Fuck this. Where is this meme coming from? The US does not do this. The US didn't do this to Snowden either. What notably happened here is not that Belarus arrested a prominent journalist[1] opposing the ruling regime. Tin pot regimes do that every week.
What happened was that Belarus used its air defense apparatus and a faked "bomb threat" to force down a foreign aircraft[2] to which it had granted airspace transit privileges under false pretenses. That's an act of war, sorry.
[1] Something that the US also does not do.
[2] Irish. Sadly, not a NATO member, which may be why this was tried.
