The problem here is the singular collective "law".

Alone, yes, it's no paradox. That did need adressing.

However, if we are to disregard only some laws, we have some criteria by judging what laws should be followed, and which not. Take two laws, both of them issue from one authority. We can't appeal soley to that authority to justify the one law, and then disregard it for the other. I'm not so sure Occhi or you are saying such things, but I do hear this quite often, and that's one source of the retort that the U.S. is violating UN law.

You might say police, or whatever official power, gets away with it, becuase they are said authority.
