Fury over “state piracy” as West weighs action against #Belarus
Was anyone arrested on the Morales flight? 🤔
Let's be clear, I do not condone the action, especially as a former commercial pilot myself.
It's the hypocrisy of the reactions that gets in my tits though.
So what's a non-hypocritical reaction to what happened in Minsk?
1) "doesn't matter because in 2013 another country did something remotely similar"
2) "it was bad, but what about 2013"
3) other options? 🤔
@kravietz
Do I really have to spell it out? Not sure if you're taking the piss here.
Once you've cast your stone, there is no non-hypocritical reaction (other than “ah you've got us there lad” which obviously nobody is going to say in public). That is the whole point I'm making.
I didn't down Evo Morales plane. Can I say what Lukashenka did was wrong? 🤔
