I figure we'd better set the record straight right away, or else the Fox Effect will kick in (it already has, I'm sure) and we'll see Google echoing Ted Cruz' lies throughout the Internet. Lie #1: "The FAA singled out Israel but didn’t ban travel to Pakistan, Yemen or Ukraine, where a commercial airline was just shot down." From the State Department's Travel Warning page, which any fool can find with a few keystrokes and The Google: Pakistan: Alert February 5, 2014 Yemen: Warning July 21, 2014 updates warning from January, 2014 Ukraine: Warning June 5, 2014 There's a whole passel of warnings and alerts on that page. Turning to the FAA, now.
