Israel: "No."
UN: "Ok, sorry, our bad."
Israel: "We own your asses."

The only option is armed resistance without targetting civilians

“Whose definition of occupation are we using?”

This is the best summary I could come up with:
The top United Nations court has ruled that Israel’s settlement policies and use of natural resources in the occupied Palestinian territories violate international law.
The ICJ president, Nawaf Salam, was reading out the court’s full opinion in a Friday session expected to take about an hour.
It has annexed East Jerusalem in a move that is not recognised internationally, while it withdrew from Gaza in 2005 but maintained a blockade of the territory after Hamas took power in 2007.
It submitted written comments, saying that the questions put to the court were prejudiced and “fail to recognise Israel’s right and duty to protect its citizens”, address Israeli security concerns or acknowledge Israel-Palestinian agreements to negotiate issues, including “the permanent status of the territory, security arrangements, settlements, and borders”.
Palestinian residents of the city face systematic discrimination, making it difficult for them to build new homes or expand existing ones.
The international community considers all settlements to be illegal or obstacles to peace since they are built on lands sought by the Palestinians for their state.

The "UN Court" has zero jurisdiction and is the equivalent of a clown court.

How many courts have condemned Israel?

What?

"The UN’s international court of justice (ICJ) has ordered Israel to end its occupation of the Palestinian territories “as rapidly as possible” and make full reparations for its “internationally wrongful acts” in a sweeping and damning advisory opinion that says the occupation violates international law."
Good. Now seize Israeli assets, the same as Russians - and use these to rebuild Palestine.
Not until the US stops backing Israel. I pray for Trump to win, just so that the world wakes up from its current trance by the US elite, which managed to sell everybody the "American dream" and destabilize the entire world.
Did it happen last time he won?
You must've forgotten that he was already president once.
You must be thinking of a different Trump. The one we have in America is a senile, diaper wearing old man who couldn’t even run a casino profitably and asked a medical professional if a possible cure for COVID was shoving a UV light up his own ass.
You kno who will save us from the Elite Billionaires from major cities running the country? The Elite Billionaire from Ney York!
So, let me get this straight. You think a Trump win will ensure that the US will stop backing Israel?
