But have you tried Jerboa?
This is all sounding a bit insular. I'm happy with the tech stuff but let's not turn the entire site into a discussion about a specific app or two.

It was funded by Netanyahu and the Mossad against left secular PLO on purpose - this is indeed like a 911 situation as he says; it's literally blowback and furthermore likely intentionally allowed to happen given what we've heard from the Egyptians about prior warning to Israel which they ignored (Israel confirmed that they received this intelligence).
