    Ah yes look, the people we have mountains of evidence against are denying the thing! It * must * mean they didn’t do it! /s

      You are confusing evidence with circumstance. Your mountains of evidence amount to nothing, which is why the ICJ did not determine Israel was committing genocide in Gaza. The simple truth is that we have no idea what is happening in Gaza. When there is an Israeli tank nearby, and a civilian dies, it does NOT mean that someone in the tank shot the civilian. This is what investigations are for. And I’m not going to bother answering your other posts. It’s weird you are stalking me.

        The ICJ’s ruling does indicate that Israel is committing a genocide (or in technical jargon, “Failing to prevent one”).

        An Israeli tank nearby and a history of Israel massacring civilians is enough for me, thanks. But also thanks to Israel, no independent committee can enter Gaza to prove or disprove this. How convenient.

        We have no reason to believe otherwise.

          Absence of evidence is not evidence. This is a fallacy. And your interpretation of the ICJ is bizarre. There is no mystery. There is no definitive evidence of genocide.

          And please, stop calling it 'a genocide '. You sound like you copy/pasted it from some dumdum on the Internet.

            If there is no plausible evidence (and there is), why do you think they found it plausible enough to start a court case?

              Just stop. No one will listen to you as long as you have stupid arguments.

                Such civil, much debate! Wow!

                In a 15-2 ruling, the ICJ judges ordered that Israel must prevent the following actions against the protected “group,” which the court defined as the Palestinians of Gaza: “(a) killing members of the group; ( b ) causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group; © deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part; and ( d ) imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group.” While the specific word “ceasefire” was not mentioned in the order, the ruling could not be clearer about the court’s intent. It literally ordered Israel to stop killing Palestinians in Gaza “with immediate effect.” https://theintercept.com/2024/01/26/icj-ruling-gaza-genocide/

                In some years the final ruling will likely be genocide. In the meantime, I have some hope that people like you will see the errors of their ways.

                    So I’ll ask you again, why this initial ruling to tell Israel to stop this, if it wasn’t plausible to consider it and try it as genocide? 🤔

                    It helps if you explain to others instead of calling them stuff or giving non answers.
