How bad do you think Israel is at carpet bombing? Honestly, multiple weeks of carpet bombing, by any modern estimate, should dismantle all of Gaza. That very demonstrably has not happened.
So are they really, really bad at it or are they not attempting it?
Ok so the issue is semantics? Ok fine over 6000 bombs dropped in a tiny area. What gaza is 365 sqaure km, most of the bombs are in the north so over 6k bombs in an area of 180 Square km? Obviously ignoring the open spaces so what is the threshold of acceptability for you?
There were more than that many rockets launched into Israel in the same period. Should responses not be proportionate?
I’ve already stated multiple times that Israel is bungling the humanitarian aspect of this and should be held accountable for that.
That doesn’t make it genocide, or even disproportionate, by any stretch of the imagination. It’s most assuredly not “carpet bombing.”
There is no country on the planet that would not respond similarly.
Is it a shitty situation? Hell yeah. Are the causes of this long and varied? Sure. Is this specific war uniquely bad? No. It’s pretty run-of-the-mill. War is just a terrible thing. This is a tragedy, and there’s no need to make it seem worse than it is because of politics.
So if hamas manages to get more powerful weapons, it’s justifiable for them to hit back israel? What israel is doing will empower hamas, there will be more and deadlier attacks by them in the future. A saying comes to mind. Bombing for peace is like fucking for virginity.
Well then, best just carpet bomb all of gaza then right?

Have you not seen the satellite images?
Yes, of course I have. I am aware of what wars do.
Then you would see the absurdity of your statement.
I think you may want to investigate what a modern “carpet bombing” campaign can do, because it’s at least an order of magnitude more destructive.
