What the capricious Noboa has done, is something so scandalous that it will be interesting to see who and how they will throw in the towel, surely Milei and Netanyahu. Even for the US it will be difficult to justify the unjustifiable, they will blame AMLO as a provocateur and Glas as a terrorist. Just as they invented the euphemism "unlawful combatants" to violate the UN Charter on the treatment of prisoners, just as they erroneously interpreted Article 25 of the UN Charter to say that the Security Council's demand for a ceasefire in Gaza is "not binding", so perhaps now they will say that the Vienna Convention does not apply in this case.

It is the "rules-based world", the rules of the empire, which changes them at whim and convenience, but it is the world that is dying, dysfunctional, and that step by step will be replaced by a fairer and more rational one.

The US will condemn the act, but reward them on the side. The usual "strategic ambiguity".
