After all, that's exactly how to protect yourself from having your enemies hate you and intensify their war against you: fight as viciously as you can.
It's a bad alternative, but it beats surrendering any day of the week. Certainly Israel has often fought in counterproductive ways, but to just hand over everything in exchange for a promise which won't be honored would be more counterproductive.
