I AM totally confused by this as well. We can't have it both ways. Let's think about this in a COMPLETELY different perspective. Take elections as an example.

I AM totally confused by this as well. We can't have it both ways. Let's think about this in a COMPLETELY different perspective. Take elections as an example. Our 2016 elections were apparently never hacked, but there's a lot of conversation going on right now about "Russian Interference" but we're not specifically arresting Russians are we? So what makes it OK for someone in a country we don't have extradition treaties with to just let them off the hook vs a country we do? In other words, the world is TOTALLY BONKERS. I mean specifically, am I breaking a law in the next sentence in China and should be arrested and put in a prison camp in CHINA for this: So this happened: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1989_Tiananmen_Square_protests https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1989_Tiananmen_Square_protests

We actually do nab people who break the law in countries we can’t extradite from. People identified working in APT (advanced persistent threat) groups get labeled and watched, then grabbed when they travel to a country where the USA or affiliated can extradite. It normally happens when they go somewhere warm for a vacation.

  > then grabbed when they travel to a country where the USA or affiliated can extradite. And some countries, Israel for example, have actually sent assets to other countries to flat out kidnap and smuggle them out. The (probably) most high profile example of this being the abduction, confinement, and smuggling of Adolf Eichmann by Shin Bet and Mossad personnel. There are films about this, one being Operation Finale. Other countries have done this to varying levels, including the United States. Some can be found starting at this point in the extraordinary rendition wiki entry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraordinary_rendition#Historical_instances https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraordinary_rendition#Histor...
