You can look at the original event and the way it was executed and say that yes it was planned that way and the response by the Israeli government was also predicted by Hamas and their handlers.
Israel responded as they always do - feet first , kill anything that moves and destroy everything. To me they fell right into the trap created by Hamas and Iran.
However my guess is that Hamas and Iran wanted the atrocities committed by Israel in Gaza to ignite the Arab world and bring down holy war on Israel. Fortunately that hasn’t happened - with most of the Arab world shaking their fists but not much else.
The events of Oct 7th committed by Hamas were evil, cruel, vile and subhuman and Israel had every right to respond but not to the extent they did. They have the resources to track down and kill everyone of the people involved in planning and executing the Oct 7th plan, instead they went full on wrath of god.
