> will simply point out that there is no genocide, in fact or in law

The ICJ deemed the genocide accusation plausible. It's a well documented case. The report by Francesca Albanese does a great job of explaining it: https://www.ohchr.org/sites/default/files/documents/hrbodies...

It was just reported the discovery of mass graves where IDF hid Palestinian bodies: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/apr/23/un-rights-chie...

Exactly so. A legal case is ongoing, not yet judged, so there is no genocide in law. And on your second point, it has already been widely debunked as Hamas propaganda; in any case, the evidence adduced would not constitute evidence of genocide. The rush to claim genocide is more indicative of the state of mind of the accusers than anything else.
