Father Tomayo is much loved in Honduras for his leadership of non violent struggle for environmental justice. In particular his work to save Honduran Forests. In 2003 he received the Honduras National Human Rights Award. He now has been forced to leave Honduras and is in El Salvador.
Pressure is increasing on Secretary Of State Hillary Clinton to condemn the upcoming elections being conducted by the coup leaders. All candidates who oppose the current regime are refusing to be a part of the elections which they see as a sham. The coup announced that there will be military soldiers at all polling sites.

So after refusing to unequivocally condemn the coup, and lending it unwarranted legitimacy though an "accord" between the "two sides," now Clinton is complaining that the putchists aren't playing fair? Either the people at State are monumentally stupid (unlikely) or they're looking for a way to support the coup without supporting the coup.
