It's remarks by the plaintiff's attorney meant to elicit emotion. It includes zero context. Who died - were they militants with guns? Were they civilian casualties of war? No one knows. Just a bizarre connection between Bethlehem and Gaza. Bethlehem is not in Gaza.

I am not sure what facts I am supposed to gather from this.

    Of course it was, those were the closing remarks. You can watch the full speech which gives you the argument spelled out.

    Or read South Africa's case https://www.icj-cij.org/case/192

    Ms Ní Ghrálaigh's pedigree in addressing genocide is extensive, as mentioned in the linked article.

    One can only counter misdirection with facts. There is a Zionist genocide of Palestinians going on right now in Gaza.
