A senior Hamas official told the New York Times last week that he would not have supported the October 7, 2023, terror attack against Israel if he had known the outcome — the destruction of Hamas and the devastation of Gaza.
The Times reported Monday:
Mousa Abu Marzouk, the Qatar-based head of Hamas’s foreign relations office, said in an interview with The New York Times that he would not have supported the attack if he had known of the havoc it would wreak on Gaza. Knowing of the consequences, he said, would have made it “impossible” for him to back the assault

He only regrets the political outcome, not the loss of Israeli life.

What did you think was going to happen? Israel would apologize for existing and all the Jews would walk into the ocean?

This is a perfect example of a people who cannot think beyond their hate! It is absolutely astounding that this fool had no idea what would happen when he and his brethren would kill men, women and children in the most horrible way imaginable! Islam is a demonic cult! Get it through your heads once and for all.

Let’s get wind of his next interview, and send the reporter a brand-new cell phone to take to the meeting.... we can kill two vultures with one phone.

So Sherlock ~ what did you think the outcome was going to be?? Did you expect NO RESPONSE to your savagery?? Or.....were you assured by someone in the biden "administration" possibly blinken or sullivan that Hamas would have some sort of US protection against retaliation?
Apparently Allah has been asleep at the wheel.

How is it the Palestinian leadership in Qatar haven't been eliminated? Supposedly they are hundred millionaires, maybe nearing billionaires, happily going about official government business living like royalty. Surely they are more fittingly offed than an inbred flunky hiding in a shell hole in Gaza.

I’m guessing that Adolf Hitler said something similar while hiding in his bunker with Ava in the closing days of WW2.

What did this stupid mother trucker think was going to happen?
They were going to parachute in kill, rape, and pillage, take hostages and Israel was going to turn the other cheek?
That is beyond stupid.

I have regrets that more of your kind were not killed. Your regret is that you did not cause Israel to her knees. Not what you did.

"I thought we could get away with rape, torture, and murder, even of children."
Yeah, like that is ever going to be acceptable to a civilized world.
I like Trump's idea. Israel deserves security. Raze Gaza and disperse the people that lived there to other places. The question is, who wants to live with a pack of rabid dogs?

What he's really saying is that he wouldn't have supported the October 7 massacre if he had known that Trump was going to win the election.

The horrific attack is not what he regrets.
The consequences to his organization is the only reason why he rethinks it.

He admitted as a Hamas leader that he supported the terrorist attack against Israel. That is not good for his health!

He expected, like always, Israel to bend under the pressure of the rest of the world and not wipe out Hamas.
He was wrong.

Miss Otis regrets ... she's unable to lunch today. Not good enough, Mousa. They're still coming for you. And they're going to get you. Your kind cannot be allowed to breathe the same air as good people. Dig a hole, bury yourself, wait for the drone, and for the extinction event. It's coming your way.

As #20 and #21 said.
He FA'd and then FO'd.
My guess is that while HAMAS is milking the hostage coverage, Israel is gathering information and doing the planning to finish the job.
