See the problem is, you don't know how to do it without injuring civilians, and neither does any other country fighting against terrorists using this style of warfare. The whole playbook for them is to make it impossible to fight without wholesale slaughter. Israel has chosen that option here rather than letting them continue.
They are far from the first country to do so.
The US killed around 50,000 Afghani civilians as direct retaliation for 9/11 in a bomb all the shit campaign against the Taliban. Did it make Americans sick enough to stop it?
The US killed a few hundred thousand civilian Iraqis during that 2003 invasion, and it turns out the entire premise for the invasion was false. Did it make Americans sick enough to stop it?
FFS, the US nuked two Japanese cities.. and the public was totally onboard at the time.
The Japanese have done it themselves to China and Korea. China has done it to a bunch of different minorities now. Clearly the Germans did it. Russia has done it. The British and Spanish have done it.
Civilian populations of the offending country rarely have a problem with it, that hasn't started until very recently in history.
So why would Israelis be sick of killing 30,000 Palestinians in response to an attack that killed over 1000 Israeli Civilians (and where they kidnapped hostages)?
You may not like this answer, but it's still correct.
Fucking diplomacy.
Israel is being like a five year old... Learn to use your words, you'll get better outcomes.
The only way out is diplomatic. They will not bomb their way to peace
