2. And Pinochetti claims he's certain people are trying to assassinate him, the man who runs this hell.
We have heard of the Colombian death squads doing this to remove campesinos from the land which the Colombian government wants to sell to large companies, some of them for palm oil plantations.

It's the very same kind of hideous massacres of the poor and helpless. The very same.

This is happening in Honduras because the illegitimate greedy coup monsters, perverts, and ghouls have continued to get US financial support WHILE they do this.

The previous "landlords" were only allowed to LEASE the land, then the land reverted, legally. The coup leaders are supporting the theft of the land, and the mass murder and torture, terrorism against the surviving are residents.

Will we EVER see justice for these good people in our lifetimes? It's not looking good.

Thank you, Downwinder.

4. How responsible of the right-wing communications media to report a "peaceful eviction" to the world
Clearly it was peaceful for the coup leaders' agents because the Hondurans were unable to defend themselves against their own torture, rape, slaughter.

"Journalism" stopped being a public service when it started assisting the right-wing governments in controlling the people of the world through spreading darkness, and outright lies.

If ONLY there could be a ghost of a chance the good people of Honduras could be rescued from this evil, slick effortless eclipse by the scum of the world united behind and protected by the stolen power over military and police forces.

5. COFADEH's urgent statement on Aguán

The Committee of Relatives of Disappeared People in Honduras, COFADEH denounces to the national and international community that men, women and children detained in facilities of the Fifteenth Infantry Battalion are being subjected to torture by military and police in contravention of the Geneva Convention which prohibits absolutely the use of torture against civilians.
