"Honduran authorities lift curfew" by ASSOCIATED PRESS | July 13, 2009
TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras - Authorities yesterday lifted a curfew imposed since the ousting of President Manuel Zelaya two weeks ago - a sign the interim government is trying to restore normality to life in the crisis-gripped country.
In a nationally broadcast announcement, the interim government said the curfew had reached its objective to restore calm and curb crime. The administration of Roberto Micheletti imposed the curfew after soldiers escorted Zelaya out of the country at gunpoint on June 28, plunging Honduras into political turmoil. Hondurans were ordered to stay in their homes from 11 p.m. to 4:30 a.m. nightly.
The government briefly extended it from sunset to sunrise when Zelaya attempted to return to Honduras and the military blocked his plane from landing by parking vehicles on the runway July 5. Daily demonstrations for and against the forcibly exiled leader have disrupted transit and prompted many businesses to close.
I'm so sick of the lying.
Many governments have withdrawn their ambassadors to protest the coup. The interim government said Hondurans nationwide can go out at night starting Sunday. Juan Barahona, leader of the Zelaya support base, said officials were under pressure from bars and other businesses hurt by the curfew. “This is to give the world the impression that there is an environment of freedom in the country,’’ he said.
Venezuela’s President Hugo Chávez, who has been the most vociferous defender of Zelaya, said yesterday that Micheletti was behind the brief detention of journalists for his country’s leading state television channel.
And NOT a PEEP from the U.S.!
Oh, right, Honduras isn't Iran or North Korea!
Venezuela’s ABN state news agency reported that the seven were detained Saturday and later released after Venezuelan Foreign Minister Nicolas Maduro made efforts to secure their freedom.

"Talks to resume in Honduran political crisis; Ousted leader says people have right to an insurrection" by Freddy Cuevas, Associated Press | July 15, 2009
Making it sound as if Zelaya is the troublemaker! Sigh!
The chief mediator in talks to end Honduras’s political crisis, Costa Rican President Oscar Arias, urged Zelaya to “be patient.’’
He's done in less than six months! Actually, he's done now!
And do you know HOW SICK I AM of ebing told BE PATIENT?
I HAVE BEEN for YEARS but I am RUNNING OUT of them QUICK!
“I understand the desire of President Zelaya to return and reinstate himself as president of Hondurans as soon as possible, but my experience tells me that one has to be a little patient,’’ said Arias, who won the 1987 Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in ending Central America’s wars. “It’s not easy to get results in 24 hours.’’
Zelaya, who is recognized by virtually all foreign governments, is clearly frustrated by the slow movement of negotiations. The interim government has been trying to restore life to normal this week in the impoverished Central American nation by lifting a nighttime curfew in place since the coup and successfully urging tens of thousands of Honduran teachers and students to return to class.
One step away from PERMANENT GOVERNMENT!
Not illegal or illegitimate, huh, MSM? Interim?
Sounds like ACCEPTANCE to me!
Zelaya accused Micheletti’s government of using the talks “as a means to distract attention’’ from repression in Honduras, where protests for and against Zelaya’s return have filled the streets, though they have waned in recent days.
You SAW the PHOTO that went with this article, no?
The coup has drawn international condemnation, and nations, including the United States, have asked that Zelaya be reinstated....
But NO ONE is moving too fast!!!
Compare the reaction to the Honduras COUP with Hamas WINNING ELECTIONS! Hamas WON an ELECTION and was INSTANTLY SEALED UP in GAZA!!!
Honduras has a COUP and THINGS are RETURNING to NORMAL -- or SO SAYS the LYING, AGENDA-PUSHING S*** PRESS of AmeriKa!
