It’s not that he wanted this particular attack to happen (this article doesn’t prove that, as you said). It’s that he’s been allowing Qatari money to flow into Gaza, knowing full well it’s Hamas getting it. As for the fact that Netanyahu wanted to do warcrimes… Well just look at what he and his cabinet say.
Netanyahu didn’t just let the attacks happen, we also know he funded Hamas
Objectively false, you can’t dispute that.
Also, even if it was the only distortion, “funded” vs “allowed” mean completely different things, even in that specific context. I’m not being pedantic either; words mean things, especially in such a complex situation.
To be clear, I’m not fully on either side because both Hamas and Israel have done horrible things. But your “oversimplification” is really misinformation and has to be called out as such.
HAMAS is the ruling Palestinian party in the Gaza strip. If Netanyahu didn’t allow money to pass over the border into Gaza, everyone here would be frothing at the mouth that Israel isn’t allowing money into Gaza to fund hospitals! I’m not defending Netanyahu… but I don’t see a situation that couldn’t be spun against Israel.

Funded versus allowed, I oversimplified maybe but to a statesman it amounts to the same thing imo.
