The Israeli government has recently claimed that it can “legislate anywhere in the world”, that it is “entitled to violate the sovereignty of foreign countries”, and that “is allowed to ignore the directives of international law in any field it desires”. This was written in an official response letter to the Supreme Court last month.
On the face of it, these are audacious claims. Is it really that bad? I would say that it’s even worse. The background to these statements is a new law from last year, which legalizes outright theft of Palestinian land.

Actually, this is TOTAL bullshit. No earthly power has the right to do anything like that.
Now, if and when Messiah comes and the Shekinah returns to the rebuilt temple they may be able to make such an argument, but only because at that point Israel would be an ACTUAL theocracy.
Until then, they're bound by the same laws as the rest of us.
