International law matters here
Only EXTREMELY selectively
Because you don't think international law matters when your side breaks multiple international treaties
You don't think international law matters when your side is committing genocide.
You only think it matters when the guys who stole Hillary's election (they didn't) are the bad guys on CNN
It only matters when someone you call an enemy reacts to all of your international law breaking
You don't give a shit about international law. It's just convenient ammo to argue for what you want sometimes.
