Action Alert comes to you from our partners at the <a href="http://quixote.org/">Quixote

Embassy as soon as possible. They will try to deny that the U.S. has anything
to do with it so take this opportunity to remind them that it is the murderous regime
of Pepe Lobo would never have been possible without the support of the U.S. and
that the U.S. continues to train the Honduran military at the School of the Americas.

Carlos H. Reyes, leader of the Honduran Resistance Movement and former
Independent Presidential candidate, received a death threat on his cell
phone. He was able verify that the call came from a land telephone in <st1:City

number was 226-9965. <O:P></O:P></span><o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

been an outspoken voice for justice in <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place

he had been on the radio denouncing the role of the <st1:country-region w:st="on">United

w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Honduras</st1:place></st1:country-region>.
