A U.S. flag went up at a temporary consular station set up in the first few days on the airport tarmac, according to Charles Luoma-Overstreet, a State Department spokesman in Haiti.

"Apparently, the prime minister (Jean-Max Bellerive) saw this" and thought it appeared as if the United States were taking over the airport, Luoma-Overstreet said.

seems everyone wants to take verbal shots at Americans while they are holding their hands out for aid. if they really want to make a statement then they should stand the fuck up and say no thanks to all the money and aid. guess that won't be happening though. never seem to see any of the other nations refuse the money.
