    If Israel were interested in wiping out Gaza, the death toll would be in the hundreds of thousands or millions, which would be consistent with other world conflicts.

    This is a common argument but it doesn’t really hold up to scrutiny. You’re saying what would happen if Israel was interested in wiping out Gaza and didn’t care at all about their image. If they did (which they obviously do) they would have to do it more subtly. They are not just going to drop a few nukes and call it a day, that would be geopolitical suicide
