Is it true that anti-Semites humiliate #Israel with UN resolutions?

I don't want to dwell on the usual suspect countries that never miss an opportunity to smack Israel.
However, it is astonishing that the following countries have agreed to the resolution: #Belgium, #Ireland, #Luxembourg, #Portugal and #Slovenia
(I admit that these countries are all in the #EU, so I have not chosen them entirely at random. I could write a thousand-page essay on what is wrong in these countries. However, in my opinion I am sure that these countries are not practicing politically motivated anti-Semitism.)

So what can be so horrible about the resolution? source: https://undocs.org/Home/Mobile?FinalSymbol=A%2FRES%2F77%2F247
Decides, in accordance with Article 96 of the Charter of the United
Nations, to request the International Court of Justice, pursuant to Article 6 5 of the
Statute of the Court, to render an advisory opinion on the following questions,
considering the rules and principles of international law, including the Charter of the
United Nations, international humanitarian law, international human rights law,
relevant resolutions of the Security Council, the General Assembly and the Human
Rights Council, and the advisory opinion of the Court of 9 July 2004:
(a) What are the legal consequences arising from the ongoing violation by
Israel of the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination, from its prolonged
#occupation, #settlement and annexation of the Palestinian territory occupied since
1967, including measures aimed at altering the demographic composition, character
and status of the Holy City of #Jerusalem, and from its adoption of related
discriminatory legislation and measures?
(b) How do the policies and practices of Israel referred to in paragraph 18 (a)
above affect the legal status of the occupation, and what are the legal consequences
that arise for all States and the United Nations from this status?
As written, it is only about an advisory opinion without consequences, since both Israel and the U.S. do not accept the court.
