Oct 30, 2009

Last night, Oct. 29, Honduras' de facto regime finally agreed to allow

Conceding to international and national pressure, the Honduran coup
appears to be facing its final days.

28 was the date when the Armed Forces kidnapped the elected president,
Manuel Zelaya, and forcibly exiled him to Costa Rica. If the agreement
brokered this week holds, the Honduran resistance movement will have

Action Alert from IFCO/Pastors for Peace on behalf of the National Resistance Front Against the Coup in Honduras:
“DIALOGUE” IS AT A STALEMATE; REPRESSION CONTINUES;
SEND POSTCARDS TO OBAMA!

1) Since October 7 a misleading process of “dialogue” has taken place
in Honduras between the illegal coup forces and representatives of
President Zelaya and the Resistance Front. The coup government has
tried to use these so-called "negotiations" to delay the return of
democracy while continuing to maintain a state of siege. The
representatives of the National Resistance Front Against the Coup left
the dialogue after it was made clear that the most important issue to  read more »

THE NIGHTMARE OF ALL TIME
swaneagle harijan

So much bleakness. Pain unrivaled and horrors defy spoken word. How much worse will it get? I am afraid so much worse, so, so, so much. How to call to the best humanity has to give??

Even if he does live thru the threats and exposure of true red, white and blue bigotry, how much will he capitulate to the killing machine devastating all life and the future?  read more »
