Rinaldo Francesca The situation was hot: the people were out there on the streets, the streets, shouting in unison its terms. He wanted democracy and freedom. He wanted to be governed by people who had received his vote, not that horrendous dictator at the head military junta and, entrenched in his palace, unleashed the army to fire on protesters - on his own people - and already there were of the dead were . [1]
Amnesty International spoke of " arbitrary mass arrests and mistreatment of prisoners . [2]
And yet, with the world's eyes fixed on him, Barack Obama rimaneva inamovibile: gli Stati Uniti non sarebbero intervenuti.
Eh no cari, diceva il Saggio Presidente, non si poteva continuare così, con quest'ipocrisia da sinistroidi: criticare costantemente gli USA per essersi sempre impicciati dei fatti altrui, e adesso – tutt'a un tratto – mettersi a frignare perché non veniva alzato un dito per andare in soccorso al popolo dell'Honduras.
Oops, scusate: dobbiamo aver estratto questo file per errore!
Si cercava qualcosa – ovviamente – riguardo all'entusiastico interventismo nell'attuale situazione che ribolle e spaventa, laggiù, in quel della Libia... e guarda un po' tu che cosa ci va a capitare sotto gli occhi! Io e le mie mani maldestre! I ask you humbly apologize.
Yes, you have just read the stuff that goes back a year and a half ago, in the scorching summer of 2009. A military junta had stormed the palace of President Manuel Zelaya in the middle of the night, arresting a democratically elected president to install a provisional government, headed by Roberto Micheletti such a (certain: when it comes to military dictatorships, fascist, we say that a dear, old Italian family name is a bit 'as a hallmark).
mortal sin committed by Zelaya, it seems, was to raise the minimum wage union - a move very rude against multinational fruit Honduras underpaid their workforce (Dole, Chiquita, etc). [3]
The reaction to the coup by the people of Honduras was then clear: the Hondurans wanted the president to whom they had voted, except that their president no longer had any control over the military forces of this and casually fired less of the crowd, beating, arresting and brutalizing citizens in solidarity with Zelaya. It was then, in the midst of vague terms about the need to leave it up to the Hondurans to find the ideal compromise for them, which would guarantee a strong and prosperous future, etc etc, the president Barack Obama gave this speech , we could not to resist resurrecting:
"The same critics who say that the U.S. did not intervene enough then are the same people who say they always act, and that the Yankees need to go from Latin America. If these critics consider it appropriate that we put ourselves suddenly and behave in ways that in any other context, they would find it unfair, then I think this is perhaps a sign of a great hypocrisy in their approach to the relations between the U.S. and Latin America. " [4]
Why, it is clear to all: if there is one thing that President Obama can not stand are hypocrites.
Then compare that speech - if you like - with another, about the situation in Libya, the fact solo una settimana fa dallo stesso signore:
“Ciò di cui voglio essere sicuro è che gli Stati Uniti abbiano piena capacità di operare e agire, potenzialmente con rapidità, nel caso la situazione deteriorasse in modo da risultare in una crisi umanitaria, o in una situazione in cui civili senza difese si ritrovassero intrappolati e in pericolo”. [5]
Mio eroe! Piena capacità di operare e agire – per chi non lo avesse capito – significa spiegamento delle forze armate, in tutta la loro possenza.
Allora aiutateci Voi: una popolazione di sette milioni in America Centrale. Un'altra di sei milioni in Nordafrica. Entrambe risolute a cacciare lo spauracchio antidemocratico fuori dal palazzo of power - or so we were told. Both at stake - or so we were told.
What that has meant that only in Honduras there was no hurry to make "full capacity to operate and act?
Please, tell us that this is more than that that have chosen the right PR manager!
Yeah because, you see, the junta's military coup in Honduras at least had the foresight to hire an excellent image editor: this Lanny Davis, an expert lobbyist and (drum roll) has always been PR manager of the family Clinton!
Ta-daaa!
So, is there really a secret? It was So this is the error of Colonel Gaddafi? Tsk-tsk
, Mu'ammar, how many times have you said and repeated: must first take the right image editor, then - where appropriate - the "caretaker" sexy ...
He learned even your faithful Silvio!
