From an AI standpoint, this was likely based on clustering. If you were seen speaking with a known Hamas agent, you would probably be pulled into the cluster. Esp depending on the number of contacts etc. Speak with more than one agent, and anyone you talk to gets pulled in as well, etc.

What’s statistically appalling is the approved 90% accuracy on the analysis.
