I’m not sure what you want Israel to do? Ignore the attack?
I want Israel to wield their power and superiority in such a way that takes the moral high ground.
Hamas invaded Israel and killed civilians and ransacked their homes.
Israel invaded Gaza, bombing the city and killing civilians before ransacking their (vacant) homes.
Military action should be focused on military objectives. Neither side is doing that, thus both sides should be derided for their actions in this regard. They behave differently, but both share strikingly similar flaws.
Hamas could end the violence that’s killing Palestinians today. Easily. Just stop hiding behind them and surrender.
Israel are far more capable at ending things right now than Hamas. If Hamas surrendered, Israel could easily come up with some other excuse to keep pressing. If Israel stopped, Hamas would not be in a position to perform another 7 Oct attack. Israel are not defending, they are very clearly on the offensive.
At the end of the day, the real goal here is to expend ordinance and buy more, thus financing the weapons industry. An end won’t happen until profit targets are met (assuming the goals don’t just get stretched further).
