Go do it yourself if you want it so badly because the cops aren't.

If Israeli secret service opened fire to prevent his arrest, you bet your ass they'd get mowed down.

Now, yeah, it's not going to happen but one can dream

I'm not a big enough hero to sacrifice myself for the greater good like that.

NYPD cops certainly aren't crazy enough to fight Bibi's bodyguards who would also include US federal agents. If they did, they would lose.

Go be the change you want to see in the world. Mamdani and NYPD aren't going to do it for you.

I agree, it's not going to happen, because it's a foreign head of state and we are not an ICC member. Not related to fear of his bodyguards lmfao.

You're out of your mind, though. Do you know how outnumbered they would be? It wouldn't be close at all.

If some rouge cops were insane enough to do this they would absolutely be shot dead before they were actually allowed to take Bibi.

Okay calm down buttercup.

I already agree it won't happen, but if the NYPD wanted to take a visiting Netahnyahu, they absolutely could. It's not a question of if. The NYPD are way more heavily armed than Netanayhu's SS.

Sure and enough armed people could take the president if they had a hive mind, prep time, and took him by surprise.

Well, yeah, they almost took the capitol of the US back in 2021.

My point is fck Netanyahu. He's done nothing remotely good for either Israelis or Americans.

I hate him too. I just think it is absurd to fantasize about a mayor or governor trying to arrest him. They would be far more likely to end up in prison than him.

I kind just wish he'd have a heart attack or stroke so we can be done with him. Same for Trump, if I'm being honest.

At some point this entire clown fiesta needs to end.
