HELP!
Radio Progreso was besieged by an army contingent the day of the bloodless coup. At gunpoint and without a warrant, the military broke into our facilities and forced us to silence our equipment.
On Friday, August 14, our radio dispatched two of its reporters to cover the demonstration that was organized resistance against the city of Choloma, between San Pedro Sula and Puerto Cortes on the north Atlantic Honduras. Progressive Radio covered the event when the marchers were savagely attacked by police contingents.
At noon, our reporter Gustavo Cardoza transmitting the news about the tear gas, the arrests, the beatings that police violated left and right demonstrators. Suddenly, Gustavo Cardoza said that a police officer pointing his weapon and immediately reported that other police officers came upon him. Our reporter tried to run, and told them he was a reporter for Radio Progreso. It was then that we heard their cries and blows our reporter was receiving.
The transmission of our reporter was abruptly suspended. The police kicked him, paid him back, stomach, put him to a vehicle, laid him face down and beat him along the way kicking gave the butt of the rifle while the worst abused words and insults.
Luckily, the bar association in resistance to the coup and the Association of Judges for Democracy acted promptly and diligently, and although some of them were jostled and insulted, ensured that the end of the day the police release to us reporter and other protesters captured and tortured.
We affirm to the world of our helplessness. We raise our voice, our cry to the human rights organizations the international community, because here all sectors that oppose the de facto regime are exposed to barbarism, while state agencies responsible for ensuring justice and human rights rather than protect, point your finger to exterminate us. People of the world, not leave us alone!

I can not stop it. Hiroshima and Nagasaki seem too real and too new. I can remember yet (although he was born), the day the Enola Gay, the B-29 Superfortress with the name of the pilot's mother, released Little Boy, an explosive 5-ton uranium on Hiroshima (6 August 1945).
Three days later (August 9, 1945), and if it was not obvious, Recupero another plane, with the funny name of Bock's Car (by its original pilot), launched Fat Man, which in English is fat man more complex by a bomb plutonium implosion on Nagasaki.
This I have not met in a history class is over, I remember hearing the track in a university classroom, in a matter of chemistry.
In Hiroshima, Little Boy killed nearly 80,000 people instantly, and seriously injured were an equal number. It is said that (for those fans of fiction) in this place was created a fireball that reached more than a million degrees Celsius.
Meanwhile, Fat Man exploded and wiped out 74,000 people in Nagasaki, with the force of 22,000 tons of TNT. Another 75,000 were seriously injured.
Shortly after the bombing, thousands killed by poison, radiation and other diseases caused by this attack. This persisted for months, and then for years.
when we do not know if to marches or acts "memorial" to this fact, remember all this or if you know it. 64 years later, Hiroshima and Nagasaki did not serve so many symbols of peace.
While most global trade is the arms, photographs, testimonies are staying on the shelf of libraries. Yes, this is also important.
terror of nuclear annihilation or terrorism seems to have disappeared. Even though the nine nuclear powers - the U.S., Russia, France, Britain, China, Israel, Pakistan, India and North Korea - have together more than 27,000 operational nuclear weapons between them, enough to destroy several planets
Little Boy was a 15-kiloton warhead. Most of the warheads in the U.S. arsenal current are 100 or 300 kilotons. Unthinkable, inescapable truth. You need to keep remembering, but also wary and demanding.
