This is bullshit.
I asked someone I know, who has literally spent the last few years on the conference circuit talking about their cancer early signifier breakthrough, when I first saw an article on this over a week ago. Obviously I didn't mention the Iran missle part. They didn't know of anything particularly impressive or news worthy that had come out of Israel or really in general for over a year.
Posting this made me want to confirm that after dismissing it before, so I checked. There are dozens of articles, often featuring near identical wording, all pushed on the same day June 27th. There are no other even vaguely relevant news (including medical news) even discussing the possibility of an actual breakthrough compared to what's commonly available before that. In fact you have to go back years to get any even vaguely keyword relevent articles.
This is fucking desperate. Maybe it'll work on a couple of pop-sci Reddit libs who are already pretty pro-Israel, but no one else is going to buy this. Most people will simply go "yeah, right!". And anyone in an even vaguely scientific field will know it's bullshit for the same reason my friend did (and he did it without the Iran missile context).
If anything, blasting across media that you totally had a super secret miracle breakthrough but can't prove any aspect of it is only going to make the international scientific and academic community extra wary of anything you claim in the future. Isreal is fucking it's own reputation her with the people that actually matter in this space. It's pathetic and desperate.
it was all on one usb. and the methodology was so complicated they can't replicate it ever again
It was also written in a forgotten language and had to be read through a stone. Which was also destroyed. Sad. 😔
The stone was promised to them and Iran destroyed it. Extra sad 😭
I don't think Iran did this, I think it was the Mormons upset someone else was entering their turf
It's interesting to watch how western propaganda has kind of slipped more and more in recent years. I think the Ukraine war stuff was far more successful than they had ever dreamed it could be, and so they've just kind of decided that they don't need to improve or up their game after that, just do more "greatest hits" type stuff. If they end up in an actual "boots on the ground" conflict with Iran, there'll be a "ghost of Tel-Aviv" and stories about old ladies destroying Iranian drones with pickle jars.
Propaganda strategy now increasing works on a 'flood the zone' mentality. There's too much information with the internet not just allowing but incentivising alternate media, the content economy, engagement farming etc to try and carefully control information.
So instead the strategy is the open all the taps on every pipe and spew as much sewage into the sphere as possible, while using the media-political establishment to relentlessly harras, smear, and victimise anyone on the other side of your issue.
It's a strategy the British state-media establishment basically perfected 35-45 years ago and the internet just supercharged the amount of bandwidth you have to fill, but also the ease of doing it.
There are of course highly specific and more insidious propaganda projects and psychological operations directed at high value groups or individuals of course, but for the most part it's a wall of noise, repeatition, and relentlessly attacking individuals to create a chilling effect.
And at the same time, deliberately ensuring their working class citizens don't have access to proper understandings of materialism and critical thinking skills ensures they have no way to accurately gauge the flood of information, so they just choose whatever answers feel good or familiar, which just so happen to be the ones most supporting the status quo. Some people don't fall for that of course, but most of those people will fumble blindly in the flood of information and are just as likely to find something toxic and dangerous (like far right ideologies).
I fucking love science will post some sad "being over war" stance whilst trafficking more propaganda for the west.
My dumbass parents will absolutely fall for this, hook line and sinker
