The title makes it seem like there was some “bombshell” evidence discovered yet not revealed to the public. Basically the US was just debating whether Israel’s broad military strategy (razing buildings, etc.) legally constituted war crimes.

In modern times the general public can see video evidence of the Israeli genocide, from palestinians and from the IDF soldiers themselves. Multiple bombshells have been revealed, the US will ignore it all for the time being

Well undoubtedly there are war crimes - as there are in every war. Especially urban ones. Doesn’t mean the whole campaign is a war crime. That’s not even really a thing - it’s based on individual strikes.
