Extra: How Did Hamas Catch Israel Intelligence Off Guard?

Israel is warning that their effort to 'crush' Hamas will be 'lengthy' and 'lethal'. With their enemy hiding in the crowded streets and complex network of tunnels of Gaza, entering the city and eliminating the terrorists behind October 7th's brutal attack on their country will be a serious challenge. FOX News Contributor and retired CIA Clandestine Services officer Dan Hoffman recently joined host Dave Anthony to discuss those very challenges and why he believes this war will be very bloody. Hoffman described the dangers of urban warfare and fighting an enemy who is willing to use civilians as human shields. The former CIA officer was also blunt about why he was pessimistic about the fate of many of the hostage takes by Hamas. We made edits for time and thought you might like to hear our entire conversation with Dan Hoffman. On today's FOX News Rundown Extra, you'll hear even more of his expertise and why he thinks there were significant intelligence failures leading up to the deadly attacks on Israel earlier this month.
