They must have known Israel would retaliate heavily.

I wonder if their plan was to try and draw in other countries and create a large multi country war.

If so they seem to have failed.

Iran and Hamas just wanted to stop Saudi Arabia from establishing diplomatic ties with Israel, further marginalizing Iran in the region. They succeeded there, and the majority of the retribution fell on the citizens of Gaza.
Iran got everything they wanted and came out clean.

That was Hamas strategy for sure.

Iran won't join; Hezbollah will go in their stead.

Iran or Israel's plan? Iran is well known for enlisting terrorists to do their dirty work for them, and Israel is probably eyeing up some border territory they can grab.

Apparently the sentiment among settlers is that the "natural borders of the Jewish Homeland" extend from the Nile to the Euphrates.

You know, that famous Jewish city, Dubai.

I think this is something a lot of people don't realize. If Israel showed any weakness after the Hamas terrorist attacks, it is likely Iran, Lebanon, who else knows who, would attack as well.

Israel was put in an impossible situation and did what it had to do to protect itself.

Gaza has been under military occupation by Israel since 1970 (including after the disengagement in 2005; the blockade is very much a form of military occupation). Being attacked by the people you're occupying is the obvious outcome, setting aside the specific details of the attack because I know Hamas did some unspeakable things in Oct 7. If Israel wanted to protect themselves they'd stop their occupation of Palestine and retreat to 1967 borders.

Ironically enough, this is how they got the land in the first place; except they won so strongly they actually ended with more land than they started.
