October 7th either made them feel vulnerable after years of feeling invincible while faking it for victim points, or was an allowed event that backfired heavily
A bit of both, but I don't think it backfired per se, they just handled it horribly after the fact, and insisted like acting like fucking psychopaths.
October 7th didn't turn the world against Israel. Israel turned the world against Israel, by what they did, and how they did it.
Those are the two extremes, reality is probably somewhere in the middle but we will never truly know. Maybe their intelligence knew the attack was coming and just didn't prevent it to have their own 9/11 moment, maybe it truly was completely out of left field.
But either or, it caused a huge uprising against them because it gave a rallying moment for the pro-Palestine movement to erupt from. Before then, basically nobody talked about or cared about them.
Nothing Israel has actually done matters to those people. They hate them out of trained responses: "white", colonizers, successful, fighting browns, fighting Muslims, etc.
Everything I’ve heard and read suggests that October 7th was allowed to happen, chief being no warnings from Mossad, the IDF being pulled back further than normal and moving the concert close to the border.
Yeah that's a lot of what I heard as well, but I don't like making definitive beliefs on these things because the waters get so murky that its impossible to tell your ass from your elbow in it.

I could buy it also just being Mossad heard about it and let it happen.
