More finger wagging or asking them to investigate themselves

Someone might attempt to pass a resolution at the UN, and the US will veto it.

An even stronger-worded letter than the last dozen times.

Wait til they find out what's happening in Palestine.

I'm pretty sure Israel really doesn't care.

The world itself doesn’t care, everyone involved in this conflict has violated international law lmao

Isn't espionage generally a violation of international law? Like extra-judicial killing violates the sovereignty of the host nation? I guess I have been thinking this whole time that sort of stuff was 1,000% illegal, but everyone operated on a "don't get caught" understanding.

No, espionage is not a violation of international law, but most (all?) nations make it a crime within their own territory.

What can they do about it? Nuke Israel?
