I'd really like to know the reasoning of France, Spain and Portugal. There isn't an international warrant for Snowden out there, so on what grounds would they restrict their airspace? Spain wanted to search the plane first? What about diplomatic immunity?
It really shows that US considers every other country, especially the developing ones, to be second class citizens. US would probably consider it an act of war if someone tried to ground Air Force One mid-flight.
