Oct 7 was a collective action by the elected gov’t of Hamas against Israel. The taking of hostages who are placed in underground tunnels is not only a crime against the individual hostages as individuals, but meant as psychological torture to all of Israel collectively. Palestinian leaders speak about regret of Oct 7, because of the negative consequences, not because of morality. Proportionality should not be an argument because there are a disproportionate amount of Palestinians being demanded for each Israeli hostage. Therefore, Israeli actions which are collective and cause negative consequences should not be frowned upon, because that is the only language that Palestinians speak and understand. If conditions are too difficult in Gaza, the Trump relocation plan will help Palestinians relocate and live better in a place where they cannot plot to kill Israelis.
