But isn't that stupid tho. Like they should want their military officers to be using the most secure OS.

But then again, its funny to see them make stupid decisions.

They want to be able to perpetually spy on their military officers to keep them in line. Boot out any dissidents or anyone refusing to carry out illegal and genocidal orders.

Many fascist states like Stalin's USSR, Nazi Germany, North Korea, etc all have mass spy programs on the most powerful who aren't the leader.

It shows perpetual paranoia, which is expected as popular support for Israel has fucking collapsed in most Western countries. They know their time is limited.

That's only true if they trust them. If the goal is to ensure they can keep track of dissidents then no.

I wouldn’t assume any news about technology being used by IDF to be true in the first place. It could just as easily be misinformation.
