The current situation in Gaza highlights how Israeli government has historically modulated the Palestinian genocide according to what it thinks domestic and international (the latter being most particularly US government, necessary for both direct aid/active military defense and the shield of the Security Council veto, and which effectively insulates it from most meaningful consequences from other international quarters) support will tolerate based on the available pretexts it can use to provide superficial PR cover even while from the other side of its mouth it is fairly openly spouting eliminationist rhetoric, but its not a separate thing (and, in fact, Israel has used the focus of attention on the situation in Gaza to ramp up attacks in the West Bank with little comment; underlining how its all part of one coordinated, integrated project.)
