A few days ago I shared some news that the Eurovision song from Israel would be named "Your land is mine now" to later realize it was from an onion kind of website, lol.

I hope I'm not alone in this kind of f'up.

I got bored. https://www.npr.org/2024/01/27/1227397107/icj-finds-genocide-case-against-israel-plausible-orders-it-to-stop-violations That is literally the first hit from google. I know you won't read it, but you should.

You should also really watch South Africa's presentation: https://webtv.un.org/en/asset/k11/k11gf661b3

And the courts findings yourself, and get your news from a primary source: https://webtv.un.org/en/asset/k1u/k1uwq4cxuv

We do know the conclusion to the prelimenary hearing to determine if Israel is plausibly committing genocide, which is what has happened so far. Pretending that that hasn't happened is just bad faith arguing from a bigot.

Have fun justifying people starving to death with bellies full of grass caused by a government found by the ICJ to plausibly be committing genocide.

But you are bringing forth accusations, millenia old accusations, and they should be examined.

They have been. You're ignoring anything that gives an answer you don't like, and accusing the people who have paid attention of being antisemites, cheapening the word for actual antisemitism.
