I'm sure people are going to go ballistic (no pun intended) when I ask this question, but what exactly did Hamas hope to accomplish by the attacks on October 7th?
Was it a revenge attack for decades of oppression on the Palestinians?
Was it an attempt to start a war?
Was it an attempt to derail the normalization of relations between Israel and other Muslim Countries?
Netanyahu was like Tyson Fury on Saturday night and would likely have been removed from office. Why did they give him this lifeline ?
On a scale of 1-10 how did they think Israel would respond ? (1 being do nothing, 10 being dropping a nuke)
