So this is a public bragging about illegally putting a gun in a foreign country and assassinating a person, all the while being comfortably sure that no national or international pushback will come. Quite disturbing to read.

How bizarre for you to sidestep the issue and go after issues with the laws of Iran! In what country is it legal to assassinate a scientist?
He's a nuclear scientist. Working on a nuclear bomb. For Iran. Wich is run by radical extremists. He's essentially a terrorist. Albeit one who goes around in a white lab coat as opposed to a machine gun and who has never harmed a fly but is more dangerous than the entire taliban put together.

#103So what is Israel likely to do when Iran has a working nuke? I ask as a half jew. These questions are intensely interesting to me. Probably "no one knows" is a decent answer, but I can't help but wonder what sort of plans are already in place. EDIT: I immediately regret asking about politics. Never mind. Hopefully things will work out.
I imagine they will continue to do whatever they think serves their geopolitical position best. Nukes would give iran a significant power boost and bargaining chip, but it wouldn't magically make them rulers of the world. Iran's geopolitical enemies would still try to contain them, iran would still try and not be contained. Similar to what happened when the soviets got nukes, but on a much smaller regional scale.

It's more disturbing to read complaints about a strike against a brigadier general, where two countries are at war with each other, a mere few days after we learnt the US droned 10 civilians in Kabul as a 'retaliation' for an IS strike. We at HN should look inwards on this one.

Isn't that fine? Let's get a bunch of robot armies in one place like we used to do in the ancient days and let them duke it out. Whoever wins wins. Army jobs getting automated is one thing I could get behind. Just keep the drones out of the civilian areas.
That's exactly what Gatling thought of machine guns. They were supposed to automate the military jobs which was supposed to limit casualties and also make humanity reconsider going to war.

There is no world court or legal structure. The word "illegal" has no meaning in international affairs.

This is a leak like hundred of other leaks. But, it seems like you are trying to push a certain agenda and paint the info in a certain way. Here's another way to frame the same info: At least someone tries to prevent a war and prevent bad actors from obtaining nuclear weapons.
> Here's another way to frame the same info: At least someone tries to prevent a war and prevent bad actors from obtaining nuclear weapons. We used to have inspectors to do such a thing. Now we're just left with an incredibly convenient Schrodingers nuke to keep those not yet fatigued in a constant state of fear.
First, we used not to blaim anyone without a due process....before you take a stand and blaime Israel, instead maybe you should argue to send inspectors to examine if the article is true, maybe it is not Israel or this never happened, did you follow a due process before publically assigning guilt?
Second, who are "we", in your srnyense? The West, China? Iran, Hizbollah, Americans? UN?
I recall no inspectors during Cuban crisis, hmm... why threaten world with nuclear war, instead there could be annual inspections!

This action was performed in a specific country - Iran. I am sure it was illegal there. Isn't that enough?

The only local enemies capable of containing Iran is Israel. Even the Saudis are afraid of Iran. Hence the Abraham Accords and a peace treaty between Israel and Saudi Arabia is imminent. And Israel isn't intimidating every single one of its neighbours and trying to control them and starting proxy wars with them. And committing acts of terror against random Iranians all over the world. So Israel have the moral upper g…
