They're not made by Motorola (which is Chinese). They were made by Gold Apollo (which is Taiwanese).

To be specific, the original Motorola company split into Motorola Mobility, which is owned by Lenovo and sells phones, and Motorola Solutions, which is American, sells telecommunications systems, and definitely does work with Israel.

This was a really hard lesson for Hezbollah to learn to always buy shit from certified anti-imperialist sources and not from fake China. China should airlift Huawei devices to Hezbollah to replace them.

On the other hand, the Axis of Resistance has never had a better excuse to annihilate Israel in response.

It was made in Europe, not Taiwan. Also, the KMT doesn't represent Taiwan. They are literally immigrants to Taiwan and are referred to as such there.
