I also find it ironic that JetBlue is PRO-ME3. An ALPA carrier with an anti-ALPA agenda 🤔 At any rate this is a good read to show what we are fighting against within this country. Maybe AA/UA/DL need to get together and put together some patriotic campaign that goes direct to the consumer. I don't see how they (we) win this battle.
There's a reason that FedEx is supportive of the ME3 position. It's Annex 1, Section 1.
It's the part that gives them freedom to operate from the UAE, or Qatar essentially without restrictions. Unlike passenger carriers, cargo carriers can go in and out at multiple times before returning home to the US. The fear of losing that, is what is driving FedEx's opposition to United, American, and Delta.
