All wars Israel has been involved in were started by its enemies. You can start an argument about settlements and there is some merit to that. But no honest discussion can be started from your position.

If Israel didn't try to minimize civilian casualties, this would look very different. To say otherwise is not only cynical PR, it is actively malicious. Towards Israeli and Palestinians both.
