“My SALUTE to INDIAN PILOT Captain Smit Machchhar for his EXTRAORDINARY BRAVERY. He SAVED the lives of 174 people. He is a TRUE HERO.” — Israeli PM Netanyahu  

Despite being STABBED & critically INJURED inside the cockpit by his Omani MUSLIM CO-PILOT, Captain Smit Machchhar FOUGHT BACK, UNLOCKED the door to ALLOW passengers to intervene, and AVERTED a catastrophic mid-air disaster.
