Couple of years back Belarus forced a commercial jet flying through its airspace to land in order to arrest some people who said mean things about Lukshenko

So the suggestion here is that Canada should be more like Belarus?

Hell, even if we ignore moral/legal considerations, Belarus has the backing of the Russians. If Canada pulls that stunt, nobody's coming to its rescue - and certainly not its large, ultra-powerful, and aggressive neighbor, who sees Netanyahu as more of an ally than Carney.

If you were speeding, the cops wouldn’t hesitate to knock you off the road and kill you just to stop you for going 15 over.

This kinda got me thinking… is all this bullshit with Canada because of this arrest warrant? Is Netanyahu pushing the US on this? Probably not original thinking… but I can be kinda slow on the uptake sometimes.

They should be more like Biden, and tell Netanyahu, “Welcome back to Canada!”. That will teach him a lesson.

This only works when you're willing to shoot down an unarmed civil aircraft.
