  • “This sends a message all the way up to the top,” one of the US officials told CNN. “Seizing the foreign head of state’s plane is unheard-of for criminal matters. We’re sending a clear message here that no one is above the law, no one is above the reach of US sanctions.”

    • Yeah that'll teach a country already under crippling US sanctions who's leader is always being targeted for assassination anyway.

      • Also saying this while providing support to Israel for its genocidal campaign is just the epitomy of hypocrisy.

        Oh no, Maduro may be circumventing the terms of a largely unilateral sanction

        Netanyahu and friends bombed another school. Israel has a right to defend itself

    • The real message this sends is "You can't even trust US and their puppets with elementary diplomacy, they are rabid dogs"
