I mean we already know what they're going to say now. Any legitimate court that looks at evidence of an ongoing genocide isn't going to announce their findings to come in few days, giving the genociders couple few more days to keep genociding unimpeded

Not to be confused with meat.
I agree that the US will probably never let Israel be convicted of genocide (and by extension get itself convicted for being an accessory) but this provisional order for a ceasefire isn't exactly that, plus the Americans would probably prefer it if Israel cuts the bullshit at this point instead of dragging them into a regional war, so.... maybe they'll let it slide? I'm not entirely pessimistic but we'll see.

Israel will absolutely disobey the court, obviously, but still.

Wasn't the settler community "traumatized" when the IDF dismantled their settlements in Gaza around 2000?

It seems possible that a faction friendly to them in government might actually want to give settlers in the West Bank enough weapons to prevent the IDF from evicting them without kicking off a civil war?

The ACW was preceded by southern politicians within the US government diverting huge amounts of weapons to southern arsenals, ordering federal guards be replaced with (obviously secessionist) local militias. These shipments comprised almost the entirety of the Confederate arsenal during the war. Beyond allowing the CSA to raise and equip an army which would have been impossible otherwise, the diverted US stocks included the cannons, powder, explosives and other heavy ordnance the southern states would not have been able to produce themselves. Cannon shipped "by accident" to Charleston, South Carolina, which everybody knew as early as the 1830's was a hotbed of radicalism and treason, were used to shell Fort Sumpter and kick the whole thing off.

I think it was 2005 when Ariel Sharon was trying to disengage from Gaza, they dismantled 21 or settlements. Reading interviews from settler leaders that definitely seems to have been a radicalization moment for the whole 'movement' and when they shifted from being hostile to Israeli media and society to building their own media apparatus and pushing militarization and genocide rhetoric hard.

It's disgusting, but it worked.

did people actually think the icj ruling would result in anything? lol

its good that countries are taking a stand against israel in western backed courts though

at the very least its going to make it very awkward for “serious” people on TV having to articulate their position in the face of the icj judgement

In the initial ruling, the ICJ will not deal with the main question of whether Israel is committing genocide. The court will just look at possible emergency measures, meant as a kind of restraining order while the court looks at the full case, which usually takes years.

Stripped, Beaten or Vanished: Israel’s Treatment of Gaza Detainees Raises Alarm
A U.N. office said Israel’s detention and treatment of detainees might amount to torture. It estimated thousands had been detained and held in “horrific” conditions. Some were freed wearing only diapers.

Cold, almost naked and surrounded by Israeli soldiers with M16 assault rifles, Ayman Lubbad knelt among dozens of Palestinian men and boys who had just been forced from their homes in northern Gaza.


It was early December and photographs and videos taken at the time showed him and other detainees in the street, wearing only underwear and lined up in rows, surrounded by Israeli forces. In one video, a soldier yelled at them over a megaphone: “We’re occupying all of Gaza. Is that what you wanted? You want Hamas with you? Don’t tell me you’re not Hamas.”

The detainees, some barefoot with their hands on their heads, shouted objections. “I’m a day laborer,” one man shouted.

“Shut up,” the soldier yelled back.

Palestinian detainees from Gaza have been stripped, beaten, interrogated and held incommunicado over the past three months, according to accounts by nearly a dozen of the detainees or their relatives interviewed by The New York Times. Organizations representing Palestinian prisoners and detainees gave similar accounts in a report, accusing Israel of both indiscriminate detention of civilians and demeaning treatment of detainees
