The operation in Gaza required immediate foresight. No internal or external actor appears as an alternative to it. There's no public outcry against Hamas, which continues to demonstrate adaptability and resilience in both governance and military capabilities, allowing it to survive and maintain influence across Gaza. A fourth gap pertains to the post-war period, particularly ideas surrounding a new order, about which it's unclear whether critical discussions are being held. Recently, reports emerged of a plan to promote cooperation with local clans in Gaza in hopes they could become a viable alternative to Hamas, particularly regarding the distribution of humanitarian aid.
