I think if Egypt has learned anything from the Saudi-Yemen crisis (or the Myanmar Rohingya, etc.), it's that as long as you're attacking people who are poorer than you, the international community doesn't give a fuck. The only wrinkle is that Ethiopia has a lot of Christians, so that could be problematic for Egypt. Seems like they don't really need to fight a war, though. Send a few shiny US-built missiles at the dam and problem solved a la Israel on Iraq's nascent nuclear reactor. Not like they need territorial control. Am I missing something?
