4. Israel has lost the moral high ground.

After the Oct. 7th attack most of the world supported Israel’s right to retaliate. Israel had the moral upper hand. But as the war has progressed the wholesale, indiscriminate killing of Palestinians, not just Hamas fighters, the destruction of most homes of ordinary Gazans, and hundreds of thousands have been wandering in the desert trying to stay alive, most on the verge of starving, many dying from diseases, rampant in the absence of sanitation, running water and medical services. This is a complete moral loss by Israel.

Also most of it's allies have been critical of it's actions except for the US.

Their actions are inexcusable and immoral.
