    I’m not responding to you personally so much at responding in a communal thread to naive or incorrect points.

    Again, this shouldn’t exactly be new news at this point, as stories on topics like how revealing satellite imaging reveals state secrets have been mainstream stories before (i.e. https://www.forbes.com/sites/jonathanocallaghan/2019/09/01/trump-accidentally-revealed-the-amazing-resolution-of-u-s-spy-satellites/ ).

    But it’s less about trying to convince you personally that the idea USINT would release satellite images to back up claims by Israel is ridiculous, and more about providing the context for anyone else that follows on the conversations’ wake.

    If it was about you personally, I’d have direct messaged.

    And blocking people that disagree with points online is kind of puerile, so that’s not a place my mind ever went to.

    But feel free to block if you want. Again - it’s not about you.
