This is definitely one of the most interesting attacks that’s ever happened. It certainly doesn’t look like an accident. If it was indeed Mossad: take a bow, you’ve earned it. That was a pretty slick move. That was probably a difficult op to pull off. Gotta respect the craft, even if you disagree on the method.
How exactly did they pull that off? And with walkie-talkies too. There's no way you can do that with normal RF. The only thing I can figure is they had to intercept the devices and tamper with them in some way.
