It would be only just if the Palestinians would get their own state after this.

“Now imagine this scenario and ignore everything else that’s happened for the last 60-70 years and oh yeah, don’t mention the current genocide.”

Let's not ignore the last 60-70 or even 1400 years.

Israelis hit back hard. But they haven't been the ones to declare war on peaceful neighbors.

It wasn't them who stood for thr München massacre or a number of plane hijackings in the 70ies.

It wasn't Israelis who blew up buses in Gaza.

Was it?

We must stop confusing powerful with evil and currently helpless with "innocent".

1400 years ? it was a creation of the second world war, but anyway regarding neighbors you mean other than bombing iran, syria, yemen, lebanon I believe in all these cases israel attacked first and thats in the past 12months. I think your point was meant to be more that Israel has a right to defend its self and I think most people and countries would back Israel in that right if the response had been proportionate. instead theyve killed record numbers of journalists(worst in history), 70% of the dead are women and children (tried adding links but doesnt seem to let me), more than a thousand are dead due to starvation directly caused by Israel, this isn't how wars are fought.
