The aim of that 1948 resolution was always to create a two state setup, with well defined borders and neighbours living in peace alongside each other.

It went wrong, and not as intended.

To say 'There is no genocide, no apartheid, no occupation' just flies in the face of the current situation.

But denial followed by accusations of anti-Semitism is required to make it all seem 'normal'.
Fairly standard 'Hey, we are the Good Guys here!' rhetoric.

Some see it differently.
"International Court of Justice calls on Israel to end occupation of Palestinian territories 'as rapidly as possible'
The case was referred to the ICJ by the UN General Assembly in December 2022. The judges declared the Israeli occupation 'unlawful' and reiterated the Palestinians' unconditional 'right to self-determination.' "
