Seems almost inevitable at this point but with the lack of informing in and out of gaza it seems unlikely we’ll ever know for sure.

Yeah. You can kind of tell that Israel has been using this as an excuse to launch offensive action against anyone, which is leaving Hamas confused as they thought they would have some leverage in negotiating a hostage crisis.
Although I don’t know what Hamas was thinking doing this. Israel has had a history of turning a defensive war into offensive action.
Hamas was thinking they would damage Israel, and they have. Look at all the settlers leaving the country saying they won’t return. Look at the uprising in sympathy across the arab world. Israel’s cooperation with Muslim nations is now in serious question. Bombing and indiscriminate killing of Palestinians by IOF and settlers wasn’t going to stop if Hamas hadn’t done this. The only way to stop the IOF and settlers from persecuting Palestinians is an aggressive, militant response.
It is showing too. There is overwhelming popular support while western media is trying to silence sympathetic stories and demonize resistance. It’s the exact same thing at play during the BLM protests a couple years ago.
Every one of these struggles, land back, BLM, Palestinian resistance, are all part of the same struggle at various degrees of intensity.
