CJ interim ruling : a deception !

The ICJ orders Israel to prevent genocidal acts in Gaza but not to end the war .
The UN's top court rules that Israel must take all measures to prevent genocidal acts in Gaza, but it stops short of ordering an immediate halt to operations. The 17-strong panel of judges did not grant South Africa’s request that Israel should be ordered to “immediately suspend” its military operations in Gaza.
Indeed , what's the use of this whole show ! ( the full ruling will take years), the ICJ has stopped short of demanding a ceasefire, as South Africa had requested, and has, however, called for the release of Israeli hostages.
"The court’s decisions on emergency measures are legally binding, but it cannot enforce them itself. In March 2022, it ordered Russia to suspend its military operations in Ukraine, but Moscow refused to comply."
We need an immediate ceasefire , nothing more nothing less, that's the only way to stop the killings and the humanitarian crisis-" a ceasefire of hostilities that should pave the way for a “ceasefire on hate”.
