Changing the face of the same coin: Lobo dumps Military Chief Involved in Coup and replaces him with another high military officer charged by the authorities of the same

While the mass media is happily reporting that Lobo fired the military leaders responsible for leading the coup against then-president Manuel Zelaya last June, it is not reporting that 


General Carlos Cuéllar was one of the Generals charged by the Honduran Public Prosecutor with exiling President Manuel Zelaya Rosales on June 28, so its hard to see how moving from one golpista General to another is actually a response to international pressure to not have anyone associated with the coup as part of the Lobo Sosa government, but maybe its the degree to which Romeo Vasquez Velasquez is linked to the coup that necessitated his removal. In any case, this is not a radical change

General Vázquez Velázquez,  Venancio Cervantes Suazo (subjefe del Estado Mayor), Carlos Antonio Cuéllar Castillo (inspector general de las FF.AA.), Luis Javier Prince Suazo (jefe de la Fuerza Aérea), Miguel Ángel García Padgett (jefe del Ejército), y Juan Pablo Rodríguez Rodríguez (jefe de la Fuerza Naval), were prosecuted  by the authorities and later given amnesty to for crimes like abuse of authority and expatriation harming the State of Honduras. 


What's more, the same military junta that executed the coup is now intact with the exception of Vásquez Velázquez absence:


Junta 
The Junta of Comandantes is integrated by six officers that are currently the Chief   Carlos Antonio Cuéllar Castillo; el subjefe del Estado Mayor, general de división Venancio Cervantes; el comandante de la Fuerza Aérea, general Javier Prince; el comandante del Ejército, general Miguel Angel García Padgett; el jefe de la Fuerza Naval, capitán de navío Juan Pablo Rodríguez y el Inspector General de las Fuerzas Armadas, cargo que está vacante porque hasta ayer lo ocupaba el hoy jefe del Estado Mayor.

ALL of these Military Chiefs are the SAME ones accused of having executed the coup and the same chiefs during the 28th coup and after. ALL OF THEM. The military junta now is the exact same one who executed the coup and media is reporting that Lobo "dismissed them all involved in the coup". 


In fact, they were the only eligible ones according to reports days before Cuellar Castillo was chosen Chief:

There is no doubt that international media does all it can to wash the face of the coup and report false information, this is just one evidence of the many lies reported by them, something  we Hondurans have witnessed since the events of June 28 th started to take place.


Also, it was obviously a crime  when Zelaya destituted Vásquez Velásquez before the coup, but it was UNDOUBTEDLY LEGAL when Lobo did the same. Crimes are not crimes if the right people do it.
