    The upholding of international law always depended on the existence of a n international rules based order with some sort of enforcement authority, which generally boiled down to the potential use of force by the USA and/or ‘coalition’ forces when the USA asked other western powers to help make it seem like there was a consensus to the action.

    The international experts saying they want to see the war stopped, are not prepared to risk themselves to stop that war. Nor are any other countries in the world, because the USA is so disproportionately militaristic.

    Hell, Spain raised concerns, and the Diapered Dictator Leader of the American people, declared all trade cut.

    The US, internally even, is being subjected to the same stuff. Minnesota is basically being “made an example of” via brutal federal actions, and all the other blue states are stayin pretty quiet / aren’t stoppin it. Israel/USA stuff in Iran is basically the same playbook on an international stage.
