What was Hamas thinking when they attacked Israel?


Israel has one on the most powerful militaries in the world so why did Hamas attack Israel? What is Hamas' endgame?

reply

Better question is how did it happen.

reply

Israel was ill-prepared and distracted by unrest in the West Bank and in the north by Hezbollah.

reply

I knew how it would go immediately upon it happening.

Hamas would quickly lose. THe isrealis would crush them.

Hamas would whine like faggots to their allies in the western media about how mean the jews were being and their allies would relay that to their moronic readers/listeners.

And slowly support for isreal would be undermined, and support for the genocidal terrorists would grow.

As we gave seen,

terrorists are running an effective social media campaign, which is being used to recruit more terrorists. until all the civilized countries in the world unite. terrorists will continue to exist.

good question robo. I have no idea, certainly they knew Israel would strike back. maybe they are using it to create chaos in America and abroad. maybe they are using it as a recruitment tool for more terrorists.

Hamas was thinking suicide when they attacked Israel. Hatred of Jews, blood-lust, revenge for stolen/occupied land and Islamic extremism are too blame. Gaza signed their death sentence on Oct. 7th.

Hamas is fed data on the worldwide Islamic Jihad movement by Iran.
Jihadi operatives, or friendlies, have infiltrated into a lot of UN agencies,
and the majority of college endowment funds, over 50% come from
countries in the region. Plus there is all the immigration into the EU
states, and especially a lot in Canada as we can all see from the news.

The Western hopeful delusion that modernism would catch up with
Islamic society has been proven wrong in spades, and further analysis
proves that their walled off societies and taboos against interacting with
non-Mulims will maintain the hostility and brainwashing of these societies.

Palstinians, the Taliban and ISIS are models for this kind of suicidal death
cult best described by the son of the terrorist who started Hamas - Mosab
Hasan Yousef. He has a very compelling life and story - he is the real thing.

Mathematically there is no way the West can surive the out-breeding from
these groups, and their aggressive social and political operations - because
the West will not see the threat for what it is and will fail to do what is
needed to end it - as they are working to try to stop Israel from doing the
one thing that will end the threat from Hamas, or rather has the chance to
end the threat from Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad, and frankly the
brainwashing average Palestinian Muslim citizens receive.

"powerful militaries"

No, it doesn't! Israelis have always relied on a global supepower to help them steal Palestinian land. First, Britain and now the United States.

If the U.S. hadn't shot down Iran's incoming missiles recently, Israel would've looked like Swiss cheese.

Hamas, like all Palestinians, wants an end to Israel's war crimes, human rights violations, illegal occupation, blockades, open air prison, apartheid system, systemic discrimination, incremental genocide, ethnic cleansing, arrests and imprisonment without charges nor evidence for starters.

reply

Hamas' blood thirsty terrorists attacking and slaughtering unarmed Israeli citizens (not to mention, cheering and parading the body of a dead Israeli girl around the streets of Gaza) was not the way to do it, all that did was make matters way worse for Palestinians.

reply

Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders have supported "Hamas' blood thirsty terrorists" since their inception.

Netanyahu and Israeli defenses allowed Hamas to attack. They refused to act on any warnings or Intelligence.

Netanyahu and Israeli defenses refused to help any Israelis for 6+ hours.

Majority of the dead were soldiers or police, not unarmed civilians. Furthermore, Israeli defenses accidentally killed some civilians during rescue attempt.

Netanyahu and extremist right-wing rejoice since they get to ethnic cleanse and commit genocide in Gaza which has been their goal for decades.

War never ended. It has been ongoing since 1948. Google "mowing the lawn" in reference to Israel.

"not the way to do it"

How do the Palestinians end Israeli tyranny? Zionists made it clear that they want ALL Palestinian land without any Palestinians aka: settler colonialism aka: ethnic cleansing. Read the speeches and interviews from Israel's founders!

Palestinians have lived there for thousands of years. European colonizers from mainly Russia, Poland, Germany and Ukraine had no right to force 750,000 Palestinians from their homeland in 1948. Israel also destabilized the region which harmed Mizrahi Jews and Christians in the region.

I disagree that it's worse for Palestinians who have suffered nonstop since 1948. More people globally are aware of their suffering. The U.S. is the last country supporting Israel and that will eventually end forcing Israel to create a 2-state solution or 1-state with equal rights for all instead of religion-based discrimination by Israel.

Now, is the time to educate yourself about what's really happening. Read "Ten Myths about Israel" by Israeli historian Ilan Pappe.

The U.S. shot down Iran's incoming missiles??

Jeez, how gullible can one person be?

"The U.S. military shot down dozens of missiles and drones Saturday that were fired at Israel from Iran and its proxy forces in Iraq, Syria and Yemen."
