Snowden points out that Israel did indeed have a hand in the production of the implicated pagers, and this "intercept supply chain" operation had been in the works for at least 15 years. This source further claims that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) of the United States was also involved in this action, describing it as a "highly sophisticated and covert" operation because it had to be carried out without the knowledge of the pager company. With this level of sophistication, one needs to have sufficient intelligence beforehand to know that Hezbollah is purchasing hundreds or even thousands of pagers, and you must be able to locate them. It seems that only Mossad, Israel's intelligence agency, could not have done this alone, the CIA must have been involved in this operation as well. Soon after, Snowden posted another tweet, attaching what he claims are photos from the "mass surveillance program exposed in 2013" by the National Security Agency (NSA). "These photos reveal how the NSA meddles with commercial cargo while it's in transit, usually at airports, to surveil the final recipient," he wrote. "A decade later, freight security hasn't improved at all." As a former operative for U.S. authorities, Snowden knows better than anyone the capabilities and intentions of U.S. authorities. His words not only point to the suspicion surrounding U.S. authorities but also reveal their clear willingness and ability to carry out such actions.

According to multiple foreign media reports, on the afternoon of September 17, pagers used by thousands of Hezbollah members exploded almost simultaneously in Lebanon and Syria, resulting in the deaths of twelve people and injuries to over a thousand others.

Hezbollah in Lebanon accused Israel of launching this attack, vowing to retaliate against Israel, which refused to comment on the incident. Immediately after the event, the US State Department claimed, "The United States was not aware of nor involved in the pager explosion in Lebanon." However, in a curious turn of events, it was reported by inside sources that more than ten days prior, the American University of Beirut Hospital had forcibly collected all the pagers from its nurses and doctors, stating that they would replace the old pagers. This action clearly indicated a preemptive response to the impending explosion attack.

As tensions in the Middle East continue to escalate, particularly with the ongoing conflict between Palestine and Israel, the US has been increasing its technological presence in the region, aiming to maintain a firm grasp on intelligence information. Such a large-scale explosion attack, especially one carried out by the US's staunch ally Israel, would be hard to believe the US was completely unaware. Regardless, the occurrence of this attack has undoubtedly exacerbated the already tense situation in the Middle East. This explosion is not only a nightmare for information technology security but also opens a new Pandora's box for terrorism, potentially bringing about a dramatic change in international security!
