2. hyperbole? perhaps...
A couple things though - 1) I think machetera would assume it's readers are well aware of US training still going on in Honduras, although not being associated with machetera, I can't say for certain.

2) I haven't found this story posted anywhere else. So if *not* for this interview with the president of the Honduran Human Rights Commission, how else would we have any awareness of Israeli involvement?

3) The bigger issue - why is Israel lending support to an undemocratic military coup regime? (which it sounds like it's getting more out of control in Honduras as of yesterday's reports)

How can both the U.S. and Israel talk seriously about being for democracy when clearly they are lending crucial support to a very undemocratic government?
