I think experts agreed it was ethnic cleansing, not genocide before this current war

Not even remotely true. This has been being discussed for decades, and many experts have concluded that Israel's actions both during the Nakba and subsequently meet the definition of genocide.

Here's an examination of the many different arguments around this by the Center for Constitutional Rights, from 2016, concluding that scholars and human rights legal experts have identified Israeli actions as genocide (as well as other international crimes) for a long time.
