Operation Narnia: Iran’s nuclear scientists reportedly killed simultaneously using special weapon

  • Israel had been tracking Iranian nuclear scientists for years and the ten killed last week were marked for assassination in November of last year, Channel 12 says.

    This bit stood out to me. Israel has been planning this war since at least November of last year. Israel's current actions say this wasn't a simple "what if..." contingency plan that a government comes up with. This was a plan they were going to put into action soon. Makes it even more disgusting to me.

    I mean, that's not really surprising. Every military makes plans for any contingency, and Israel especially has always been paranoid about Iran's nuclear programme, so of course they would make sure they're tracking the scientists in case they needed to make a move.

    The disgusting part is them just pulling the trigger for political reasons instead of actual intelligence that indicates a breakout. And obviously killing civilians, which the scientists and their families are, but obviously Israel has shown in the past they don't care about that.

  • The nuclear scientists were killed using a special weapon whose details were barred from publication, Channel 12 says.

    The 10th nuclear scientist was killed shortly after the other nine, as part of the overnight Thursday-Friday Israeli operation, which included strikes on Iran’s ballistic missile program and the Natanz nuclear site, along with the elimination of top members of the Islamic Republic’s military leadership, the network says.

    The nuclear scientists were all killed while they were sleeping in their beds, with Israel deciding to carry out the assassinations simultaneously so that there wouldn’t be time to tip off those being targeted.

    The scientists apparently believed they were safe from such targeting in their homes, a senior Israeli official tells Channel 12, noting that previously assassinated nuclear scientists were killed while heading to their cars after work.

    How Israel Uses AI in Gaza—And What It Might Mean for the Future of Warfare:

    A program known as “The Gospel” generates suggestions for buildings and structures militants may be operating in. “Lavender” is programmed to identify suspected members of Hamas and other armed groups for assassination, from commanders all the way down to foot soldiers. “Where’s Daddy?” reportedly follows their movements by tracking their phones in order to target them—often to their homes, where their presence is regarded as confirmation of their identity. The air strike that follows might kill everyone in the target's family, if not everyone in the apartment building.

    Abraham, whose report relies on conversations with six Israeli intelligence officers with first-hand experience in Gaza operations after Oct. 7, quoted targeting officers as saying they found themselves deferring to the Lavender program, despite knowing that it produces incorrect targeting suggestions in roughly 10% of cases.

    It's time to stop believing the lies of Israel's might.

    They assassinated people in Tehran, they don't have a special weapon that killed all of them simultaneously. The same lies about "special systems" like the iron dome being impenetrable has been their tactic to ensure pressure on their states.

  • How is this all normal and ok?

    they have been doing this for decades, even to the point clandestine type novel stories are often written about them.

  • When Gandalf learns that Saruman is using one of the Lost Seeing Stones, his first instinct is mistrust and suspicion.

    Thiel is totally obsessed with lotr, but with a warped sense of what they represent. he also named companies after mithril, lembas, anduril,,,etc.

    netanyahu is using the aggression as a way to stave off his own criminal trials prior to him being re-elected.

  • ok if there are actual Jewish space lasers I'm fucking done with this reality.

    they arnt getting the ion cannon network.

  • My bet is on small assassination drone. People like having windows in their bedroom. Small drone flies to house, has some mechanism to break window, then blows up once inside the bedroom.

    I bet it’s unpublished not because its technology of any particularly impressive degree. Its unpublished because everyday people could easily design the same thing with enough minor technical expertise. They train cadets at West Point to build this exact type of shit out of consumer goods for a reason

    Could also be unpublished because the method was absolutly inhumane.

    Special weapon won't save them in a long war with Iran. Which is why they want US involvement

    Every military makes plans for any contingency,

    In defense, to respond to an attack.
    The word contingency is important.

    If the military is planning acts of aggression then that is called preparing for war.

    Exactly, they didn't just kill an individual, they bombed the whole building/block the individual was in - my personal believe.

    Yeah, that's definitely true for imperialist countries like Israel, the US and Russia.

    Marking people for assassination looks normal to the times of Israel. Nice people.

  • israel and the us all deserve the nuremberg treatment for their crimes

    The Nuremberg trials were a media propaganda circus.
    Exactly SIX nazis got the death penalty.
    The US/UK did everything they could to help the fascists escape and save them from the Soviets, rehabilitate them and keep their power.

    They have been bombing Iran for years, OC these lunatics had these plans already.

  • Exactly, they didn't just kill an individual, they bombed the whole building/block the individual was in - my personal believe.

    How would the methodology of the assassination be secret if they had bombed an entire apartment block? Also bombing innocent lives isnt something the Israeli government tends to be concerned about hiding

    Could you please kill the leaders instead? Of Israel too?

  • Cell phones exploding?

    I'm guessing it's witheld from publication because they are explicit US tech (eg Predator drones) that has been used to strike whole apartment buildings just to take out (possibly, if the intel is even correct) one scientist. Would look really bad when the US is still pretending they're not really part of the conflict.

  • It's time to stop believing the lies of Israel's might.

    They assassinated people in Tehran, they don't have a special weapon that killed all of them simultaneously. The same lies about "special systems" like the iron dome being impenetrable has been their tactic to ensure pressure on their states.

    Special systems = indiscriminate bombing of residential building at night to maximize civilians murdered

  • It would take one phone call from the President, and the genocide would stop. Biden could have done it, and Trump still can. I don’t see the US governments unwavering support of Israel ever ending.

    Bullshit

    Ye-es, and if you call your automation "industrial planning\programming\optimization" the way I've seen it first in a student book, you won't be understood at all, despite that literally describing what you are doing. Probably making every piece of progress part of popular culture wasn't a good idea. But that started in the middle of XX century, with various new materials based on oil products being regularly invented. Events analogous to a "new material" with computers are a bit rare and very removed from the customer. Yet the popular culture demands some show of progress. They don't see a lot of real progress in UI\UX\web - monopolies and stuff. So - new applications become subjects of such hype. I remember the P2P hype, that was kinda real. Torrents felt like magic. I remember the "metaverse" hype, that's rather old, I didn't find any satisfaction for that, but probably a group of friends and a Second Life instance could be nice. Minecraft suffices for people today, it's easier and cool enough. I also remember "dynamic web" hype in my childhood, webpages were static, you'd press F5 to check new posts on a roleplaying forum. But there were nice-looking, dynamic, cool, and very inconvenient Flash applications here and there. You wanted to have both the cleanness and interop of the Web and the power and wow-factor of such applications. I wanted that too. Now I understand how dumb I was. The cryptocurrencies hype - it was a legitimate subject of discussions for intelligent people, how do you use cryptography to create a value exchange resilient to oppression, because without exchanging real value freedom is not achievable. That was, unfortunately, in the narrow understanding of the rules where the government can demand something from you, but can't force you or torture you or steal from you. Thus BTC is not anonymous, intentionally. There was simultaneously the big data hype, it was discussed as if it's not Google's and FB's pathway to power, but the opposite - finding systemic traits in human societies, probably using that analysis to build a better web, yadda-yadda. Then that mutated to the AI hype. But that also wasn't about yelling "we found AI, give us money", that was about neural nets yielding funny texts and discussions as to whether good enough imitation is real intelligence. Almost like fashion.

    It has their name and where it came from so. Yes? That's not what I asked. Are you expecting people to direct link everything even when it is already atributed? I mean is that really too much to expect of people? To simply copy the link where they found the information and post it along with where they shared it?
