It seems to me that Bibi is perfectly fine with "postponing the ground operation". If he can keep up dropping 10k bombs a week on the strip, soon there'll be nothing left but a pile of rubble and corpses. Why would he send in the untrained ground troops when bombing the place works so much better?
So far the international community seems to be a-okay with it as well, as they are warning much more strongly against an invasion, as they do against the carpet bombing. Hezobollah didn't say they would get involved if the carpet bombing would continue did they, nor did Iran. Or any other of Palestines "allies". Or the UN. They're all angry, but nobody seriously does anything. In the mean time, 10k bombs a week on an area the size of a poststamp.
And then there's the water, or, no water, for what, eight days now?
By the way, the easiest way to make sure there aren't going to be more of those heartwrenching videos of wounded Palestinian children in hospitals posted all over social media is to bomb the hospitals.
