The court is the highest UN body for hearing disputes between states. Its rulings are final and binding but have been ignored in the past, reports Reuters. The court has no enforcement powers.
And that’s by design by the Big 5.
Just like their veto power at the Security Council making sure that they don’t even get to condemn atrocities officially.
Yeah, it’s definitely not going to be enforced but it’s still breaking the Genocide Convention. It basically says that in the future Israel might not comply with international treaties if it doesn’t feel like it. This makes them hard to work with as a country.
Then there is also bilateral actions such as sanctions as a tool to put pressure.
This is great news! Now let’s act to stop genocide. I’m hoping…

I’m sure this will stop them. Israel has nothing but
contemptrespect for international law.Or else what?
Or else we will be very very angry with you, and we will write you a letter telling you how angry we are.
Genocide Joe will be continued to be voted for and praised by Americans who call themselves “progressive”, “liberal” or believe they have any “values” while politically approving of genocide.
The sad truth is that the court has no means to enforce its rulings. It relies on governments to be lawful and responsible and on people to demand that of their governments. However the majority of people in countries that still support the genocide are either themselves pro genocide or believe that genocide is in any way acceptable.
Future generations will look at our generation and consider us in the same category as the German Nazis, their supporters and those ignorant of their crimes.
Progressives clearly are not happy with Biden about his Israel stance so claiming progressives support genocide is clearly rage bait nonsense. He is absolutely not doing a good job reining Israel in, but what exactly do you expect progressives to do? Vote for Trump? Not vote at all? Either way the result would be much worse genocide.
Genocide Joe will be continued to be voted for
No, that’s actually the main problem other than the genocide itself: his stubborn insistence on actively contributing to the genocide is making it more and more likely that he’s going to lose to a fascist who’ll continue doing that AND be worse about just about everything else.
Maybe it’s time to stop “just following orders.”
Oh careful. I’ve been having comments removed for suggesting we stop voting for Democrats.
Judging from Biden’s poll numbers and approval rating, it’s Joever. He’s lost too many voters that will not return. So, vote for him if you want, I intend to. But I don’t think it matters.

Mr Biden tear down this alliance!

You don’t need to “rule the world” to ignore the ICJ.
Among others, Japan ignored an ICJ order to stop hunting protected whales and Russia ignored ICJ orders related to its invasion of Ukraine. Neither one needed help from the US.
That’s because nobody is going to fight a war over whales and Russia is Russia. Israel does not have that power level.
Nobody is going to start another war in Israel. The ICJ is a court of law, it does not authorize or even approve of violence.
We don’t need to. We just need to stop giving them military aid and sanction them until they send Netanyahu to the Hague willingly. There’s more than just military action.
