Yeah Israel would rather sit on the sidelines but that won't happen. Already the US and Israel are easing sanctions to prop up the Fatah against Hamas. Given that, IMO, in the near future Hamas is going to start trying to draw Israel into the conflict. But I am by no means an expert on the middle east and prefer it that way. I wish our government preferred it that way as well.
