I think this is the essential point, Some people who support what Israel is doing actually do disagree with this. I know that a number of Israel government ministers disagree together with a disturbing number of Israelis citizens.
If you think that the Arabs do not deserve the same rights, freedoms, etc. as yourself then you can rationalise what do you are allowed to do to them and how you do it. If you then add the toxic narrative that since they voted in Hamas and did not rid themselves of these Islamists, Gazans deserve the consequences of the ongoing conflict. Sort of summed up by: "If they die, then they die". There is a enormous historical irony here.
