Was this a US intel failure? Short thread I say this with no inside knowledge of our intelligence programs but US intel efforts, to include SIGINT and IMINT, are not all seeing eyes that suck up & process everything around the world. These are, like everything else, prioritized

So before you conclude this was a *US* intelligence failure, think a bit more about where Gaza/Hamas ranks as a priority for US national intelligence assets and analysis. The answer is probably "not high on the list." And that's as it should be.
