    Ever hear the saying possession is 9/10 of the law? It doesn’t matter who’s the legal owner of the airspace when your primary concern is preventing a major diplomatic incident.

      Ah yes. The old finders keepers clause. Definitely something we should be applying to rules on national airspace.

        I’m not talking about the rules you walnut. I’m talking about avoiding a crisis.

      Well France is possessing the fuck out of Gaza’s air space right now, and haven’t been shot down by the IDF. So by your logic I think it’s clear who owns Gaza’s air space.

        “By my logic”? You sound like someone who’s putting a lot of effort into misunderstand everything I say because want to be right about something I’m not even talking about.
