BREAKING NEWS: Plane of Bolivian President Evo Morales forced to land in Vienna after denied entry into Spain/Portugal

The thing is this is already out, from all that has been shown he has not complied with foreign governments to divulge Intel.

To many it looks like what Snowden said last is true, they are acting fearful, like cornered animals over surveillance information. This does not look good for the government at all, it reinforces his last statement.

Not quite. Diplomatic protocol requires that Morales be given all necessary assistance to enable him to continue on his way. Diplomatic immunity is one protocol...assistance is another...and so forth.

I fed this story to Drudge, minutes later, first column red text. Here it is in actual English.

I was just contemplating the exact same thing

or CARACAS

Then they let Morales and anyone else with diplomatic status off the plane first.

RT @AdrianBono: Ecuador has requested an extraordinary UNASUR session to discuss the incident involving Evo Morales' plane.

Not surprising.

Somehow the OBummer group got to these countries. Even Equador changed it's mind after Joe "BS" Biden called.

Dirty deals done dirt cheap!!!!!

It doesn't matter now anyway, all the information Snowden still has was given to dozens of other people to include Julian Assange. He could be deported, tried, jailed, and executed and the information will still be made public.

The damage has been done, now the entire world despises this country.

SNOWDEN NOT IN VIENNA, AUSTRIAN FOREIGN OFFICE SAYS -- DPA

france and portugal will pay dearly for this. what were they thinking? snowden has a lot more juicy stories for us. keep em coming edward.

Agreed... and it goes to what others have said, that it is not about Snowden anymore, it is about stopping future leaks. Implying that there is a lot more damaging information that what the rather low level Snowden was able to obtain.

This is all spy-games until we get something tangible -- such as some documentation on a Supreme Court Justice that implies, or explicitly states, that they were blackmailed.

THIS

Uh-oh.

Associated Press has published extracts from a statement issued by the Bolivian defence minister, Ruben Saavedra, who was also on the redirected plane.

It says the plane was allowed to land in Spain for refueling before flying on to Austria.

It describes the rerouting as a "hostile act" by the US goverment:


"This is a hostile act by the United States State Department which has used various European governments"

CNN has interviewed the Bolivian defence minister, Ruben Saavedra, who has expressed outrage at the decision to reroute the president's plane. He said the US government was behind the rumours that Snowden was on board.

"This is a lie, a falsehood," he said. "It was generated by the US government."

He added:

"It is an outrage. It is an abuse. It is a violation of the conventions and agreements of international air transportation"

No. The primary protocol is that the diplomat, being on his territory, cannot be forced to vacate it. Instead he must be given all the assistance he requires and requests.

Having said that, Bush has made such a mockery of international law by opening up Guantanamo, it is only fair to say that much of it, including the rules on diplomacy are likely to be degraded over the coming decades.

If that were to occur, say hello to the law of the jungle, both internationally and at home.

This is huge. The international system of cooperation is getting closer to breaking down.

Yup.

This is huge...I fully believe the west just showed its collective ass to the world. Curious to see how they sweep the fallout under the rug, might take some serious smoke and mirrors.

How do you pronounce that guy's surname???

Probably a test run by Putin or snowden to see what would happen if word leaked out he was on an outbound plane

The world is starting to see and understand the USA. Do as I say not as I do.

Whoa!!! Gives me goose-bumps!!!! Go,Edward!!!

Somebody's about to get a kick-in-the-ass wake-up call. And I don't mean you.


Where will YOU be?

Act Of WAR.
Bolivia should expel ALL Americans.
