Or you must support a massive ground invasion, which I suspect many will not.

And you either support Israel's effort to remove as many civilians as possible before the ground invasion or you must accept massive civilian losses.

It's very simple, you can't destroy Hamas without causing large scale destruction in Gaza because Hamas operate from civilian areas. Saying Israel can't cause this destruction is either ignorance of the nature of this war or a veiled desire to see Israel lose it. À la the Ukraine ceasefire argument.
Good question. How did the UK deal with the IRA?

Israel is not going to solve this problem by killing people. What motivates people to join Hamas? Perhaps it has something to do with the impact Israel forces have on family members living in Gaza? Killing civilians is going to motivate more people to join Hamas.
