:::The 2008-2009 Gaza War is actually called Gaza War by significant number of sources, while this conflict isn't often referred to as "(2014) Israel-Gaza conflict" outside of WP, so while it is a usable article title, it is not the actual name of the conflict so there is no need to force it into the first sentence. It is more often called by names like "Gaza War" or such, so if the article was renamed to "2014 Gaza War" it would lend itself far better to a lead similar to 2008-2009 Gaza War.
