I think you misunderstand what GP is saying. Context, in this context, is the conversation leading up to the statement that gives the statement meaning. You have to use context to understand what is actually being communicated. For all we know, Netanyahu was only saying that devices are insecure, and to drive the point home, said something scary to the interviewer to get them to understand on a personal level (since many people don't really even pay attention unless they think something affects them personally).
Netanyahu is a monster (I seriously thought he was going to prison any day now back in 2017, what is even happening?) so I assume the worst here. I'd love to see context but I don't owe Netanyahu my personal time tracking it down.
But context is criticially important. I guess they're not teaching it in school anymore? They taught us this in elementary along with the 5 Ws, which is another loss. And while I'm on the subject, kids don't know how to cite sources anymore. Made up quotes via text as image. Cool citation "bro."
