The plane carrying Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Florida for talks with U.S. President Donald Trump passed through the airspace of three countries that are parties to the International Criminal Court, despite an active ICC arrest warrant against the Israeli leader.
Flight tracking data from FlightRadar24 showed Netanyahu’s aircraft, known as “Wings of Zion,” crossed the airspace of Greece, Italy and France before reaching the Atlantic Ocean.
All three countries are signatories to the Rome Statute, which obliges member states to cooperate with ICC arrest warrants.
That’s because Europe is gutless and doesn’t want to upset Trump.
Not ALL of Europe, just the vast majority of it.
It would be a REAL shame if someone tampered with the return flight path to make it pass through Ireland and/or Spain…
we can’t find a drone to fly into his jet?
While I’d like it, it would make him a matter and justify them take out all of Palestine/Palestinians. We knew countries like Greece would do such, they signed agreements with Israel because they know Israel seems to get backing no matter what. And the fighters they bought are F-35s. Trump supports N, they both will support him.
What were they supposed to do? Scramble jets and intercept/ force a landing?
Surely shooting them down if they haven’t faced a trial can’t be protocol, as a U.S. citizen that would be like blowing up boats and claiming they have drugs on them and not letting the people stand trial
You intercept any unauthorised aircraft flying over your airspace using a fighter jet, force them to land. If they don’t land, you can shoot them legally because they’re in your airspace.
That’s like how America can legally shoot a Chinese balloon flying in their airspace.
Yeah I agree they should have, but clearly they didn’t.
Librerian@lemmy.zipI is anti due process. It’s not doxing. It’s known fact, you are known here They believe killing people without due process is fine. So let’s talk facts. They want to say killing people and denying them rights is fine.
Sure kill Putin, would be better, but this is fact; remember your words are public
Edit, also if you request I removed this I will
Edit: you know I’m going to add. Russia, China And North Korea are all absolutely shit holes. Not one of them supports their people. And if you think otherwise, you have you head up you ass

YES!

Your comparison is bullshit and you should feel bad. The essential difference is that the US Navy isn’t even trying to give the falsely-accused fisherman a chance to surrender and stand trial.
I absolutely unequivocally don’t feel bad. It’s due process, and if you wave that right then you should be in prison for anything anytime period. You should feel like a niave fool.
And yes, they should have demanded they land.
The answer is: Be a black guy in the states
ignoring an arrest warrant and have the cops know when and where you’ll be.
