There's a rationale...
They want to kill as many Palestinians as they can.
And they know shit like this just creates the next generation of Hamas. So Israel gets to keep doing this for decades. The worst thing that can happen to Netanyahu and his party is lasting peace.
Before 10/7 there had been talks for months about how he was going to lose power.
How convenient for him, for a massive tragedy to occur which rallys the citizens together towards his cause, just as his rule was about to end.
It ain't just convenient, israeli intelligence ignored Egypt's calls that Hamas was about to do something big, and just let the attack happen because it's good news. They sensationalise the attack, then use that to justify a genocide and bombing hospitals.
