I don't think they'll go down as heroes, I think this is going to go down more or less how native American genocide happened in the US west. Native Americans would do cattle raids or revenge killings, which were often used as justifications for even more violence against non-combatants (followed by the taking of that sweet, sweet land). Which is more or less what's happening here. I think the formation of the modern Israeli state was a huge mistake, and now we've got to deal with it. Ultimately, no solution's going to be popular, but letting the IDF commit genocide while saying "but HAMAS" ain't it. HAMAS has offered to disband itself in the latest peace talks, which Israel rejected. That really just leaves the naked truth that what Israel wants in the land, and if they've got to murder everyone there for it, that's a small price for the US to subsidize.
