- invalidname 3y agoI seriously doubt that's true. Huwawei has a deelopment center in Israel. Israeli media said that they were able to do it by concentrating everything on a need to know basis. Only used paper and in-person meetings to communicate. Since they knew Israel was listening the broadcast misleading information in digital form. The bottom line is that at some point a person in a room needs to decide if information is credible and how it fits into the narrative. Israeli intelligence just underestimated Hamas and didn't think this would happen.

Hamas isn't going to post these under "the official Hamas Facebook Business Page and Twitter account". The problem is more akin to "how could a social media network stop other people from sharing a screenshot of a deleted Trump tweet".
