It's a little different than that, because rather than use the attack as a pretext to attack a country that never attacked us, Netanyahu attacked the same group of people Zionists have been attacking for over a century now.
Driving the Palestinians out of Israel wasn't enough. Forcing the Palestinians to live in camps in Gaza wasn't enough, so they've destroyed most of Gaza. Allowing the Palestinians to live in the West Bank wasn't enough, so there's over 100 Zionist colonies in the West Bank now.
The Palestinians will be squeezed and pushed until they are all forced to relocate, or dead. Doesn't matter which.
There isn't much to debate about this. This is the history that's been playing out since before Israel was even born.
Zionism has always been a philosophy of conquest and occupation. Never one of peaceful co-existence.
Zionism is a Colonial movement modeled after the White European Racist tradition of colonization. If you know anything about history, you know all those colonies failed, always at the cost of African lives.
"Zionism has been described by several scholars as a form of settler colonialism in relation to the region of Palestine and the Israeli"Palestinian conflict. Zionism's founders and early leaders were aware and outspoken about their status as colonizers; early leading Zionists such as Theodor Herzl, Max Nordau, and Ze'ev Jabotinsky described Zionism as colonization."

Wikipedia continues, "Critics have argued that the characterization of Zionism as settler colonialism does not fit traditional colonial frameworks, seeing Zionism instead as the repatriation of an indigenous population and an act of self-determination."
Those two aren't mutually exclusive, You can ethnically cleanse the land of the Palestinians and call it repatriation of indigenous population, but you still ethnically cleaned the land. Zionism dislocated people who didn't arrive there as part of any political movement or territorial conquest. People who had been living peacefully alongside Christians and Jews for several centuries.
Bulldozing hundreds of Palestinian villages, literally "erasing them from the map" and building new villages with new names for the repatriated Jews is an irrevocable act of conquest.
There was never any intent or desire by Zionists for Israel to live peacefully with Arabs, within or outside Israel.
If you can't figure this out, it's because you don't want to:
During the 1947"1949 Palestine war, or the Nakba, around 400 Palestinian Arab towns and villages were forcibly depopulated by Israeli forces, with a majority being destroyed and left uninhabitable.
