Weird thing is they invaded because of these rockets that are deadly for Israelis. Yet, when the FAA forbids US airlines from coming into TLV, they say "naw, come on in, those rockets can't hurt you. We shoot them down with our Iron Dome, you aren't in any danger." So it's dangerous when used to justify killing 70% civilians but totally not dangerous when it comes to foreign airliners coming into TLV. The rest of the world has already used the term genocide. Sounds fitting.

In any case, I don't understand why any passenger would want to fly to TLV today. It isn't worth it, the US government has warned against travel there. Oh and Bloomberg's little stunt would actually be credible if it wasn't for the fact he outlaws 32oz fountain drinks. But apparently flying into a war zone is okay. And those citizens can carry guns but not here in NY.
