The curfew that gave verbal ammunition to Zelaya’s supporters and even CNN, has been lifted. Friends of Chávez had gleefully denounced the curfew as a “suspension of constitutional rights” in Honduras, and the world news media parroted that line.

But I’m burning with anger with what Chavez is saying now: “We need to sweep the dictatorship in Honduras!” Dictatorship. the word he refuses to permit anyone to apply to him. The word that describes him perfectly. The “defenders of democracy” Fidel and Chávez denounce Micheletti as a dictator! Someone please check them into an asylum!

“War is Peace. Freedom is Slavery. Ignorance is Strength”, were the slogans of English Socialism in George Orwell’s novel, Nineteen Eighty-Four. Venezuela is fast approaching this level of mass deception.

What motivated Chávez to say such a vile and shameless lie? The expulsion of his spies, sorry, ministers of disinformation, sorry, govenrnment controlled media agents, sorry, ah, there’s the word: journalists. These people, have so violated their conscience in favor of Chávez propaganda, that I hesitate to use such a word for them. It is too good for them. Michelleti’s government sent them packing today.

I’m sure the media will go crazy at this suppression of the “freedom of the press”. If this is so, why is Tiempo, a major newspaper, publishing stories in favor of Zelaya? Nowhere in Latin America is press freedom endangered or non-existent except those countries controlled by Fidel, Chávez and friends.

In contrast the community of faith in Hondurans, Catholics, Protestants and Jews, have come together at the capital’s baseball stadium to pray for Honduras. Never before have these groups put aside their differences and met together in such a massive way. And we need to keep praying.

Let Chavez rail, and expose his hypocrisy for the world to see. Let Zelaya’s wolfskin show beneath the sheep’s clothing.
