Thank you Truthdig for at least mentioning what is happening in Honduras. Even “liberal” outlets like MSNBC have ignored the heroic resistance against fascism next door and instead continue obsessing over Obama’s publicity stunts.

the US is the only governement that has maintain and ambassador in Honduras. It continues to fund the coup government while maiataining lipservice to Zelaya. Obama says he favors Zelaya with his trademark inspiring duplicity, saying one thing and doing the other.
the coup governemtn put the people of the entire country under house arrest to stop the protests. Note that the US media blanked this out, and truthdig only reported it when the decree ws lifted.

While the world condemns the coup, the US refuses to offer support for Zelaya’s cause. You have to wonder why the US is passive in this matter, meanwhile claiming we want improved relations with Latin America. An oligarchy overthrowing democracy isn’t a good enough cause? Let’s face it, the US is perfectly happy watching a government fail that is sympathetic to Chavez and Venezuela.
