Basically same difference.
It was a preliminary ruling. That's the closest to "definitely committing genocide" you can get in a preliminary ruling.
I wonder what your deflection will be when the ICJ warrants are granted and Netanyahu can't go to most of the world without being arrested...
No, all it states is there are grounds to investigate. That is how law works. Innocent until guilty. They would have convicted by now had the evidence been as cut and dry as you think it is.
Guilty? Good. Arrest them. Until then due process is paramount in a civilized society that doesn't execute people for being gay or trans.
Bullshit. "Grounds to investigate" doesn't come with orders.
They've been proven guilty again and again for 75 years. That the US keep vetoing every resolution doesn't make the fascist apartheid regime innocent.
No. As alluded to above, there's a shitload of pressure from the likes of the US to never hold Israel accountable for their countless atrocities.
You can't be this fucking obtuse. You literally can't think that it's that simple. 🤦
Where's the due process for the 200k Gazans Israel has killed since October, most of whom were innocent civilians?
Israel kills a LOT more gay and trans Gazans than Hamas does. Also, it's not very LGBTQ+ friendly to blackmail LGBTQ Palestinians into informing on their neighbors
I won't reciprocate your personal attacks. Perpetual revenge isn't my kink. I'll just leave your comment there as a monument to your side's ability to see reason, seek and accept true justice, and not excuse reprehensible behaviour with false tu quoques.
I guess you just back the world champions of oppression and disproportionate retribution for nonsexual reasons, then. That's slightly better, I guess 🤷
Your version of "seeing reason" is genocide denial. Stop trying to gaslight me with your Hasbara nonsense, please.
That's exactly what I'm doing ffs 🤦
Such as genocide with a side of deliberately targeting aid workers, healthcare workers and journalists trying to show the world what's happening? This you?
