I have a solution: we force the region to start respecting human rights or we start incarcerating offenders. We don't need to build a bunch of condos for the palestinians, we don't need to give them lawyers or outsource their legal disputes, we don't need to help either side militarize against the other: we just need to hold them to a bare minimum standard by force and they'll sort the shit out in a few decades.

This is what the ICJ was made for. These are the rules we all agreed to play by after WWII. They fucked around, it should be the right of anybody and everyone who wants to interfere to go in and make them find out.

BTW human rights should include not being segregated into walled off districts.

How?

Are we going to invade?

Or is it more likely that it ends up a North Korea situation where those who are in charge of such atrocities just don't go to countries that will arrest them?

Yes, they're going to get invaded. That should not upset anybody who believes in the sanctity of human life because it's certainly not going to create a worse outcome than 2 million people being starved out.

My concern is that unlike Nazi Germany, Fascist Israel will not surrender. I am very worried that soon it is going to start nuking the region as part of a state failure cycle.

Germany "surrendered" after we pushed into Berlin and Hitler had killed himself.

Nuke sabre rattling is pointless, if mutually assured destruction isn't enough of a deterrent then theres nothing more we could do about it of we wanted to.

Israel's gonna fucking find out, sooner or later.

Yeah I don’t think Israel is managed well enough to be afraid of mutually assured destruction. I think it will just start tossing nukes. I am not thrilled about this.
