Because it only discusses the Israeli network shut down and not the Iranian one that they also shut down.

Why does that mean that it gets flagged?

Why not post a link about the Iranian stuff?

It's political, a lot of users don't like divisive topics being featured on HN.

I bet dollars to donuts that it wouldn't have been flagged (and/or stayed flagged) if it was about Russia, China or North Korea.

Oh look, this one is flagged too.

What's up dang?
