Netanyahu's address to the UN was reportedly a diversion:
Benjamin Netanyahu left Israel for New York to “trick” Hezbollah’s leader into thinking he was safe, a senior Israeli official told The Telegraph. Mr Netanyahu’s address to the UN was part of a “diversionary plan” intended to make Hassan Nasrallah believe Israel would not take drastic action with the prime minister out of the country...Mr Nasrallah was believed to be watching Mr Netanyahu’s speech “and was then attacked by Israeli Air Force planes”, the official said.
The past two weeks of operations against Hezbollah have been absolutely crazy.
A lot of people are calling the UN ineffective again so I'm just going to repeat: the UN is not a government or policeforce or even a courthouse. The UN is a neutral place where nations can talk to eachother on equal(ish) footing. The UN doesn't have laws it's organisation can only advise. If the UN says "Israel stop killing people" Israel is fully allowed to ignore that, there are no binding treaties that say a nation has to do what the UN says.
