Two Vienna convention violations in as many weeks. I can’t help but think the Zionists doing it first helped them think they could get away with it since by comparison it’s a mere raid.

The rules based order is breaking down at an impressive pace.

There is definitely some kind of plan to divide latin american, what Milei and Nobua are doing is not mere incompetence.

Ecuador, in the midst of a security crisis, decides to focus on arresting an irrelevant ex-opposition member and break international law in the process. This is no mere idiocy, it is deliberate.

Former vice president of Ecuador, Jorge Glas was arrested. It’s part of a series of political persecutions by the vendepatrias that have run this country since Lenin Moreno betrayed his party, country and voters. It’s late and I don’t want to write an in depth piece on Ecuadorian politics. It doesn’t even matter because even people who don’t like Glas can recognize that this is just an absolutely insane action, a violation of the Vienna Convention and something which has few precedents.

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.
