"This morning military personal kidnapped Honduran president
Manuel Zelaya. According to one witness, 200 soldiers arrived at the
president's house at 6am this morning, 4 shots were
fired and later they left in vehicles towards the air base. The
soldiers also took over the government television station, Channel 8,
and took it off air. Zelaya is currently speaking live on Telsur TV,
from Costa Rica."

Caracas, Venezuela - The text message that beeped on my cell phone
this morning read "Alert, Zelaya has been kidnapped, coup d'etat
underway in Honduras, spread the word." It's a rude awakening for a
Sunday morning, especially for the millions of Hondurans that were
preparing to exercise their sacred right to vote today for the first
time on a consultative referendum concerning the future convening of a
constitutional assembly to reform the constitution.
