Military intelligence is much an art as a science. Technology can only provide so much information, it usually requires humans on the ground to sniff out stuff the enemy is trying to keep secret.
Can you imagine anyone in Gaza willing to spy for Israel? Can you imagine an Israeli sneaking about in Gaza?
The biggest failure (as I see it from all the way around the world) is allowing civilians to be so close to the border.
I would like to believe Israel has learn from this experience.
They need to be shooting seismic lines and using ground penetrating radar to reveal the whole system!

Nobody missed anything. This was well known in advance. They let this all take place.
in order to be able to obliterate your enemy, you first have to let them beat you a little...
Mossad/Intelligence must have a new meaning for complacent, the US does the same thing.
Mathias Döpfner, the CEO of Axel Springer, a German publishing and media firm acquired Politico for over $1 billion in October 2021. The new owners plan to add staff and put the publication's news content behind a paywall. Döpfner's global ambitions include becoming the leading digital publisher in democracies around the world. He was drawn to Politico's profitable subscription service Politico Pro, which covers in-depth political and regulatory machinations for a specialty audience of inside-the-Beltway and business readers. Döpfner's previous overtures to buy the company had been rebuffed, but he agreed to sell after learning that Axel Springer was also courting Axios, a Politico rival started by Politico defectors. Döpfner believes that journalism has a bright future if we get some things right.
I looked, because they seem to be on the side of Israel, which is odd for what I consider to be a liberal outlet of fake news, more often than not.
Once this war is over Bibi needs to fire all the senior leadership of his intelligence services.
All of them.

Qatar bankrolled Hamas before October 7th and Netanyahu allowed it that’s for sure.
It was done to maintain peace just like the CIA figured Al Qaeda followers could be used to overthrow Assad in Syria.
But it blew up in Israel’s face.
Before the attack came down some warned in the Israeli intelligence-military community others ignored warnings.
Who knows maybe folks on the morning of October 7th watched porn videos more than the border surveillance cameras and missed the assault.
Articles such as these intimate that Israel knew and wanted a massacre so that they had reason to militarily destroy GAZA.
More grist for the conspiracy nuts.
