We all know that Israel and most of the Arab countries nearby are not even remotely friendly. Suppose that an Israeli commercial plane (El Al, for example) had engine trouble and had to make an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia or Bahrain or Dubai or possibly Iran? What would that country - who doesn't acknowledge that Israel exists - do with 300 passengers and the plane?
Would the country where the emergency landing was made be hospitable? Would they allow the plane to be fixed and take off again? Would they massacre all the passengers and blow up the plane?
What’s the legal responsibility of the country where the plane landed unintentionally? And given the decades of animosity, would those countries even follow their legal responsibilities?
