What would be the outcome if ICJ correctly rules that Israel is acting on genocidal intent? (lemmygrad.ml)

The ICJ case filed by South Africa I feel is the only concerted campaign I am seeing that pressuring Israel against committing genocidal settler colonialism (outside of the resistance by some Arab countries).

If ICJ is not a kangaroo court they will end up ruling their actions as genocide. The evidence is plenty.

Can any good come out of it? Or is it hot air?

From what I can tell a likely scenario is:-

  1. ICJ correctly rules on genocide, provisional measures are supposed to then come into effect
  2. Israel flouts the rules, withdraws from ICJ
  3. Issue is forwarded to the UN security council
  4. America uses its veto against any security council measure against Israel.
