WSJ: "Coup Rocks Honduras"
How interesting. While the US was "trying" to contact the Honduran military, Honduran FM Patricia Rodas couldn't get a call back from the US Ambassador Llorens.

Excerpt:
"The efforts accelerated over the weekend, as Washington grew increasingly alarmed. "The players decided, in the end, not to listen to our message," said one U.S. official involved in the diplomacy. On Sunday, the U.S. embassy here tried repeatedly to contact the Honduran military directly, but was rebuffed. Washington called the removal of President Zelaya a coup and said it wouldn't recognize any other leader."
