The International Court of Justice (ICJ) ordered Israel on Friday to take action to prevent acts of genocide as it wages war against Hamas militants in the Gaza Strip but stopped short of calling for an immediate ceasefire.

The top United Nations court for handling disputes between states was ruling in a case brought by South Africa.

Here are key takeaways from the decision.

    Ah yes, the classic “you’re anti-semetic if you’re against genocide” defense.

      Yeah, the Israeli government’s response to the ICJ decision have been appalling.

      Im not criticizing Reuters as a whole for leaving out defense minister Gallant’s and security minister Ben-Gvir’s comments, I just think it was a mistake to not include that in this article. The Israeli government is not just mocking the ICJ, they’re delegitimizng it.
