American major mistake revealed in Rafa Operation

The U.S. administration's pressure on Israel inadvertently provided Hamas with the opportunity to sustain itself, counter to their intended goals. An instance of this misunderstanding was highlighted during a meeting between U.S. and Israeli National Security Councils, where American officials asserted that an Israeli operation in Rafah would take four months to facilitate the movement of civilians. However, the actual operation was completed in 12 days, raising questions about the accuracy and understanding within U.S. strategic circles. This discrepancy suggests a fundamental disconnect regarding the scale and complexities of the situation, particularly regarding the geographical reality of Rafah, which spans only five square miles.
