Israel is responding appropriately to acts of aggression by an ideologically motivated foreign power. Unless Israel refuses an unconditional offer of surrender, they are doing nothing that the United States was not preparing to do against Japan, and they are equally justified in doing so. Those claiming otherwise are entirely motivated by anti-Jewish hatred, no different than the leftists who throw innocent white men in prison for defending themselves from black attackers.
The US actually didn't want to invade the Japanese home islands. Dropping the A-bombs was an attempt to avoid that bloodshed. And Japan didn't really unconditionally surrender. They surrendered on condition that they keep their Emperor and also apparently that they wouldn't be hung for war crimes.
Germany was the one that didn't surrender, and the Allies destroyed it and then took vengeance on the German people.
