Israel is currently at war.
“War” isn’t really a fitting word for committing genocide against unarmed civilians for being the wrong ethno-religious group on land you intend to steal.
Regardless of your feelings, they literally declared war, so yes it is the correct word.
I mean I’ve declared war on a plate of lasagna before but nobody should sell me tank shells because of it.

I don’t believe you have the international authority to have your declaration recognized as a formal act of war, though.
Do you work for the IDF?
No I just know how words work
And still look stupid. An achievement.
