Defying a coup and bolstered by international support, ousted President Manuel Zelaya said he will return to Honduras on Thursday to serve out the rest of his term.
He said he would be accompanied by the Argentine and Ecuadorean presidents, and the U.N. General Assembly and Organization of American States chiefs.
But the interim government -- set up after the army bundled Zelaya out of the Central American country on Sunday -- said it would arrest him if he tried to re-enter Honduras.

Most welcome. :)
Obama: “I’ll just have to be extra careful.”
What if he does so order. The US still has a civilian controlled military. However it is fair to say that Obama is ""confused, disoriented and unable to answer questions" so he satisfies his own criteria for an Inspector General to be removed from office.
The ultimate goal of Obama may very well be to break American power in any way possible, so as to give a chance for other forces to remake the world (e.g. Muslim imperialism).
DEATH to Israel!!!!!!
In Honduras ,exiled leaders are permanently thrown out. If you try to come back. you are then summarily executed. I cannot figure out why his wife is still there
An excellent description!
It's also rather interesting to see how much control Obama has over the World Bank. Normally slow in everything, they have run to do his bidding.
He wants to crush Honduras for opposing him.
Unless we keep this before the public eye (since the press sure isn’t doing so), I wouldn’t be in the least surprised if Obama tries to order our troops to reinstall Zelaya. I don’t think he’d dare to do it if whatever remains of a free press (mostly talk radio and bloggers) keeps shouting about what’s really going on. He’ll continue to try to punish Honduras, but not with our troops.
Of course, if he does order them out, I don’t know what would happen. I can’t imagine that they would defy him but perhaps he’s not really sure what would happen, either, and this may hold him back.
I think it’s one of the reasons he’s trying to build his own personal army (in the guise of these youth “volunteer” programs) and also replace as many people as possible in the regular military, particularly through pushing “diversity” appointments. He wants a military that is loyal to him personally.

President Manuel Zelaya is promoting a Sunday referendum on constitutional changes that has plunged the country into crisis by setting the president at odds with the military, the courts and the legislature that have branded the vote illegal.

His attempt to call for a constituional convention through a referendum that the executive branch was going to hold, was blatantly unconstitutional and had been ruled as such by the Hinduran supreme court...but he was going to go ahead with it anyway. So, in an effort to save their constitutional republic, the Supreme Court and a majortiy of the legislature had him aprehended and ousted by the military.
Now the legislature has put in place an interim government and their will be new elections.
Obama and every other marxist in this Hemisphere is upset because another attempt to force marxism has been thwarted.
“Everything that was done was done in accordance with the Honduran Constitution and its established procedures.”
Their constitution calls for impeachment by the Congress and trial by the Supreme Court. Maybe it was done that way or maybe not. The problem is, they didn’t do a public trial. That would have dispelled all doubt that he was legally ousted.
BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA IN HIS OWN WORDS
NOW WE KNOW WHAT A COMMUNITY ORGANIZER DOES
OBAMA, THE STOCK MARKET, AND ENERGY
THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA'S UPBRINGING
A socialist coup occurred on January 20, 2009 in Washington DC and went unreported on in the “press”.
I think the military can take care of itself in case of invasion. During the “Soccer War” of 1969, Honduras slaughtered El Salvador.

He had actually entered into the conditions for summary removal because of his attempt to stage an auto-golpe (a self coup) and his consistent violation of every court order he had received regarding it. This wasn’t just ordinary misconduct, although he seems to have been guilty of that, as well.
>>Hmmm, popcorn alert! Maybe obama would like to go with him?<<
I wish he would.
It would show him what he will be up against when he tries it but Honduras is a small country and a drop in the bucket compared to what Obama will face when / if he tries this BS.
When did Obamba change the rules ? Confusing ...... Is Obama now an Arrogant POS?
Zero is a compulsive meddler. As a Senator, in 2006 and 2007, well into 2008, Obama campaigned for, and supported Islamofascist Rial Odinga in the Kenyan National election of 2007.Odinga is from Obama's paternal Luo tribe of Kenya.
When Odinga lost, Obama likely advized him to take it to the streets, and genocide occurred as a result. And if Obama meddles in Honduras, thousands will die. Obama is a neo colonialist, spreading Chicago Black Power politics around the world, under a mask of Hope and Change.
Yes, he is an arrogant POS.
