The real value with stuff like this is having organizations that are prestigious, objective, and involve theoretically real stakes frame Israel's actions in terms of war crimes and genocide. It can force libs squarely into "ok but this genocide is acceptable because our guy is doing it nicer than Trump" territory instead of "come on, it's ugly, but it's no genocide."

I'd rather it force them to take a look at what they're supporting but this is more realistic
I think it'll force some people to reconsider, especially when they find themselves surrounded by "but this genocide is OK."
