Would you prefer Biden? Macron? Scholz? They all don’t call it a genocide. Who is calling it a genocide? The Arab league signed up to call it a genocide as a whole but does al-Sisi even call it a genocide? Does the king of Saudi call it a genocide?
Most world leaders also don’t call the Armenian genocide, genocide despite the fact the word was coined to describe it, and you have plenty of examples of genocide after WW2 that were tolerated by the international community. International politics are not a good court, because governments by their own nature tend to focus on what’s expedient for the national interests and not in what’s right.
Edit: I just remembered a particularly nasty one, remember when the western world and China decided to support the Khmer Rouge and the Cambodian Genocide (and before you go full denialist on this one, it was classified as such by an international court).
Idunno maybe because they are leaders of major countries involved. I listed Trudeau as a notable left leaning western leader who does not agree with this agenda.
Why is South Africa championing a genocide ICJ case for Palestinians?
Why Justin Trudeau?

I don’t have a preference. I was, and still am, just curious why Justin Trudeau?
Now I am also why you listed all the others you listed as well?

Why is South Africa championing a genocide ICJ case for Palestinians?
Because they went through apartheid and are sensitive to oppressive, violent, and racist governments.
No idea, I haven’t really paid attention to the case.
