Rape, kill and start a war in the process. I don't think they seriously understood the repercussions.
I think they did. Netenyaho and Israeli's generally hold 'eye for an eye' mantra as their beliefs.
Hamas knew exactly what would happen. Perhaps not on relentless scale, but they knew there'd be a very 'assertive' retaliation, and loss of innocents lives.
And guess what. Majority of Palestianians supported Hamas prior and that the attack was justifed... apparently.
As i've said before, its complex and I'm not saying Israel are an innocent party. From the little I know, they're as bad as each other. Obviously not saying its same scale, lol, but reminds of some relationships I've had with women, who can't accept any responsibility for contributing to issues, and more interested in blame/point scoring/coming out on top. Very immature imo... and leaves little hope for long term as not prepared to 'meet in the middle'/draw a line under things and recognize they are part of the problem.
I can certainly empathize and feel for anyone having land/homes taken away (post WW2...) ... as I imagine most would if they take a moment to think about it happening to them and their families.
But then others have alluded to this going back much further... as in centuries.
