134. If a conspiracy theory consists of saying 'we don't know all the facts'
I will certainly keep doing it until we get the facts. What we do know is that for some reason, other countries are being prevented from getting into Haiti since the U.S. arrived and so far, at least one of them has filed a complaint against the U.S. for using the supposedly limited airspace to evacuate Americans.

If what they are doing is standard procedure, then no one would be complaining, would they? This is called a 'deduction' based on the facts we do know. So, at this point, with the facts we do have, the only logical deduction is that what is happening is not standard procedure.

You, also based only on the facts we do have, have come up with your own deduction, or conspiracy theory if you like.

The bottom line is that the U.S. has pushed everyone else out of the way and taken control of the airport. Before that people seemed to be getting into the country without any problems. Countries seemed to be cooperating with each other.

If let's say, France or any other country had taken over the airport and stopped American aid from getting in, Americans would be screaming about it. And rightly so. Do you think we are somehow superior to other nations? Because that is how you are coming across. As if we rule the world and therefore do not have to cooperate with other countries. I know that's how it was under Bush, but we no longer have him as an excuse for behaving like this.
