I've sometimes contacted the Israeli government over the past thirty years or so, and I've gotten the impression their concept of international politics as it pertains to them is in the quotation, "Let some other organization be responsible; not us, not Israel!" -- "Let the United Nations be responsible for the Palestinians living on our land, not us!" "Let the United states push for a two-state solution between the Israelis and the Palestinians" when they know that the Palestinians have no money to be an independent state. Very well, let the US go ahead with its proposal and see where it leads. NOWHERE!
But recently, they have taken a more responsible role in affairs close to home. They have sought to stabilize the Syrian situation through military action on their part. They continue to keep the crazy Hezbollah militants in check. And now just in the past ten days they are declaring responsibility for Gaza. Specifically, they are aiming to wipe out the Hamas-militants who have assumed power over the Palestinians in Gaza. They are intent on expanding their military might to include the entire peninsula. This is indeed an internationally responsible course of action for the world power that Israel is. It also displays wise ownership of its lands, regardless of who are the occupants.
