    Or else any last semblance of the rules-based international order is out the window.

      It already was after Iraq, but now they dragged it upstairs to throw it out of the window again, just to make sure it’s really dead.

      Eh. The ICJ has zero enforcement authority, and is often very selectively ignored by tons of countries.

      The result of this will be:

      Israel: no.

      ICJ:

      Note that this is not a defense of Israel or an endorsement of the ongoing genocide they’re perpetrating. It’s merely a statement on how the ICJ is effectively toothless.
