By allowing the corrupt jackass Zelaya to hunker down at their embassy, the Brazilians have stepped on a mouse who will roar like a lion.
Apart from the huge discrepancy in size and power, which militates against bullying Honduras, the flexing of Brazilian muscle against a tiny nation which is doing its best to adopt Anglo Victorian Democratic Virtues and Values will hurt Brazil's status and expose Lula for the disguised Chavista he is.
No Anglo/British/Scottish/American experience in the proper use of power. That takes time, wisdom, etc., all of which are in short supply in Brazil.
Now what?
The moronic Zelaya, who now insanely complains that the dastardly Joos are irradiating him, will now become a more or less permanent fixture at the Embassy, subject to being immediately arrested and thrown in the calaboose the minute he steps outside.
All I can say is this: The Brazilians best count the Embassy silverware before Zelaya gets his hands on it. He is gloriously, magnificently and epically corrupt.
So, how long does he stay there before the Brazilians get sick of the crowds, noise, etc.? And what happens when the Hondurans declare all the Brazilians png and decide to break diplomatic relations, giving them 36 hours to abandon the Embassy? That's coming.
Ha, I tell you, tiny Honduras is going to terribly embarrass Brazil.
Why Brazil decided to pick this fight is beyond me. The Honduras' anti-Zelaya position is a very sympathetic one. |
