Israeli supply chain infiltration likely behind Hezbollah pager blasts: analysts

 

Israel has scored a major intelligence success by apparently infiltrating a supply chain to cause the simultaneous explosion of hundreds of Hezbollah pagers in a blow for the Lebanese militant group and its Iranian backers, analysts say.

At least nine people were killed and some 2,800 wounded, including the Iranian ambassador to Lebanon, when the pagers exploded in Hezbollah strongholds across the country in an unprecedented simultaneous attack.  [...]

Hezbollah:  We Bought Pagers From Some New Outfit

 

[...] Back to the pagers, however, which were part of a critical security strategy for the terror group.  Did Hezbollah even bother to inspect the pagers before sending them to every important figure within their command structure?  Apparently not, which would be their second mistake in outsourcing.  [...]

Rashida Tlaib Finds the Exploding Pager Memes 'Disgusting'

 

[...] We're finding it hard to work up sympathy for terrorists who've launched thousands of rockets at Israeli civilians since October 7, but Rep. Rashida Tlaib of the Hamas caucus found the "crass memefication of Israeli terrorism" disgusting.  [...]

Fascinating parallel.

Did the Bible inspire Israel's attack against Hezbollah?

Using technical wizardry, Israel simultaneously detonated thousands of Hezbollah pagers in Lebanon and Syria, effectively castrating a bunch of fighters who subscribe to an ideology that views sadistic rape as a weapon of war.  A short time later, after weathering eleven months of non-stop rocket fire from Hezbollah in Lebanon, Israel finally launched serious military attacks against Hezbollah outposts.  I firmly believe that the IDF looked to the Bible for its inspiration when planning this unique attack.

 

If you haven't read Genesis 34 in a while, here's the story it tells:

Rashida Tlaib Uninjured After Her Pager Mysteriously Explodes

 

[...] "It just blew up right out of nowhere!" one of Tlaib's staffers said following the explosion.  "We were just going about our business, checking over the congresswoman's itinerary of Death-To-Israel protests, when there was a huge blast in the next room.  We went in there, papers were flying everywhere, and there was smoke… thank goodness she had put the pager on the desk.  Such a crazy, unexplained incident, right?"  [...]

Shame they could not have spared one for Talib. But I assume a one off operation and wonder why they went for it now.

Reports say that Hezbollah was getting suspicious (of who or what isn’t mentioned), so the operation was moved up to a stand-alone “attack”, rather than one supported by a ground offensive, as is suggested was the original intent.

Rashida Tlaib may not have had one, but the Iranian Ambassador to Lebanon did. ☠️

I was thinking about it and it would just have taken one to go wrong and someone to try and fix it.

Paging Hezbollah:  How Israel will follow up exploding beepers

 

[...] One thing is abundantly clear:  Israel resides in Hezbollah's communications network, as well as in Iran's air defense network, and has established dominance in the cyber domain — and now its supply chains.

 

Why attack now is the bigger question.  [...]
