Hahahaha ok then, I'm a fool for thinking civilians exist :rofl:
And purely from a strategic view, Israel will not be any safer after the war. It will probably have the opposite effect (eg Israel-Lebanon). Not only will it lose support from the west and sympathy from people all over the world, it will also see higher amount of terrorist attacks.
Seriously? Israel won't be any safer after they wipe out Hamas? You're joking, right?
Since you think in small terms, let's personalize this for you: You have 5 enemies who are attempting to kill you. You kill 1 of those people. Are there still 4 people trying to kill you? Yes! Are you safe? No! However, are you "safer" only facing 4 enemies rather than 5?
It's very simple math, friend. And your claim that Israel will lose the support of the West is not born out by any evidence. The West has always been split on the Israel issue, but foreign aid, weapons development, and defensive systems (like the Iron Dome) have continued unabated for most of the nation's existence.
Attempting to say, "Well, but this focus on Hamas makes it so that Israel can't fight Hezbollah" is stupid as well. Israel has been fighting Hezbollah for years, and continues to fight them, even as they dig the jihadist rats out of their tunnels in Gaza. Eradicating Hamas simply removes one threat, and once they're wiped out entirely, they WILL be safer, as there'll be one less organized enemy attempting to murder them.
