Clearly not getting the concepts of jurisdiction and sovereignty, while simultaneously vastly overestimating their own significance, the Belgians have decided that they can put any Israeli officer on trial for "war crimes" whenever they feel like it. Israel has recalled its Belgian ambassador.

I don't have the words to react to this. It is as outrageous as it is unprecedented. For their sake, I hope the Belgians never try to enforce this decision. The Israelis have rescued their people from far more formidable (though equally contemptible) enemies.
