If you click on the link in the post above, then you will see that they specifically talk about war to be called “Israel-Gasa”, not “Israel-Palestinian” war to avoid confusion with Palestinian Authority. Such titles are click-bates.
Such raids Israel was doing well before the war. Israel also does not have a goal to destroy the Palestinian Authority. You are twisting facts here. Precisely because of such statements the journalists are given instructions NOT TO DO THAT.
What facts did I twist? Because all I said was that the war has expanded to beyond Gaza to the West Bank whether their goal is to destroy the PA or not. I’m not even sure why not having that goal means the war can’t expand into the West Bank. Are you under the strange misapprehension that every war is about regime change?
It seems to me that calling it the Israel-Gaza war when it isn’t just in Israel and Gaza is a twisting of facts. Even Wikipedia has the sense to call it the Israel-Hamas war since at least Israel claims that’s who they’re at war against (I would argue that is also false). And let’s say that’s true. Why can’t Hamas members be in the West Bank?
Was America at war with Pakistan when it killed Bin Laden in Pakistan during the “Great War on Terror?”
I would not call it peace, I would call it occupation. And it is absolutely expected increase of activities there when something is happening in Gaza. That was true the last time Israel had excursion into Gaza, it is true now. But it is absolutely dishonest to call it the war with Palestine. Israel does not have goal to dismiss the Palestinian Authority, does not try to attack the officials or government buildings of the Palestinian Authority, and Palestinian Authority does not use any paramilitary forces to fight Israel. Calling it a war with Palestine is simply false and is anti-Israel propaganda in my opinion.
As for your question - it does not matter if it is 5 or 35 or 3005 times those raids happen. Weather it is a war or not is not defined by the number of raids, but by what I have discussed above.

I admit I did not click through, but the war has expanded beyond Gaza, so calling it the Israel-Palestinian war makes sense.

Also, my link was one example. There have been plenty of others.

Calling this Israili-Palistinian war is twisting facts. There are also shorts traded with Hezbollah, so, let’s call it Israeli Lebanon/Iranian war.
Shots traded is not the same thing as multiple incursions.
How many military operations do there have to be in the West Bank for it to not make sense to call it the “Israel-Gaza War?”
You understand that West Bank is occupied by Israel for many years and they do these raids for many years (decades even), right?
You didn’t answer my question.
Also, from the link I pasted that you obviously ignored:
And yet the war is only in Gaza.
Weird kind of peace.
