Gaza has been burnt to the ground

4. The end game for Israel & the Palestinians in not pretty. No one, Arab or West, is looking to send $$$ to rebuild Gaza

And while Hamas as a government was a bad choice originally, it did administer government like services to keep a semblance of civil authority until its military arm let loose in October. Last thing Israel wants to do is stay in the line of fire in Gaza when all this is over and try to administer as an occupying force or de facto governmental administration. Hamas likely will survive in some form as embedded terrorists albeit significantly weakened for a time. And no one is willing to take meaningful numbers of Palestinians into their country. And we get a black eye ongoing to degree our weapons and diplomatic cover for Israel in the UN and elsewhere allow Israel to continue an overwrought and vengeful effort to try and eradicate Hamas while killing and wounding over 100k Palestinians so far while starving the rest and denying them adequate medical and basic infrastructure services. The likely "end" is there will be no end, just a lot more suffering, insecurity and waiting for the next level of calamity in the region.
