Israel's defense establishment recommends easing Gaza restrictions
Defense establishment tells politicians that preventing social and economic meltdown in Gaza is in Israel’s best interest.
Israel's defense establishment will recommend to politicians that they show generosity in indirect negotiations with Hamas when discussing the conditions for a permanent cease-fire, in order to forestall renewed hostilities at the end of September. A senior military source has told Haaretz that it is in Israel’s interest to avoid intense social and economic pressure on Gaza.

From all reports the IDF were actually against this last war on Gaza.
They were of course subject to the political whim and convenience of those in power.
Effective militaries are nothing, if not pragmatic.
