    My only doubt was to whether they’d shoot them down outright (in international waters btw) or arrest them.
    It seems as though the rich white swede is a worthy victim, so they chose the latter. Now they have hostages for closed-door negotiations. Hooray.

    Let’s see what will The World™ do. Cynical be is betting on “not much beyond stern words”.

      Remember media bubbles are different in different countries.

      The nordic media are pretty intensely hostile to Israel already and have been for years.

      Harming a famous swede on a clear peaceful mission would go nuclear.

        I wouldn’t use “nuclear” in this context and Sweden’s been turning right as of late. We’ll see.
