    The claim is baseless and the court will rule as such, it doesn’t matter how much “support” the claim has.

      The court already ruled it’s not baseless and Israel must act to stop committing war crimes.

        No, that’s not true. They did not ask Israel to “stop committing war crimes” as that would imply they ruled that Israel is currently committing war crimes. The ruling instead asks Israel to refrain from any genocidal acts.

          Lmao. It tells them to take effective measures immediately and report back. Which means they aren’t now taking effective measures to prevent their troops from committing genocide.

          Which boils down to them telling Israel to stop it. To let aid in. This is their conclusion after hearing about Israel fomenting a famine.

          The State of Israel shall take immediate and effective measures to enable the provision of urgently needed basic services and humanitarian assistance to address the adverse conditions of life faced by Palestinians in the Gaza Strip;

          They would not order that if they believed Israel was already doing it.

          Similarly -

          The State of Israel shall ensure with immediate effect that its military does not commit any acts described in point 1 above; (UN Definition Genocide)

          The State of Israel shall take all measures within its power to prevent and punish the direct and public incitement to commit genocide in relation to members of the Palestinian group in the Gaza Strip;

          The State of Israel shall take effective measures to prevent the destruction and ensure the preservation of evidence related to allegations of acts within the scope of Article II and Article III of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide against members of the Palestinian group in the Gaza Strip;

          The ICC didn’t declare it a genocide right now because that’s not how it works.

            Again, this is not true. You have done the same thing as you did before regarding war crimes, the first part of what you say is true and the second part is your own opinion passed off as the truth. The court has heard allegations of genocide, and the preliminary response is to ask Israel to refrain from any genocidal acts or incitements.
