It's saying that it uses terminology that is well-understood, specific and explicit within the field, but depends on a common understanding of the language used. So people outside the field are unable to understand it, even though they would be able to understand the actual concepts.

You mean the most widespread language on earth?

Yeah that's a fair point wrt non-militant roles, my assumption was that they were primarily used in the military since their purpose was to avoid the issues with mobile networks being used to track them.

But we don't know exactly how the devices were distributed, so you're right that there were potentially a large number of non-military Hezbollah staff.

I mean, yeah. The tragic answer is that civilian casualties are inevitable in war, unfortunately.

According to a UN meeting from 2022, 90% of war casualties globally are civilians. That's not to say that's an acceptable ratio, in fact it's horrifying, but it does show that a ratio of "a handful" to "a bunch" is quite a lot better than the average.

Lol

I think in general it's supposed to be about decentralisation, but god knows scammers will hop straight onto anything with "point-oh" in the name

It sounds hot, though

We do for the ayatollahs though, because they are the ones who actually make the decisions, same goes for Russian presidents and CCP general secretaries

I have a bit more sympathy for the president, since his decisions can all be vetoed by the ayatollah, and he broadly seems to be trying to move Iran in the right direction

I'm on it lads, booking my flight to Tehran now
