The only thing stopping Israel from doing that is international outrage. Israel is entirely dependent on its benefactor states like the US and, while it pushes the limits to the extreme, must at least contend with world opinion.

That's like me saying you're a murderer, but you just haven't killed anyone yet because you're afraid of going to jail. Maybe it's true, but it's a bit of a silly argument, isn't it? In western society, we judge people based on their actions.
Israel has murdered tens of thousands of people. Your argument doesn't hold.
That’s not what murder means. They were attacked by a government and went to war.
They've murdered tens of thousands of civilians. Israelis literally killed an entire NICU of infants.
