Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gifted US President Donald Trump a golden pager during their meeting in Washington on Tuesday, an Israeli political source told CNN.
“Press with both hands”
…just when you thought this timeline couldn’t get much weirder.
I mean, the pager attack was a masterstroke. Getting away with it is underselling it. Never before has a highly targeted attack like this been performed. I can’t imagine a better way to attack a terrorist organization this deeply embedded within society. It certainly beats bombs and ground troops by every metric.
Indiscriminate is the correct word. They were detonated all at the same time regardless of where their targets location at the time. Civilians were killed, including children.
Hezbollah had provocation, namely 75 years of oppression by the Israelis. They also did not attack first. This wasn’t Israel defending themselves, this was them once again attacking someone who stood up to them without a care about collateral deaths, which is their normal. You call them terrorists, but what I see in Hezbollah and Hamas are the lone defenders of a people the West is trying their absolute best to quietly genocide.
I don’t really care if you can “excuse” me for saying so. I don’t really care what a genocide-promoting Zionist thinks, because quite frankly, the ideology is no different in its methods than Nazism, and I also don’t give a shit what Nazis think either. Israel picked this fight, and they deserve whatever comes their way.
Not this one. Israel created a shell company that sold these particular pagers only to Hezbollah (reportedly at a profit). Neither did Hezbollah buy these in random shops nor were they ever distributed to random shops. The network they used was also exclusively created by and for Hezbollah, not any civilians, so even if civilians had wanted to use these devices, they would not have been able to. Hezbollah bought them in bulk and distributed them to their members, believing they would be a safe way to communicate without tracking, since most pagers are one-way devices.
Honestly, this is the most insulting accusation you could make. Is my writing style really this awful?
I’m not. This user name is decades old. I think I first started using it around 2003-2005. If you’re willing to dig, you can find things written under it aeons ago.
Consider trying to change my mind with facts. None of you have so far. Instead, you demonstrated a lack of knowledge and understanding. You are emotional, not rational.

Similar to a lot of other highly effective attacks, its also a war crime ☹️
What exactly makes an attack on devices that were exclusively used by members of Hezbollah a war crime?
it would take you 2 minutes to look for that info. it is readily available.
I have spent far more time on this topic. See my other answers if you don’t believe me.
The indiscriminate detonations killed many civilians including children.

So 2 dead kids is acceptable and makes it a discriminate attack. How many dead children before it is indiscriminate?
You can always tell who is a liberal by listening to them justify killing a few kids for the greater good.

Incorrect premise. A pager is an ordinary consumer electronic device that can and did find its way into innocent hands.
Not this one. Israel created a shell company that sold these particular pagers only to Hezbollah (reportedly at a profit). Neither did Hezbollah buy these in random shops nor were they ever distributed to random shops. The network they used was also exclusively created by and for Hezbollah, not any civilians, so even if civilians had wanted to use these devices, they would not have been able to.

I mean, I wasn’t there, but I read that it did hurt some people who weren’t directly associated with the group. Some children and a medic, apparently?

Because you keep parroting the same argument in the face of direct contradictions.

also a war crime
Only if you lose
