I don't think they can diplomatically.
I think they need to do it with assassinations/spycraft/covert operations. Well, I said "need" but I meant "needed". As in they should have done it that way. A little late now. They should obviously stop murdering civilians and terrorizing the population immediately and hopefully a handful of individuals that would have become hellbent on vengeance won't be added to the ranks they've already created.
Israel has done an awesome job making many in the world hate them for their appalling policies and have fomented total loathing and seething hatred amongst the Palestinian population in the area that will haunt them for a couple generations at least, so that's cool, I guess.
I think any country would want to exact revenge and show their power to discourage future attacks. It's basically mandatory; however, Israel has done this poorly. They have attacked civilians (which is weird, because isn't that one of the main problems we have with the October 7 attacks...the indiscriminate murder and terrorization of innocents?) instead of the perpetrators.
