A slight addendum from another German: we have the adjective "händeringend", which is the verbatim translation of "hand wringing-ly". It's usually not used in a negative, scheming connotation, though - if you look/search for something "händeringend", your are desperately looking for that something.

The actual act of wringing your hands is associated with generic Bond villains, though.

Language is weird.
