You know, this wasn’t always the state of things. This is a choice we’ve made.

Frankly, temporary transit through a nation’s airspace (while onboard a commercial jet that you don’t control) shouldn’t subject you to their legal jurisdiction.

Shall we revoke the concept of diplomatic immunity next? Close the embassies?

We seem to be unlearning all the hard lessons of the past. It’s not going to end well.
