I haven\u2019t been, and will not be, a Republican (and anyone who is, after Bush\u2019s 2003 invasion of Iraq, is beneath even basic decency), but if Hillary becomes the Party\u2019s nominee, then the Democratic Party is just as rotten, from its top on down, as the Republican Party is \u2014 and, with Hillary as its Presidential nominee, anyone who would be denying the fact of its rottenness, under such a circumstance, would necessarily be either ignorant, stupid, or psychopathic. That\u2019s an undeniable scientific fact about the Party, if it runs a person such as that, <i>as its Presidential nominee<\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">After the Nazi Party ran Adolf Hitler as its nominee in Germany\u2019s 1933 election, is there anyone today who would vote Nazi who isn\u2019t ignorant, stupid, and\/or psychopathic? Of course not. For the masses of people in Honduras \u2014 the murder capital of the world after Hillary stanched up and defended and kept in power its fascist coup-regime in 2009 \u2014 their country is approximately as terrifying as Hitler\u2019s Germany was terrifying to Jews. All decent people will feel repugnance at the very thought of Hillary Clinton becoming the Democratic Party\u2019s nominee, and no intelligent person will trust anything she says, because her record shows her true character, which is plain repulsive. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">For example, she recently said <a href=\"http:\/\/www.democracynow.org\/2016\/4\/13\/hear_hillary_clinton_defend_her_role\"><span class=\"s6\">\u201cThe Legislature\u2014or the national Legislature in Honduras and the national judiciary actually followed the law in removing President Zelaya\u201d<\/span><\/a>, but even her own U.S. Ambassador in Honduras, Hugo Llorens, right after the coup, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.globalresearch.ca\/hillary-clintons-six-foreign-policy-catastrophes\/5509543?print=1\"><span class=\"s6\">wrote to her the contrary<\/span><\/a> (and she ignored what he and all decent persons were saying \u2014 and her refusal to call it a \u201ccoup\u201d enabled U.S. government funds to be released to prop up the dictators, despite the universal condemnation of them by other countries):<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>The actions of June 28 can only be considered a coup d\u2019etat by the legislative branch, with the support of the judicial branch and the military, against the executive branch. It bears mentioning that, whereas the resolution adopted June 28 refers only to Zelaya, its effect was to remove the entire executive branch. Both of these actions clearly exceeded Congress\u2019s authority. \u2026 No matter what the merits of the case against Zelaya, his forced removal by the military was clearly illegal, and<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span><\/i>[puppett-leader Roberto]<i> Micheletti\u2019s ascendance as \u2018interim president\u2019 was totally illegitimate.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\"><span class=\"s1\">She still brazenly lies through her teeth.

More than 80% of murders go unpunished. Part of the problem, according to the InterIACHR, is that the military has taken on roles that should be left to a civilian police. They tend to work in conjunction with powerful interests, while human rights activists are criminalised.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\"><span class=\"s1\">Due to the widespread condemnation of the Honduran Government for the murder of Berta C\u00e1ceres, the Honduran Government is allegedly now trying to build a case against someone else within her own environmental organization to prosecute for it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\"><span class=\"s1\">Without the Obama Administration\u2019s support, the coup-regime wouldn\u2019t have lasted out the year. Hillary even tried to block the democratically elected President, Manuel Zelaya, from being returned to the country.
