Paging Hezbollah!

Bibi Netanyahu says ‘Hello!’

💣 💥 🔥💀

Checked to make certain that none of the old guys meeting for breakfast at Sofra’s in Middleton were wearing pagers. Yeah, we’re that old school.

Does anyone even use pagers any more? Hezbollah does (or did) because they feared Israel could track cell phones, of which even your local constabulary is capable. So they went old school low tech. Israeli intelligence responded by concocting a shell firm supposedly based in Viktor Orban’s Hungary that manufactured the devices in Taiwan (or was it the other way around)? Packed them full of an explosive and rang them up!

The purchasing manager for Hezbollah much have thought he had a good deal. Instead, 20 operatives killed; another 2,700 injured. The New York Times explains the ploy; it’s worthy of anything Q could have given James Bond!

The pagers began beeping just after 3:30 in the afternoon in Lebanon on Tuesday, alerting Hezbollah operatives to a message from their leadership in a chorus of chimes, melodies, and buzzes.

But it wasn’t the militants’ leaders. The pages had been sent by Hezbollah’s archenemy, and within seconds the alerts were followed by the sounds of explosions and cries of pain and panic in streets, shops and homes across Lebanon. Powered by just a few ounces of an explosive compound concealed within the devices, the blasts sent grown men flying off motorcycles and slamming into walls …

Then Hezbollah’s walkie-talkies started exploding! Would the Israelis be so devious as to weaponize their Sony Walkmans?

Lack of warranty should have been a tip off!

Blaska’s Bottom Line: It’s not just the deaths of presumed head honchos but the humiliation that once again the avatars of death have been outsmarted and made the fool. Israel sent a message to its neighbors: Do you really want to join these losers?

Why is my keyboard making this buzzing sound?
I think it may be …

    Doctors. They’re more reliable than cellphones.

          Wasn’t Bugs Bunny registered to vote several thousand times by Hopeless Changey’s ACORN AFFILIATES…?

    As of yet, there has been no word of how many American “academics” exploded, as well, in their lounges, offices, and lecture halls. Perhaps that would just not be considered news.

    The Old Testament contains many accounts of bloody clashes between the Israelites and their enemies (usually the Philistines), the original occupants of the Promised Land. Often the writers of these chronicles claimed that Israel had not just defeated their opponents, but routed them by very lopsided margins. Some Biblical scholars have claimed that this was mere boasting on the part of the victors, but if one looks as the modern record, starting with the Arab-Israeli War of 1948, through the Six Day War of 1967 and right up to the events in Lebanon, there’s reason to believe that the OT writers were recording the history of their people with commendable accuracy. (Sometimes the Israelites’ victory was due in large part to subterfuge and sabotage as well as out-and-out warfare; the exploding Hezbollah pagers is just the latest example.) So ancient history repeats itself, thereby lending credence to the oft-reviled notion of the Jews as “God’s Chosen People.”

      trumpie says if he loses it’s the fault of the Jews. Is that in the OT or just in his $60 bible?
