The current president of Honduras, Roberto Mitchelleti, has proposed to resign as president if Manuel Zelaya promises not to retake the position. The insurrection Zelaya called for did not seem to proceed in any form today and I believe this is due to the realization by the Honduran people that Zelaya is not going to be president again. I doubt Zelaya will accept this because until recently he thought he had enough power to be able to continue his term.
Meanwhile, a Telesur crew that was expelled from Honduras is asking that the Inter-American Press Society "take a stand." One should note that the Telesur network employees are not requesting that the IPS take a stand on the 200 news stations shut down in Venezuela for reporting positively on private property rights.
This connects to Iran where news is still shut down. The protests continue and the world turns away. I am trying to find new movements in Iran however it looks like the protests, however strong, are not creating any new changes in the situation. I try to get information but English and French sources have a common line: information is difficult to confirm. I want to have this blog have an opinion brought by me that is supported by confirmed facts. With international attention diverted, the rate of confirmed reports dropped drastically.
