Wow, what a dishonest analysis. Zelaya was forcibly _exiled_ from office (edit: and the country altogether) for trying to hold a non-binding referendum aimed at a first step towards extending his term in office. I see no reason why he shouldn't have been taken to court for defying his Supreme Court, but this was a coup. - Andrew C
