A coup is the sudden, illegal removal of a legitimate government by a
small group. President Zelaya was removed with the unanimous support
of Hondurass Supreme Court, and strong congressional backing Matthew
Crupi not by a small group. He was no longer part of the
government, having lost his right to rule by using intimidation and
aid from Venezuelas dictator to push an unconstitutional referendum.
Mr. Zelayas removal, far from being illegal, was consistent with
Articles 239 and 272 of his countrys constitution.
When the English Parliament kicked out King James II in 1688, using an
army, it was called a Glorious Revolution. So why is it called a
coup when Honduras does something similar?
