The Senate, at the least, must give the nod to such a thing.

So why should not the full legislative process be accorded at least as much respect.

No disrespect to Congress but the point of a treaty is to formalize an agreement between sovereign parties. Congress can't tell another country to give our diplomats immunity. All the Senate can do is ratify an agreement negotiated by the Executive.
