They shot down innocent festival goers. Young people. Killed and raped, and driven around in the back of a truck for display. They even took elderly women hostages.

This is not acceptable, in any sort of way. Never.

Gazans have the right to revolution, just as the Americans, French, and Chinese did.

The difference is that those were successful in overthrowing the regime. Even at the time of them happening the established regimes across the world did condemn those, too.

I’m not arguing that the Palestinians should not revolt. However if you do, it helps if you deal a decisive blow. If history shows one thing is is that failed attempts at revolution lead to harsh persecution.

If anything this attempt has strengthened the Israeli goverment, where Israelites were finally fed up with the shenanigans of power concentration of Netanyahu and revolting against him, now everyone falls in line, because of this attack.

I’m not disputing the legality, tactically it’s been a huge mistake. And the ramifications are horrendous, but I don’t think anybody is surprised by that (I must note that I abjectly oppose those).

USA sends on average 3.8 billion a year in aid to Israel. Israel also has a lobbying system in the US to skew public opinion in favor of Israel (the most prominent groups are CUFI and AIPAC), where in certain divisions, Mossad bots spew Israeli propaganda on fake accounts (much like the Kremlin bots).

The government always touts Israel as “our best ally”. Not to mention that USA always has unequivocal support to Israel, even if they might criticise them for a couple things. Funny how they support the oppressed while also supporting the aggressor.
