During my Friday evening drinking sessions with my pals, during the "world affairs" discussion period (between the football and complaining about the wives), I would often say that WW3 would not actually involve soldiers and weapons as we know it, but that China would simply send the command to close down all of the Huawei Routers, and disable all of the Electric Vehicles. I am now beginning to feel like I may have 'special powers"
That and if it would have been smartphones i can see how an mod on kernel level that can circumvent all soc and other os protections would work, however pagers dont have that much advanced electronics in them. What we now know is that they added eplosives and a detonation devices triggered by the number message etc. (en than shorting the battery thus creating the detonation.
Agree on that last line, but sadly i think that died when Rabin was murdered they seem to be futher away from a peacefull soluttion than even if they did manage to remove Hamas and proxies fully.
Isreal has much more off it's own advanced hardware then Ukraine, that's why they also supply the west so you're ''UK/USA'' are still backing them logic is flawed, not to say they are still backed but that's also because it's a bit of a be dammned if you do, be dammed if you don't situation. The only one benefitting from something like that would be Iran, whom in turn most likely mess it up because of they sovjet area launchers are not exactly precise.
Shifting alliance is a very big step, i don't see the US or UK for that matter do that, but there are lots of steps they can take to let Isreal officially known ''we don't like you killing civilians.''
