The Israeli authorities must completely halt military operations in Rafah, as any ongoing military action could constitute an underlying act of genocide.

    These cases aren’t do/don’t. This ruling will likely give more weight to any government parties considering sanctions or other strategies.

    I also hate that we don’t have any way to stop genocides from happening, but currently sanctions and trade pressure are currently our most effective/efficient strategies. Hopefully this ruling will be one more bit of pressure, in addition to other pressures, that will provide a path to a longer term solution.
