Bush chaos: Lufthansa may sue

I wonder why they couldn't use a military airport - more security and less disruption. Especially since Bush visited Schroeder near the US military base as well as visiting the military base. It would have been the logical thing to do. Perhaps protocol would prevent Schroeder from rolling out a red carpet and greeting him inside a US airbase. But to me, it still seems like SChroeder didn't try to minimize the inconveniences Bush's visit would cause. It wasn't only Frankfurt Airport that was frozen, it was also main autobahns between Frankfurt and the small town where they met which were close on both the inbound and outbound commutes. The pretty well made sure that while all courtesies were being extended to Bush, Schroeder knew that the inconveniences to the public would ensure the public remains very much against the war criminal and the media might focus more on the inconveniences than on the obligatory handshake with the war criminal and fake smiles. |
