It'd be nice if they'd stop bombing hospitals and depriving millions of people of the basic necessities of survival then. Oh, and it'd also be nice if they'd stop referring to Palestinians as animals and shooting children in the west bank. And It'd be nice if Netanyahu would stop saying his goal is to annex the west bank and the Gaza strip. And if the Israeli state would stop encouraging settlers to illegally (by their own laws) occupy the west bank.

The attack was also 3 months ago. And tens of thousands of Palestinians have been murdered since then.

It's not annexation, it's called irredentism in this circumstance. Gaza is uninhabitable from structural and civil engineering standpoints because of Hamas's tunnels. It has no capacity or resources to make itself safe. It has also proven it has no ability or desire to actually root out Hamas. So now their neighbor is morally obligated to do it for them.

"neighbor" is a funny way to describe an occupying force that has kept them under siege with no end in sight.

Gaza is uninhabitable because the IDF levelled every fucking building there.

Right. Someone dug tunnels under them all and then launched decades of terrorist attacks from them. October 7 was the last end of the rope.
