So Soon We Forget

Honduras had its membership in the OAS restored after the coup:

Honduras was readmitted to the Organization of American States on Wednesday, repairing ties with the group of regional democracies two years after President Manuel Zelaya was toppled in widely condemned coup.

The body voted 32 to one at a special OAS meeting with Ecuador the only country to oppose the move.

Well, the result is good. Im glad Honduras is back in the good graces of the OAS. But I would like to quibble with one part: Zelaya was not the victim of the coup--he was the instigator of the attempted coup.
