Rome and CarthageRome and Carthage
Carthage was a powerful city state empire in the period before the first Punic War and also in the 2nd Punic War. Although they often had Carthage born military commanders such as Hannibal and Hamilcar, the military consisted of paid mercenary soldiers and commanders. This type of military had no particular loyalty to Carthage other than that they were paid to fight. If Carthage did not meet the pay demands or the army deserted rather then be captured by Romans, Carthage was always in a situation where their soldiers would desert.

And Carthage must be destroyed.
A powerful Carthage was a threat to Rome's access to the western Mediterranean Sea. Carthage had valuable resources in Spain which Rome wanted access to. Rome also wanted to crush the allies that Carthage had in the Mediterranean Sea area. Her wealth and navy & army could always be a threat to Rome. Thus Rome destroyed Carthage in the Third Punic War.

Roman Cato the Elder.
While Hannibal's plan did allow him to bypass the Roman army and sack the city of Rome itself, Carthage did ultimate lose the war. It's impossible to know if there was anything that Hannibal could have done "better." It's entirely possible that Rome was always going to win the war no matter what Carthage did, simply because they were so much bigger and more powerful that Carthage had no chance to defeat them. The fact that they prevailed in spite of the capital being sacked certainly adds credence to that argument. One should also note that following the war the Romans destroyed Carthage completely. They did not subjugate it or add it to the empire, but wiped it out of existence. You could, again, argue that they would have done that no matter what, but you could also make the case that they destroyed Carthage because of Hannibal's attack on the city of Rome. If you take those views together, then it was certainly a bad idea, and in the long run only provoked the Romans into even greater reprisals against Carthage. Had Hannibal fought a conventional war then he would still have lost, but the Romans might not have destroyed Carthage completely after their victory.
They were establishing control in part of Spain which embroiled Carthage with Rome, which had earlier defeated it, and there was mixed support for reactivating war.
