The Israeli government also not only failed to stop a conference that some of its allies fear may have featured genocidal rhetoric, but saw a significant part of its cabinet in attendance.
Stopping such rhetoric, and not killing or injuring Palestinians in Gaza, were among the most direct orders the ICJ gave Israel.
