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.
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.
Just when I feel like dystopian news can't really disturb me anymore...
Leaving this totally unrelated article about Palantir and Israel here for absolutely no reason at all...
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.
How is this all normal and ok?
It's not normal. It's ok until the majority of America accepts what can really be done with that database Trump is having Palantir build.
i think the military has been using thiels palintir for at least 10 years already. TRump just made it more obvious, because hes a loudmouth. thiel loved to stay out of the spotlight of the news for many reasons. everytime he was in the news, its never is good for him.
Who's Palantir? I sort if live under a rock. Yes I looked it up. I'm asking for the general scoop.
Palantir, as you know is the all seeing stone in LOTR, THiel is obsessed with LOTR for the wrong reasons, he named several companies after lotr themes: MITHIRL, andurl, lembas,,,etc. Peter thiel is the funds behind AI tech that palantir uses, which is used by the military and now by Some LEO. basically a spying software with AI.
Can someone try blowing up their servers? That'd be nice.
The wrong Amazon is burning
More than just America need to stand against Israel.
Except we're the purse, so if we truly oppose it, we can easily make it stop.
Money won't stop a genocidal cult from nuking the planet.

Stopping the money and supply of arms sure might help.
Makes much more sense to stand up against Palantir!
The rogue state of Israel has immunity from the US and its satellites.
they have been doing this for decades, even to the point clandestine type novel stories are often written about them.
It's absolutely not okay, but since there will be no negative consequences for it whatsoever, it's the new normal. This is sadly what happens when laws are not enforced, and I'm not sure if anything even can be done anymore...
Don't worry. "Laws" are being enforced all the time. It's just not the ones that you imagine.
There's always something.
I hope so, I genuinely do.
It is “statistically” normal in that governments and corporations will always choose death because it is profitable.
It is not and never has been ok.
It should be normal. People helping an evil state get nukes, deserve to die. Unfortunately what's normal nowadays is sitting around fat and lazy and letting NK become a nuclear power.
The US gave Israel, an evil state, nuclear weapons. By your logic...
Just listen to NPR. It's all good!!! smh.

It is not.
And everyone in their family, building, and general vicinity, and anyone in that 10% of targets who are misidentified by Palantir's predictive policing/facial recognition tech apparently?
All's fair in love and war.
Europeans did the genocide and took over America, in a much larger scale. Israel is just a smaller copy cat. The fact USA exists justifies what Israel does.
Why not, "and genocide is wrong in both cases," rather than, "and thus they're both okay?"
Because USA will never admit its disgusting foundations on genocide, slavery, etc. They would rather jerk off dead enslavers and continue supporting genocide.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_religion
So the USA will never admit it, which somehow means you personally have to have a shitty view supporting genocide, too? I still don't understand the connection, because there isn't one.
No it doesn't.
Truth is hard to swallow. Regardless, people are dying anyway.
Apparently Israel's cock is not
Equating Israel to USA in its right to exist is not swallowing its cock.
They are right. Except one problem still can be solved, the other not so much. Maybe a few centuries after now somebody will think of something. Slow demographic changes and more modern weapons, that stuff.
Appreciate your optimism that Israel is a solvable problem.
Insane that there are people who actually believe this shit.
What part of that completely factual statement don't you believe?
