Well, not just Iran—the US does the same thing pretty blatantly a lot, and it's pretty much Israel’s only mode of operation. There's an argument that it's essentially all of international politics, masked by the fact that most countries, on all but the most existential issues, see the power vs interest calculus as favoring adhering to consensus international law and direct agreements.
