More information is being released on that awesome ‘blowing terrorists up with their own pagers’ plot and it is epic.
NEW
The Washington Post is out with new reporting on how the Mossad got those pagers into the hands of Hezbollah.

It’s so brilliant. Making it necessary to push two buttons to ensure it was in the hand of the terrorist is galaxy brain thinking. The terrorists messed with the wrong people.
Israel took over Hezbollah’s supply chain for walkie talkies back in 2015 and intercepted their comms for years.
Then in 2023, they offered to sell them the booby-trapped pagers. Hezbollah indirectly paid Israel for the devices that would take out so many of their operatives. pic.twitter.com/U24nSjsaAf

This is why it is never wise to start a war with someone smarter than you.

It should be. It’s better than any ‘James Bond’ plot fiction writers could devise.
“The bomb component was so carefully hidden as to be virtually undetectable, even if the device was taken apart, the officials said. Israeli officials believe that Hezbollah did disassemble some of the pagers and may have even X-rayed them.” https://t.co/BWpbWUZPeB

That’s the best part. The terrorists paid for the devices of their own death and injury. It’s a thing of beauty.
Astounding. Absolutely James Bond level stuff https://t.co/Q9SoRiuS2v

Let’s be glad America and Israel are dear friends and allies.
