11. One of the videos somewhere in this forum shows a look at one of them.
I looked through several of them, didn't find it, yet.

I'll post it if I find one again.

Under the wrapper, etc., is the company which made them, and it's in Pennsylvania!

9. Zelaya Sounds Normal
I'm listening to an interview Zelaya is giving on TV, and he sounds ok. I also noticed the photographs shown on referenced websites show the same individuals...so exactly how large is this resistance? I got a feeling it's a mediatic invention rather than a really strong movement. If it were, they would be working hard to get their presidential candidate elected, and I don't see them doing that.

10. I read yesterday that the UN finally got some doctors in there who confirmed
something radical had happened to the people inside the embassy.

I think maybe rabs posted it.

This is something for which the scum Pinochettis will need to be tried once they have been removed from their highjacked government.

15. Playing Iron Butterfly
I hear the coup leaders have CIA advisors who told them to play Iron Butterfly's Inagaddadavida over and over. The Brazilians will have to counter-attack with very loud bossa nova. If that doesn't work, they could try The Carpenters, that would drive any self respecting Honduran general to commit suicide.

17. Odd photo from Honduras published Saturday:


A soldier points his weapon to supporters of ousted Honduras' President Manuel Zelaya outside the Sept. 26: Brazilian embassy in Tegucigalpa. Honduras' interim leader Roberto Micheletti said Zelaya might be allowed to leave Brazil's embassy where he has taken refuge without being arrested if he is granted political asylum outside the country.
