@ Deborah in Oregon -- You're absolutely misinformed.  Or you are intentionally spreading misinformation.<br />
<br />
The current government is not "illegal"; our own U.S. Library of Congress determined that there was no "coup", and that the government acted within the Honduran constitution in deposing the ex-President.  The only misstep by the gov't was to subsequently exile him from the country, and the gov't agreed to prosecute those responsible.<br />
<br />
You are absolutely misrepresenting events in Honduras.  The only group committing acts of violence is the mob of degenerates who want to put ex-President Zelaya back in power so he can finish establishing the dictatorship he was prevented from putting in place.  They have attacked peacekeepers with bricks, set restaurants, cars and buses on fire, planted explosives all over the capital city, and even kidnapped and/or killed family members of government officials.<br />
<br />
Since the constitutional succession in June, there have been three deaths during riots.  And I do mean riots, not peaceful demonstrations.  Since some of the rioters were firing guns, as well, it's difficult to determine who caused the deaths.  Ultimately, however, the rioters would not have been shot if they hadn't been committing acts of violence against peacekeepers, as well as damaging public and private property and threatening the populace.<br />
<br />
The only report I've heard of violence against women was the rumored beating Zelaya gave his estranged wife the other day, prompting her to leave the Brazilian embassy where he has entrapped himself.<br />
<br />
By the way, the agreement Zelaya and Micheletti signed the other day states explicitly that the Honduran congress will vote on whether OR NOT to reinstate Zelaya.  It looks like he will not be reinstated, and that is NOT a violation of the agreement.  The U.S. has agreed to support the upcoming elections in November, and it must do so, because this interim government has followed the agreement to the letter, no matter how uncomfortable Ian Kelly is with that fact.]]></description>
