Primary Objective cost

If I play Primary Objective with less than seven cards in hand, do I still discard my hand and select a soul?

Primary Objective-
If making a rescue attempt, discard hand (minimum 7 cards) and select a lost soul in opponent’s Land of Bondage. Opponent must discard hand or holder rescues that lost soul. Battle continues as a battle challenge.

It said it have to be minimum 7 cards. So if your hand is less than 7 cards then it shouldn't work. Thanks.

 +1. Seems like that would be the case. I think you could still discard your hand, but there really is no point to that.

I may even argue that you can't even discard your hand at all unless it has at least seven cards.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

That's what I was thinking too, but I wasn't sure.

Wasn't there a ruling saying that if the card's targets a specific target, but if the target is unavailable, that ability does not trigger? So therefore, Primary Objective first targets the owner's hand which is "minimum of 7 cards", if you don't even have that, then you cannot even discard your entire hand.
