Honduran "Coup d'état?"

[Athos]

A few days ago, President Zelaya was ousted by the Army for "violating the Constitution of Honduras." President Zelaya wanted to hold a referendum to change the Constitution to allow him to run for another term. It was taken to the Supreme Court of Honduras and they ruled that the action violated the Constitution. Ergo, the Army exiled President Zelaya to Costa Rica. Both the U.S and the U.N. support Zelaya and (at least with the UN) said they would not recognize Roberto Micheletti (who was sworn in as the new Pres). Also, the people of Honduras have been protesting in support of Micheletti. Also, reports indicate they do not want Zelaya to return.

Thoughts?

Update: The Organization of American States (OAS) declared that Honduras has "three days to restore deposed President Manuel Zelaya to power, the Organization of American States said Wednesday, before Honduras risks being suspended from the group."
Update: Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala impose 48 hour trade embargo on Honduras.

I am unsure if popular support for Zelaya exists. The report on youtube left that vague. Socially I understand a military Coup would be (at the very least) frustrating to the ordinary person. Is their any evidence of support for Micheletti? While I agree ever effort should be made to restore some sort of confidence back into their constitution, is it really what the people of Honduras desire?

I am left with not enough information to judge that, at this time.

From an article I read from a newspaper in Honduras, the people do not want Zelaya back. An article on Wikipedia reports that "A group of around 150 people that supported Zelaya gathered outside the building in protest, throwing stones at soldiers and shouting "traitors, traitors." In Honduras's constitution, they have no process for removing a President.
