Do your own research. That was literally the point of the court hearing.
It's why they ordered Israel to preserve evidence.
Seriously, watch all three presentations. It's worth doing. Unless you don't want your obvious world view destroyed.
If you don't want to be `bullied' (although, I can't for the life of me understand why you'd use that word for people defending themselves from your accusations of antisemitism due to them pointing out a genocide), then don't attack people with the bad faith accusation of antisemitism.
You still haven't answered the question.
Come on, I answered yours. It's your turn.
What would it take for you to admit that recognizing a genocide isn't antisemitism?
If the ICJ stated genocide is likely happening, those quotes exist and would be used by you to bolster their case.
I think.you are essentially just makinf your argument on the vibe of your reading of the international.courts, and not what is documented. Am i correct?

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
I think you are refusing to do any research on something you aren't willing to change your mind about. I think nothing would change your mind, so you didn't even bother watching any of the three parts of the hearing because you already knew what you would believe.
Your method of doing that is to never state a clear opinion, not engage in any logic, and respond to everything with questions.
I'll follow suit. What do you think the purpose of that hearing was, and what do you think the conclusion was for the hearing?
But, as per my previous paragraph, I'd bet you didn't even watch it.
I'm sorry you don't like the fact that I'm asking you questions regarding your claims instead of just arguing at you or outright accepting them without question. I imagine I can be frustrating when you are wanting one of those two options and I won't provide it.
But you are bringing forth accusations, millenia old accusations, and they should be examined.
As for what I think the conclusion of the hearings was, we have not concluded the proceedings whatsoever and anybody claiming determinations have been released is being dishonest.
I'm giving you every opportunity to discuss this without hyperbolism.

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.
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.
Last week the first children (cause children always die first from starvation) died from starvation.
Say it with me: Israel is committing genocide you bigoted fuck.
