The company said Iran successfully breached the email account of a high-profile political consultant.

Google said in a research report Wednesday that it detected efforts by Iranian hackers to target both the Trump and the Biden-Harris campaigns in May and June, part of a larger email phishing operation that still persists.

Google’s announcement adds credence to the Trump campaign’s claim Saturday that it had been hacked as part of an Iranian campaign to interfere with the election.

In its report, Google’s Threat Analysis Group, which tracks government-backed cyberattacks, said it had disrupted a “small but steady” phishing operation from a hacking unit tied to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

    The entire region WAS a regional empire immediately before Israel existed, the Ottoman Empire. They picked the wrong side in the world war and got broken up afterwards as a result.

    “Seek to create a regional empire” is also false, they gave back a ton of land that they conquered after the initial invasion because they didn’t actually want it.

    A decent Jewish presence has existed in that exact location for thousands of years, which kills your “it’s a colony” theory.

    Got any more bright ideas?

      If a state created by foreign Jews stealing and re-settling stolen land does not meet the definition of colonialism, then colonies do not exist.

      The same can be said about the intentional bombing of civilians and wholesale slaughter of Palestinians during this war. If this is not genocide, then there is no such thing as genocide.

      If we believe your lies, then we live in a world where actions cannot be described and words mean nothing.
