Fuck around and find out (Israel / Palestine version)

These wouldn't be the size of a phone battery.
IF they are lithium at all, (and I am not sure they would be) the battery would be a likely coin / watch size and it wouldn't be the explosion the videos are showing.

I agree. There has to be more to this.

I read it on my daily wire app. Ben Shapiro is a Jew and is all over Israel news. I think he’s part owner of the Daily Wire
 
So what is gonna be the unintended consequences of this action. I wonder how many of these pagers made it past airport screeners? This was a little pager battery imagine what you could do with a larger laptop or iPad battery. I’m sure that would be big enough to take down a passenger plane.

Israel’s pager explosives called ‘ingenious,’ but how long until foes start blowing up our iPhones?​

A Daily Mail writer is facing heat after writing a column warning that Israel’s alleged attack this week on Hezbollah may backfire.
On Tuesday hundreds of pagers used by members of Hezbollah exploded simultaneously, killing multiple terrorists and wounding thousands.


It’s strongly believed the attack on Hezbollah was committed by Israel.
“That assessment was confirmed by U.S. and other officials who said Israel had planted explosives in at least hundreds of pagers,” according to the New York Times.
But according to Mark Almond, a writer for the Daily Mail, this attack may “backfire” just like Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor did.

“When the Japanese Navy Air Service bombed Pearl Harbor in 1941, their goal was to knock out America’s air power in the Pacific and prevent Uncle Sam from joining the Second World War,” Almond writes. “They achieved precisely the opposite. Roused to indignant fury, the American public were instantly committed to the Allied cause – and Japan found itself facing a new and mighty enemy.”
“In yesterday’s devastating attack on thousands of pagers operated by Hezbollah terrorists across Lebanon, I fear we have witnessed the Pearl Harbor of the 21st century,” he continues.
For Israel, he believes the pager attack means much higher chances of “another all-out Israel-Lebanon War – with grim consequences for world peace.” It also means a tougher time for Israel making friends in the region.
“Hezbollah’s allies, Iran and Syria, will inevitably be worrying that Israeli intelligence could do the same to them,” Almond writes. “But even those Arab countries with diplomatic relations with Israel, such as Egypt and Jordan, must now be asking themselves how safe they really are – and whether or not their communication networks are secure. This will weaken Israel’s ability to build friendships in the region.”

For the United States and other Western democracies, he believes this new form of warfare — exploding pagers — could one day soon enough be used against the United States.

“History teaches us that no new military technique remains a monopoly of its inventor for long,” he notes. “How long before Vladimir Putin or Xi Jinping works out how to make millions of iPhones around the world burst into flames in the pockets of their foes?”

It has little to do with the size of the battery in this case. They didnt blow the battery up. edit: well... it may have been a casualty.:laughing:

If you used a little pager battery to detonate a large laptop that was filled with explosives, now you're talking.

So I don’t believe Israel has claimed this. (They wouldn’t) But “US officials” is not where I would go to get the truth. Especially, if Biden/Harris is in charge. Could be Harris arranged it so they could defund Israel.

You guys are slacking in the conspiracy department.

BEIRUT (Reuters) -Hand-held radios used by Lebanon's armed group Hezbollah detonated late on Wednesday afternoon across the country's south and in the southern suburbs of the capital Beirut, a security source and a witness said.At least one of the blasts took place near a funeral organized by Iran-backed Hezbollah for those killed the previous day when thousands of pagers used by the group exploded across the country.
 
Interesting approach in targeting opponents in a manner the opponents probably never even imagined (I certainly had no concept of this sort of thing).

But, my tin-foil hat me certainly does question how a country/intelligence entity can do something so ingenious, yet miss the intel on para-motors flying in and fences being cut and motorcycles rolling in last October.

:confused:
