The problem with what you're saying is that Israel commits war crimes every day. So why should the world side with them?

The problem is pro-Palestinian side trying to claim that illegal detention and collateral damage from war is equal to terrorist operations that intentionally targeted massacres of civilians.

That doesn't work for anyone with a sense of nuance and common sense.
