Rather obvious why American Intel missed the hamas attack

I'm not convinced that American intel didn't know about the attack.
 
Actually, there was a very good article in The Tablet (A pro-zionist publication) that stated that the Israeli government had reached kind of accommodation with Hamas in exchange for Hamas giving them actionable intel on groups like Islamic Jihad.



In recent months Hamas refused to join the much smaller Islamic Jihad in launching rockets against Israel, which seems to have convinced Israeli leaders that, at long last, the leading terror group in Gaza had decided to prioritize the welfare of its subjects over more futile rocket attacks.

Israel promptly reciprocated the de facto Hamas ceasefire by allowing thousands of Gazans to work in Israel—first 17,000, then 20,000, with the potential for many more. Their earnings were changing the lives of 100,000 family members with the possibility of even wider benefits. What was happening on the ground seemed to open a path toward tranquility for Israel and a degree of prosperity for Gaza.
