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.
The International Colonial Court has no clothes.
Should be shot down if he doesn’t agree to land.
Completely expected unfortunately.
western leaders have absolute immunity. they can kill children in plain view and media will still find justification for that.
Further proof this was only ever performative
Sadly I don’t see what they could have done. I don’t think international law would have allowed them to intercept the plane even if they had wanted to. It would have been a very interesting situation tho if the plane had a problem and would have been forced to make an emergency landing in one of the three countries.
This is key. And it shows all along the rules are meant for peasants like us.
Not for the ruling class.
That’s true. What are they supposed to do, shoot them down? Scramble some jets to harass on their way through? Put on the flashers and get the pilot to pull over?
Put on the flashers and get the pilot to pull over?
This is a very funny mental image and I wish they had
What should they do? edit: Genuine question
Use their fighter jets to intercept the plane and force it to land. Then arrest Netanyahu and put him on trial in The Hague. Or even easier don’t grant it permission into their airspace.
Thanks!

Yeah, it’s not like they’re ISRAEL or the US!
That aside, though, they could have arrested him without killing anyone relatively easily by just enforcing their airspace to make the “Wings of Zion” (🤮) land.
No one on-board the Wings of Zion is innocent.
If their pilot is willing to kill the entire plane to not let one genocidal war criminal be arrested on land, that’s a pilot who should also be rotting in the Hague.
Yikes guys, Operation Valkyrie seems kinda problematic, that exploding briefcase killed several Nazi officers who just happened to be in the same room as Hitler.
