Zeleya in Honduras

Just a disaster and a powder keg waiting to happen, all courtesy of Chavez with a big time assist from the feckless Obama admin:

TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras (AP) -- Deposed President Manuel Zelaya made a dramatic return to Honduras' capital Monday, taking shelter from arrest at Brazil's embassy and calling for negotiations with the leaders who forced him from the country at gunpoint.

The interim government initially ordered a 15-hour curfew, but then extended it to a 26-hour shutdown of the capital, but thousands of Zelaya supporters ignored the decree and remained outside the embassy, dancing and cheering.

Others in the capital rushed home, lining up at bus stands and frantically looking for taxis. Electricity was cut off for hours at a time on the block housing the embassy and in areas of Tegucigalpa where news media offices are located -- something that happened the day of the coup that ousted the leftist leader.

Security Vice Minister Mario Perdomo said checkpoints were being set up on highways leading to the capital to keep out Zelaya's supporters from other regions, to ''stop those people coming to start trouble.'' Later, Defense Minister Lionel Sevilla said all flights to Tegucigalpa had been suspended indefinitely.

Understand, this is about Chavez building a sereis of client states beholden and allied to him, at the expense of freedom and democracy for the people of the America's. As for Clinton's response:

Reuters reported on Ms. Clinton’s comments to the media, after she met the Costa Rican president, who is trying to help resolve the political crisis.

“It’s imperative that dialogue begin … (that) there be a channel of communication between President Zelaya and the de facto regime in Honduras,” Clinton said after she meet Costa Rican President Oscar Arias, who sought to broker a resolution to the crisis that followed Zelaya’s June 28 ouster.

“It’s also imperative that the return of President Zelaya does not lead to any conflict or violence but instead that everyone act in a peaceful way to try to find some common ground,” she told reporters.
