They absolute can whitewash it. There’s a historical precedent for white washing war crimes over millennia. Generally you just have to dangle shiny objects in front of enough of the younger generation and they’ll carry the worldview you feed them for a lifetime.

They have done it over and over again. This is not Israel’s first attempt at wiping out an entire Pestinian city yet most people acted as if it is and stayed silent for literal years.
They have enough money and friends in high places to recover from this, unfortunately, and they’ll keep doing it until Palestine is no more.
And they won’t stop there either. We’re talking about a country that repeatedly invaded all of its neighbors. They won’t stop there.
