Or, and hear me out, we call the IDF what they are and enforce the laws already on the books.
83.18 (1) Every person who knowingly participates in or contributes to, directly or indirectly, any activity of a terrorist group for the purpose of enhancing the ability of any terrorist group to facilitate or carry out a terrorist activity is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term of not more than 10 years.
Calling Israel’s official military a terrorist organization is right on the edge of saying they’re not a state at all, and that isn’t going to happen no matter how justified it is. After-the-fact war crimes trials are at least realistically possible, even if far from ideal.

Plenty of countries declared IRGC, part of Iran’s military, a terrorist organization including US, EU, Australia. Clearly not a blocker.
