...only what it says is not true

User Posted Link is one of really rather a lot of examples of it not being true. This lady was travelling from Costa Rica - not one of the named countries - but was not allowed to transit at a US airport (not even enter the country) because of her Iranian passport. There are all kinds of stories like hers all over the place.
