    Yes, I think it’s very fair to also point out how many Israelis have not asked for this mess and would like it solved.

    I think they should be doing more to solve it, but their hearts are in the right place.

      A large number of them have been out protesting Netanyahu’s power grabs. Incidentally, that may be one reason why the Mossad missed this attack. Mossad was too busy looking inwards at the chaos Netanyahu caused (and people who might be extremists on either side as a result), and missed what Hamas was planning. Basically, Netanyahu in many ways helped cause this situation, and now he stands to benefit from it, as people rally behind the strong leader who will protect them by killing Hamas militants, people near Hamas militants, people who might be Hamas militants, people who live in a building that might contain Hamas militants, etc.
