Objective, evidence-based conclusions are, almost by definition, slow to reach.

To be fair, their rapporteurs and teams on the ground have been using the label genocide for quite some time, and the UN as an organisation hasn't been resistant to this. Thousands of people have spent thousands of hours verifying and nailing down every single atrocity to get to this point - otherwise, the one incident which they failed to properly evidence would be seized upon by the Israelis to discredit the entire process.

For us as humans, it looks obvious because it *is* obvious. But to lay the foundations for what has to come next, and to destroy the hiding places for enablers like Starmer, everything has to be rock-solid. Nobody can now claim that the conditions for genocide are not being met, and still remain on the right side of history.
