and will thrust the war with Hamas into uncharted territory.

It's not a war with Hamas, but against innocent civilians...

Always was, since more than 50 years.

Why go through the rigamarole we all knew you intend on doing it.

Is it just a vain attempt to legitimize it so you can ignore the feeling of being a piece of shit?

It is an attempt at legitimizing it to prevent diplomatic action against it.

Israel is past the point where its allies have had elections and, generally, has either had people elected who maintained the status quo or allowed Israel to do more than the previous administration. Israel can now eat Gaza in diplomatic peace.
