Maybe it's your little English colonial mindset but you've a pattern here of trying to minimize and normalize the slaughter of thousands of innocents including newborns and children.
No. It won't be seen like Lebanon. Social media has ensured that, despite their best attempts to stop the flow of information out of Gaza the world has seen that Israel is no different to Hamas. It's a US backed terrorist state with zero regard for innocent lives.
What has changed also is the antisemitism card has gone. Where once the likes of Nage Waza and the rest of the defenders of genocide could cry antisemitic everytime the world pointed out their disgust and revulsion at Israeli atrocities and that they were a bunch of terrorist, genocide supporting nutjobs this is no longer the case. Revulsion and disgust at Israel and its supporters is justified, demonstrable and a perfectly normal reaction to their disgusting atrocities.
And then there's the small matter of ICJ and their genocide legacy.
So no. Despite your sick attempt to minimize this, this is nothing like Lebanon. People don't look back at Lebanon and think of children getting murdered. Civilians being starved to death. Executed as they scramble for food. Aid workers being murdered. Health workers lured to their death and executed. And so on.
