People keep saying genocide but has it been established objectively? I seem to remember the ICJ deciding they weren't, but that was some time ago.

Is this some reality distortion field? This never happened. Instead the ICJ issued multiple explicit orders to Israel that Israel has violated and the genocide case is still ongoing.

Who cares about ICJ or any International Law these days anymore?

Yeah, I mean we can still use it (or it's slowness and uselessness) to hide behind it but the facts are on the table. Gaza looks like post-war Germany at this point. People ARE starving. Meanwhile Israel expands to the east. Also illegally.

People keep questioning the definition of genocide, as if finding some technical distinction will absolve the perpetrators.

If you actually care about international law, you might be interested to know that the ICC has issued (standing) arrest warrants for Netanyahu and the former Israeli Minister for Defense for various crimes against humanity and the use of starvation in warfare.
