**Hamas Objectives Behind October 7th Operation. Bad marketing. **

Hamas conducted the October 7th operation in a barbaric and ghoulish manner, aiming to provoke Israel into a response. They used psychological warfare and strategically exposed Palestinian civilians to casualties to further their narrative. The operation's objectives were to inflict damage on Jews, gain global empathy for Gaza's struggles, and incite a multi-front war. While they succeeded in gaining some sympathy globally, their attempts to spark a wider conflict among Arab nations failed. The operation highlighted the recognition across Arab nations of Hamas' role in chaos and violence. Despite their efforts, Hamas fell short of their goal for a multi-front war, indicating a miscalculation in their strategic planning.
