Hamas says purpose of massacres was a ‘permanent’ state of war on Israel’s borders
As Israel is pressured to agree to pause in fighting, top officials in terror group laud ‘great act’ of Oct. 7 and say they never intended to ‘improve the situation in Gaza’

The goal of Hamas’s October 7 massacres in southern Israel was to “change the entire equation,” bring permanent war to Israel’s borders and renew attention to the Palestinian cause, a senior member of the terror group’s politburo in Qatar said.

“What could change the equation was a great act, and without a doubt, it was known that the reaction to this great act would be big,” Khalil al-Hayya told The New York Times in an interview published Wednesday. “We had to tell people that the Palestinian cause would not die.”

On the morning of Saturday, October 7, some 3,000 Hamas terrorists stormed through the border fence into Israel, killing 1,400 people, most of them civilians, and taking at least 240 hostages.

Apparently Iran and Hezbollah wanted to plan an attack later but Hamas jumped the gun and kind of blew the plan that they wanted to execute which is why both aren't willing to jump in for Hamas at the moment

I also think the last time that Hezbollah went around and around with the IDF that Hamas did not jump in so this may be a little bit of payback from what I've read in some articles.

But I think eventually they will all make a move on Israel like prophecy tells us.

ETA: Here's a link to the 2006 Lebanon war with little to no mention of Hamas joining it.

The cross border attack that started it is similar to October 7. But the 2006 Lebanon war did not have the amount of loss of life as October 7 did.
