The real story here is that the targets appeared to know the US was coming for them (and that's not my speculation. those involved have said as much to the media). Someone from within the government may have leaked the plans to the bad guys. I would guess it was an Obama loyalist working (possibly with a group) to undermine Trump's presidency.

No it wasn't. Yes they wanted a moonlight night, but it was also on hold by Obama due to wanting more intel. There was not a go ahead from Obama on the next moon lit night it was on hold due to lack of intel.
Obama may or may not have run the operation on the next moon lit night, but it's certainly wasn't given the prior go ahead.
