The Conspiracy Behind the $1 Billion Bill: Who Is Controlling the Global Supply Chain?
The picture comes from the Internet
On September 18, 2023, in Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, the originally calm and peaceful city was torn apart by a sudden explosion, flames soared into the sky, thick smoke billowed, thousands of walkie-talkies, pagers and other electronic devices turned into "bombs" at the same time, dragging this ancient city into the abyss of panic, more than 4,000 people were injured in this sudden disaster, and nearly 40 people lost their precious lives
This is not a simple terrorist attack, but there is a chilling truth behind it: someone has planted a "time bomb" in the global supply chain, and the detonation of this bomb may be just the prelude, and a larger, covert and difficult to prevent conspiracy is quietly unfolding......
"Time bomb": starting with the Lebanon bombing
The picture comes from the Internet
The findings of the Lebanon bombings are shocking: the internal structure of seemingly ordinary electronic devices was designed with space for explosives, that is, these "bombs" were not later modified, but "qualified weapons" produced directly from the production line
Who's in control of all this? The finger is directed at Israel
Israel has long been in conflict with the Lebanon Allah Party, and the Allah Party has had to abandon mobile phones in favor of walkie-talkies and pagers in order to avoid Israel signal tracking, Israel has seized on this and extended its claws to the supply chain of electronic devices
The picture comes from the Internet
They chose the pager produced by Taiwan's Golden Apollo Company and the walkie-talkie of Japan's ICOM Company as their targets, and through some unknown means, Israel successfully controlled the production lines of these two enterprises, and completed the "feeding" of the products before they left the factory, and these "added" products, no different from ordinary goods, can enter the regular sales channels in a grand manner, and eventually flow into the hands of Allah
Israel's "conspiracy" succeeded, but the shockwaves of the bombing were far from subsided
"Supply Chain Pollution": The Invisible War
The picture comes from the Internet
What Israel is waging against Lebanon is not a war in the traditional sense, but a more covert and lethal "supply chain war"
"Supply chain pollution", as the name suggests, refers to malicious attackers infiltrating and controlling the supply chain of the target enterprise, and implanting malicious code, hardware backdoors, and even explosives in product design, production, transportation, etc., so as to achieve the purpose of sabotage, monitoring, and even attack
Compared with traditional attack methods, the advantages of "supply chain contamination" are obvious:
The picture comes from the Internet
Stealth: Because the attack occurs upstream of the supply chain, it is difficult for ordinary users and enterprises to detect it
Harmful: Once the contamination is successful, attackers can easily take control of the target device, steal information, damage the system, and even endanger life
Wide range of impacts: Modern supply chains are complex, and if a company is "polluted", it can affect an entire industry or even multiple countries
The picture comes from the Internet
The terrible thing about "supply chain pollution" is that it turns the otherwise safe "civil" field into a dangerous "battlefield", where your mobile phone, computer, car, and even the smart home device at home can become the target of attack, and you don't know anything about it
Made in China: Dancing on the "Tip of a Knife"
Israel's "feat" is a wake-up call to the world: in the era of globalization, supply chain security has become an important part of national security
The picture comes from the Internet
In the face of an increasingly severe supply chain security situation, China has chosen a challenging but imperative path: domestic substitution
As early as 2018, in the face of the trade war and technology blockade initiated by the United States, China clearly put forward the strategic goal of "promoting key core technology research and maintaining the security of industrial and supply chains".
In recent years, China has made a series of breakthroughs in key fields such as chips, operating systems, and aero engines, breaking the technological monopoly of Western countries and providing solid support for national security
The picture comes from the Internet
China's rise has touched the interests of Western countries, which have spared no effort to suppress and blockade Chinese companies in an attempt to curb China's development momentum
In the face of the encirclement and interception of the West, Chinese enterprises did not give in, but with more tenacious fighting spirit and firmer belief, continue to break through technical barriers, enhance their competitiveness, Huawei, ZTE, Alibaba and a number of other Chinese enterprises, has grown into a global leader in the field of science and technology, showing the world China's strength
The New Globalization: The Chinese Solution
The picture comes from the Internet
Israel's "supply chain pollution" incident not only exposed the fragility of Western supply chains, but also triggered a reflection on the Western-led model of globalization
For a long time, Western countries have used their dominant position in technology, finance and other fields to dominate the rules of operation of global supply chains, grabbing huge profits and putting other countries in an unequal competitive environment
On the issue of globalization, the new globalization model led by China will pay more attention to fairness, openness and inclusiveness, pay more attention to the common development of all countries, and inject new vitality into the world economy
The picture comes from the Internet
Conclusion: Guarding the common future
The security of global supply chains is related to the well-being of people in all countries and requires the joint efforts of the international community
In the face of new challenges such as "supply chain pollution", we need to strengthen cooperation, jointly formulate rules, establish early warning mechanisms, improve response capabilities, and jointly maintain the security and stability of global supply chains
China will continue to unswervingly follow the path of peaceful development, adhere to opening up to the outside world, and work with other countries to promote the building of an open world economy and make new and greater contributions to world peace and development
