Micheletti to lift state of siege
Edited on Mon Oct-05-09 01:39 PM by rabs






Article in golpista El Heraldo today says goriletti has decided to cancel the state of siege declared last week as of tomorrow (Tuesday).

-- goriletti said he had made the decision to "totally nullify" the decree because "it is no longer necessary because we have peace in the nation."

-----------------------------

So the golpista newspaper publishes a photo to go with the story of troops in the street to emphasize the "peace" goriletti talks about. Idiotas !!!

(edit to add link)




Tegucigalpa, Honduras
.
El presidente Roberto Micheletti dijo que el lunes derogará un decreto que desde hace más de una semana ha limitado los derechos civiles en Honduras por los llamados del destituido Manuel Zelaya a la insurrección desde la embajada de Brasil, en donde permanece recluido.

"Ese decreto ya no es necesario porque tenemos paz en el país", aseguró

1. Goriletti's going to need to requisition a regiment of his storm troopers
to walk ahead of him, carrying his nose, as it grows wildly each day he lies to the world.

Good question! Who are all those men beating, torturing, and killing Hondurans? Tourists?

Micheletti needs a dramatic awakening. He is taking too much assurance from being protected by the military, and police, and reactivated death squad people he has commandeered and bent to his service.

2. Globo reporting golpista regime has lifted decree today



that restricted civil liberties.

The golpistas apparently are taking this measure because this week will be crucial for determining the outcome of the situation.

The following will be arriving on Wednesday for negotiations with Micheletti and Zelaya:
The foreign ministers of
Mexico
Costa Rica
El Salvador
Ecuador
Panama

The vice foreign ministers of
Canada
Jamaica
Guatemala

The Spanish ambassador to Iberoamerica
A U.N. official representating U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon
OAS' Insulza

There is no representative from Hillary/Obama on the list, but Llorens will probably be in the mix.

There was a secret meeting of Llorens, Insulza and Roberto Maduro last Wednesday at the U.S. military base at Palmerola. That leads me to suspect that there may be a move afoot to install Maduro as interim president. (Maduro, of the Nationalist Party, was the president of Honduras before Zelaya.)

4. Less than 7 weeks for elections
Well, if they release the state of emergency it means they got the Brazilian embassy situation under control. Once the elections are over, the ultra-left will be out of steam.

10. Right. The elections no one will recognize, run by torturers.
Gotcha.

I guess it's "ultra left" in your parallel universe not to torture the press?

Gotcha.

7. Now some light on their sudden magnaminity! Makes perfect sense, rabs.
It did seem very abrupty decided, didn't it?

Those of us who care to know about this are VERY aware the resistance is NOT going away.

I imagine we can take it for granted that gusano idiot Llorens will be involved.

Thanks so much for the deeper information, and the insight.

8. The light bulb lights up ...



... when you say it was very abruptly decided.

The timeline:

Last Monday: (exactly a week ago) goriletti declares decree suspending civil liberties throughout Honduras for a period of 45 days.

Last Wednesday: Secret meeting at the U.S. base with goriletti meeting with Llorens, Insulza, Roberto Maduro and "others."

Today, goriletti regime announces decree has been nullified.

So suspect goriletti was told in no uncertain terms to lift the decree.

What intrigues me is why former president Maduro was at the meeting.

11. He's making his unnamed State Department supporters look bad!
Don't know a thing about Maduro. Will keep my eyes open for anything.

Thanks for mentioning their original plan: 45 days which would have taken them right to the doorstep of the election, not even considering the "handicap" handed one liberal candidate the cops beat senseless, broke arms, etc., and hospitalized right now.

5. No word yet on when Globo and 36 will be back on the air




Globo is still online, but very few Hondurans have computers, so for all intents and purposes, the pueblo is still mostly in the dark.

Forgot an important element in the secret meeting at Palmerola --- Micheletti was there too.

Hoping that magbana or Al Jiordano can pick up something about what transpired there.
