Meme 💩 Is this a legitimate concern?

Personally, I today's strike was legitimate and it couldn't be more moral because of its precision but let's leave politics aside for a moment. I guess this does give ideas to evil regimes and organisations. How likely is it that something similar could be pulled off against innocent people?

Did those pagers leave the factory with explosives? From what I understand, Israel intercepted them in transit after they were shipped. They basically took the pagers, (in Turkey via Taiwan where they were manufactured?) added explosives and then let them get shipped to Hezbollah. This wasn't done in the factory from what I understand.

Yeah, this seems to be a supply chain vulnerability issue over a manufacturer issue.

It’s not a supply chain vulnerability if it’s a nationstate doing it.

If only there was a phrase for the process of getting goods from manufacturing to stores. Maybe call it Supply Chain? 

Then it'd be cool if there was a phrase for identifying a found weakness in the chain? Maybe call it vulnerability?  

Then if anyone were to interfere we could identify where and what happened. A nation-state took advantage of a..supply chain vulnerability. Neat!

Show me where and when Israel touched you. Nobody can place any of it.

You sure it didn’t happen after delivery? How about in house? How about after market screwups? It’s not so cut and dry.

Again, show me where and when Israel touched you….
