This is kind of an over-simplification. Zionism itself is more complex than the most expansionist forms (particularly revisionist Zionism), but the most expansionist form is what is in power right now. I think a lot of Israel’s expansion in the past could best be described as opportunistic. Previous Zionist governments willingly gave up trying to settle the east bank and withdrew from the Sinai. But now the most radical Zionists are in control, the ones who opposed every withdrawal.
You just moved the goalposts. You claimed “the end goal of the Israeli state” is as pictured. That’s a different claim than “the goal of the Lebanon war is one of expansion.” Plus the whole Israel/palestine conflict as a whole is a conflict of “expansion.” It’s a freakin land dispute, no shit
