Is it an act of war to search a diplomatic pouch or not? And isn't the entirety of the plane, essentially a diplomatic pouch?

- tantalor 13y agoIs it an act of war to search a diplomatic pouch or not? It might be viewed as aggressive or politically scandalous, but I don't think it has caused war in the past. And isn't the entirety of the plane, essentially a diplomatic pouch? You have to clearly mark the container as a diplomatic bag, and even then I doubt a plane would qualify. It has to be a sealed container, like a shipping crate. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplomatic_bag http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplomatic_bag
