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.
So continues the collapse of the modern-day League of Nations
I mean I figured it was all a bunch of fucking posturing, but it’s nice to have confirmation I guess?
So all three countries failed to kill 2025 Hitler when they had the chance
So now the question is, what accountability and consequences are we going to apply to the Greek, Italian, and French officials who failed to do their goddamn jobs and aided and abetted a war criminal?
A fierce, strong-worded letter, of course
I, for one, will be crushing a grape tonight, such is my outrage.
Just the one? Make it a bushel so we can make it a party
Slap in the wrist
The champions of human rights and international law \s
For the love of Atlas, stop letting dictators get away with everything
It would have been awesome if someone shot his ass out of the sky
No one is going to arrest him while he’s still PM
There are a lot of countries that absolutely would arrest him. Unfortunately close to none of them are the ones touting international human rights.
Here are a couple of his past flight paths:
He avoided Spain and took this detour instead.
This is a sad reality. I don’t understand why you’re getting down-voted for a realistic take. We live in a post-conscience world.
An legal obligation is a legal obligation we don’t give a damn about excuses
A legal obligation without enforcement isn’t really a legal obligation. See the current state of affairs in the US
We live in a post-conscience world
I disagree. The only thing that changed is that (some) people stop pretending that exists some kind international law, and any and all treaties signed by all countries are subject to political and/or economical pressures. Enforcement of said treaties work the same way.
Fascinating to see all the colonial and post colonial grandstanding of the West culminate into this.
I blame Trump for putting them in an impossible situation
Read a damn history book… all these countries were on the HITLER side of the war during WWII!
Smart people NEVER FORGET! They are all COWARDS and will always be!! Read… history!
They are selfish and in it for themselves! They don’t give a damn about the world… hence, history repeating itself again!
Did you know the Greeks have a holiday commemorating the day they told fascist Italy to go fuck off?
NEVER FROGET!
I love that the motto on the emblem is just, “No”
You know, I have always loved Greece and I never needed more reasons, but bathe me in olive oil and fetch me some toum
There’s a Greek expression I love: “Garlic and Onions, Left to Right”
I’m not entirely sure what it means, but I feel it in my bones.
Read a damn history book.
This comment is satire, right?
It was until people and took it seriously… I wish people could hear sarcasm through media! Jezzzz! :/
Like Greece and Italy would ever be on the same side of a war
Huh, I am curious to see how diplomatic/absolute immunity (just using the local jargon not colloquial terms) and that treaty mesh
Not. Which is why Netanyahu avoided several countries like Spain, which would have provided him a more direct flight to the US.
The countries listed were Netanyahu’s detour route where Israel exerts enough control to surpass their legal system.
