I was listening to Matt Bracken on Rumble, and Matt brought up point I had not considered.
Israel just demonstrated a capability that should make all of us pay attention: the state use of wireless devices to execute a mass time on target attack.
What if, in the future, someone does this to cell phones of MAGA voters? Or, to get at Elon Musk, they do this to Tesla cars?
Hezbollah didn't buy pagers from Pagie Blowstein, the shipment was intercepted.

Say what you will about the NYT generally, but I don't think they have incentive to make that one up. If anything it makes The Tribe look worse
That's one theory. Could be a lot of things. If they'll taint someone else's products there's nothing to say the stuff they make is safe either.
Yeah, it seems that the new info claims they didn't just intercept, they MADE them from the get go and were involved in basically every step of the production and distribution (though they bought the license and blueprints).
What matters is Israel had control over these products at some point and planted explosives.
They have control over any product originating from their country, so anything you buy from them might explode.
If you knew your iPhone was intercepted in shipment by Israel then that's another and even more reason to reject delivery of it.
