Lebanese Tech Expert Majed Jaber Warns On Hizbullah's Al-Manar TV: Israel Signed 'Massive Contracts' With Google And OpenAI, Receives All The Data We Enter Online, Which Helps It Identify Hizbullah Me
On June 7, 2025, Lebanese tech expert Majed Jaber appeared on Al-Manar TV (Hizbullah–Lebanon), where he warned viewers that Israel can access people's information through AI apps and phone use and identify them as members of Hizbullah. He warned that when Lebanese users sign into Google, all their data is sent to "the Israeli enemy." Jaber claimed that everything users enter into ChatGPT is sent to Israel, which he said has signed "massive contracts" with OpenAI. He stated that Israel operates a cloud infrastructure called "Nimbus," which he alleged stores data from social media and personal devices. To view the clip, clip below: Majed Jaber: "We all use ChatGPT, but everything you put into ChatGPT goes to Israel. Israel has signed massive contracts with OpenAI. According to these contracts, all the information about Lebanese and other people goes to... They have a cloud Nimbus. They store there all the data from social media and from your devices. They have even signed contracts with Google. [...] "The AI [system] receives all the data and stores it. It connects everything through algorithms. The deep analysis that takes place in the heart of the AI is very advanced. If it monitors a person, how does it know if that person is part of the Resistance or not? It inspects the nature of that person's communications and creates a profile of him. Through his phone number, it detects all the people he has called. His picture, the nature of his posts, and even his movements – it stores everything. Then the algorithms decide whether he belongs to the Resistance or not, and he supports it or not. If he is not a Resistance member, it creates a profile of him. Therefore, we need to be careful not to say everything on our phones. We must not say everything to AI apps."

Iraq wary as Iran retreats after war scare
Shafaq News - Baghdad Iraq is breathing a fragile sigh of relief after a US-brokered ceasefire between Iran and Israel brought a temporary halt to escalating hostilities. Though spared direct bombardment, Baghdad stood on edge as the skies above filled with aircraft and missiles, and local armed groups inside Iraq threatened to ignite a wider inferno. The specter of full-scale war loomed large, stirring alarm among Iraqi officials already grappling with the limits of their influence, according to The National newspaper. Iraq's strategic location once again made it a geopolitical fault line, as Iran-aligned armed groups based in Iraq raised the stakes by threatening to launch retaliatory operations. However, analysts suggest the ceasefire may mark a turning point for Iran's regional posture. Ihsan Al Shammari, head of the Iraqi Political Thinking Centre, told the National that the war has compelled Tehran to scale back its ambitions and rethink its strategy amid sustained pressure from the Trump administration.
