I'm stumped. I have two AWS accounts, an s3 bucket in each. I need to copy
the content from one bucket to another.

   - Account 1 - alpha, has an IAM user who can read and write to the s3
   bucket in that account - alpha bucket
   - Account 2 - bravo, has an IAM role which can read and write to the s3
   bucket in that account - bravo bucket.
   - alpha user can read/write alpha bucket
   - alpha user can assume bravo role
   - Using bravo role, alpha user can read/write bravo bucket
   - Using bravo role, alpha user can no longer read from alpha bucket

What is going on and why is this so?

I'm clearly missing some salient detail, but stuffed if I can figure it out.
