And the resolution of those satellites is literally a state secret. You won’t ever see direct imaging from them being released publicly.
Edit: Also US intelligence said this assessment comes in part based on communications intercepts, which you are definitely never seeing directly released unless leaked.
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.
Everyone knows they have satellites, it’s not like it’s an informant…

Serious off topic question:
Why do some people work their way down a comment chain replying to the same person multiple times?
Do you really want to have multiple simultaneous conversations with the same person?
Do you just not check the username and not know?
It happens a lot on Lemmy, so I’m genuinely curious why people do it, especially when they do it all within minutes
Because sometimes people post different ridiculous things along the way of other conversations that are incorrect in different ways.
A broad comment about releasing intelligence materials warranted one response.
A specific comment about releasing satellite imaging data warranted a different one.
Both poor hot takes, but for different reasons.
You could just block me so you never see my comments again
If I block you you’ll still see mine and keep spamming questions that will go forever unanswered, so figured I’d let you know about the option.
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/ ).
