduction to Political Warfare, see Dr. Waller's primer HERE:

Was this "ousting" in Honduras a "coup" or Impeachment?

Why would President Obama side with Leftists Ortega and Chavez? Enquiring Minds want to know...

Top Marxist Communist Policies Being Implemented By Obama Throughout history Communist leaders have seized power by promoting themselves as populists, and often completely hiding their own ideology. Indeed in a poll taken after Communist Hugo Chavez' first election victory in Venezuela, only 3% of the electors believed Chavez to be a Socialist, let alone a Communist. Currently 32% of Americans believe Obama to be a Socialist. The initial stages of Communization of a country invariably begin with seven basic steps: Seizing Control Over The Free Flow Of The Nation's Money Obama has stated that he wants to convert the stock the US government now owns in the nation's banks from preferred stock, which is the case currently, to common stock. This modification in type of stock may seem irrelevant at first glance, but under further analysis it is the single greatest communist policy the US government has ever adopted: It means that the federal government will control all of the cur

Monsanto Appeals Order to Uproot GM Sugar Beets   by Dan Flynn | Dec 02, 2010   The first possible destruction of a genetically modified crop in the United States is not going to happen without review by higher courts. Monsanto Company said Wednesday it would appeal a ruling by U.S. District Court Judge Jeffrey White of San Francisco to uproot limited late-season and isolated plantings of sugar beet seedlings, or stecklings, authorized in September under permits issued by USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS). It is possible the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), on behalf of APHIS, will join the Monsanto appeal. According to Monsanto, Judge White's order does not affect the 2010 Roundup Ready sugar beet seed crop, which had been planted earlier in the year, prior to the September permits. It said the destruction order would have little impact on the sugar beet crop that farmers anticipate planting in 2011. Stecklings produced in 2010 supply seed for root cr

High Stakes Gamble in Korea

Following a gambit of rocket launches and nuclear detonations the wicked powers that be in North Korea have upped the ante again, are they bluffing? Laura Ling, the sister of former The View co-host Lisa Ling, and fellow Current TV journalist Euna Lee have been sentenced to twelve years “reform by labor” for illegal border crossing. Calling it a "grave crime” against the Korean nation the Central Court of North Korea convicted and sentenced the two reporters in a trial that began last Thursday. The U.S. State Department said that outside observers were not allowed to witness the trial's proceedings. Friends and family of Ling and Lee insist that their border crossing was accidental and have been publicly pleading with the North Koreans for mercy in recent days. Ling and Lee were on assignment from Current TV working on a story of women and children who were refugees seeking aid and food in China. They were arrested March 17 along the Korean-Chinese border. While circumstances
