Right at this moment Mr. Andres Pavon, head of the Committee for the
Defense of Human Rights in Honduras, CODEH (‘Comité para la Defensa de los
Derechos Humanos en Honduras, CODEH) is denouncing before national and
international opinion the existence of a criminal military plan to dress
up professional soldiers as members of a false ‘armed wing’ of the
Resistance, whom next November 29 will carry on a military mass
assassination against members of the Democratic Civic Union (‘Unión Cívica
Democrática, or UCD, an extreme right-wing group that supports the Coup
d’Etat and the dictatorial regime, having been named ‘Electoral
Custodians’ for the upcoming elections), with the very specific goal of
provoking violent repulsion on a national level and loss of support on an
international level for the Resistance.

According to Mr. Pavon, military officers loyal to the Honduran people
have confidentially provided him with the information concerning the
diabolic plan, after pointing out to him that such an intention is
directed by dark forces inside the golpista camp that are in denial about
accepting any responsibility at all about the barbaric rupture of
constitutional order and the destruction of legal protections of Human
Rights in the nation.

This rehearsed mass assassination of supposed ‘regime supporters’ is
basically aimed at creating a climate of retribution from members of the
UCD and all the oligarchs who support the criminal regime against
individual members of the Resistance, in the hopes that the oligarchy may
proceed to expand the hiring of professional killers to assassinate
Hondurans loyal to the Resistance movement.

The final goal of this heinous mass crime would be to cry wolf upon the
fraudulent electoral process that the dictatorial regime plans to hold on
November 29, and declare it null and void in light of grotesque violence,
so that the criminal regime can hold fast to power in a full blown
military dictatorship in which the Resistance will be hunted and killed
one by one.

Mr. Pavon has been told that the Military Junta (the five generals who
sent the commandos to violently remove President Zelaya from power) is
feeling deeply nervous about what they perceive as two main problems:

1. Politicians have been ‘leaving them alone’ for weeks now, and do not
   seem interested in any effort at all to spare the general and his bullies
   from blame.
2. Most importantly, the general and his bullies have smelled (quite
   rightly) the inability of the new government that is to arise from the
   fraudulent electoral process to protect them fully from the consequences
   of their criminal actions on national and international levels. No
   government will in the end accept economic sanctions and diplomatic
   blackballing to protect five old farts from jail, and they damn well know
   it. So it is that Romeo Vasquez and Co. have calculated that the new
   president will not be able to protect them, even if he really wanted to,
   as he will be forced to use them as scapegoats before the International
   Criminal Court to calm the loud cries for justice that will surely arise
   as a popular demand at the beginning of next presidential term.

Mr. Pavon called out all governments and Human Right organizations in the
whole world to stay alert and proceed to firmly reject any criminal
attempts to provoke terrorist actions that may serve to turn the Honduran
conflict into a full blown civil war.
