The kids surviving this, will have all the right to make hell rain upon these monsters.

They won't. The folks getting bombed to paste are going to struggle just to survive into the next few years. They are going to be in no position to resist their oppressors. Those who have the guns make the rules, and the IDF is far better armed thanks to the billions of dollars in military aid Americans continue to ship them.

This apartheid will continue until Americans agree to boycott the Israeli military.

Iran has plenty of money and guns to pass around. Proxy wars are the main course for the modern history of the middle east. I find saying that they won't find a way to bite back extremely ignorant of the reality on the ground and all of human history really... Most revolts were made by desperate people that had literally nothing on their own, either had to receive it from a third party of questionable intent or steal it.

The Gaza Strip was fully firewalled off from the surrounding states. Iran wasn't sending any aid - military or otherwise - into Palestine. You may have it confused with The West Bank, which the Israelis are also rapidly chewing up and demolishing. But - again - when you destroy all the civilian infrastructure and turn the territory into a post-apocolyptic hellscape, there's no place to live much less launch a rebellion out of.
