    Five years ago, if you had asked me if Israel would be committing terrorist attacks across Palestine, Lebanon and beyond, I would have said absolutely not.

    I would have been wrong, even back then, but jesus fucking christ, what an absolute shambles.

    How my government supports this state-sponsored terrorism is beyond me.

      Hezbollah are enemy combatants. These were ordered by and for Hezbollah. Israel isn’t targeting non-combatants.

        They verified that all of the devices were in the possession of Hezbollah before they detonated them?

        Is what why their pager terrorism killed a child and caused 2000+ injuries, including dismemberment of other children?

        Now they just repeated it, I’m sure with the same disregard for living people they have already shown.

          What do you think about Hezbollah reopening the hostilities back in October? Do you believe they could have prevented all this bloodshed if they just kept the border in peace?

            What do you think about Israel never ceasing hostilities?

            For real, read a book every once in awhile.

                No they didn’t. They very specifically never stopped actions in countries they aren’t at war with and notably as the article states THEY WERE PLANTING BOMBS IN CIVILIAN ITEMS again in countries they aren’t at war with.

                  These bomb-planting shenanigans only began after Hezbollah restarted the hostilities

                  Also, why do you consider devices used for military communications as civilian items (in all caps no less)

                    This is the second round of bombings with seemingly benign objects.

                    They are quite literally bought OTC they are in fact civilian objects, that’s why terrorists use them…

                    Seriously, a book… once.

                Zios were murdering palestinians at record rates well before they started full genocide 1, 2.

                People inside the imperial core are generally completely ignorant and brainwashed about the reality of zionist genocide.

              It’s whataboutism to say someone shouldn’t have started the fight in the first place?

                The “fight” started with the colonization of Palestine, the theft of indigenous land, and the expulsion of half the native populace. Naming a random date or event in the past couple of years as the “start” of this conflict is brazenly dishonest.

                Every year, Israel expands its land seizures in occupied Palestine, but for some reason you don’t count that as sustaining hostilities. Sounds an awful lot like you’re willing to excuse Israeli terrorism while holding others to a different standard.

                  Would you say that because of your personal understanding of the history, you’d consider any act of Hezbollah against Israel as justified, and any act of Israel to stop them as unjustified?

                    No, I condemn all attacks against civilians. Hard to imagine, I’m sure, for someone who sees only one belligerent’s citizens as human.

                    But I am pointing out the ludicrous misrepresentation of history that Hezbollah “started” any aspect of this conflict. Hezbollah was created in response to Israel’s invasion of Lebanon. Israel invaded Lebanon because the PLO was launching attacks on Israel from southern Lebanon. The PLO was in Lebanon and before that in Jordan because they were driven out of their native homeland and made refugees due to the colonization of Palestine.

                    There is no aspect of this conflict that does not tie directly back to the violent disappropriation and explusion of the Palestinian people from their land. The conflict is and has always been about theft of land and homes, which continues unabated through the present day.

                  Ok, so in your mind, the year is 1982. Israel just invaded Southern Lebanon and is fighting the PLO. Nothing like Israel withdrawing, the entire Lebanese civil war, the '90s, the 2006 war, the events of 2023 has happened. 1982 Hezbollah received some missiles from the future and fired them at some Israelis that haven’t been born yet.

                  It is forever 1982, and the killing will never end

            Peace was never part of the plan for colonial genocide. Have you ever seen the zio genocide map? They’re planning on invading every neighboring state, stealing the land, and continuing with genocide.

            Why steal just one state when you can steal the whole region? It’s what god wants his chosen people to do. smh.

        Israel isn’t targeting non-combatants

        How many thousands of children have been slaughtered by Israeli troops?

        If you want to be pedantic, and you’re talking only about this specific attack, children were killed in these pager/walkie-talkie blasts too. Are they enemy combatants to you?

        Don’t be a genocide apologist.

            You know you can just not type right? These thoughts that just stream into your head, they don’t need to be shared. You can also read sources and understand that “military comms” can’t accurately be targeted by this attack because of the very nature of radio. Nobody is logging into a badguy frequency and being targeted and identified. Thats not how any of this could possibly work.

              Israel put bombs in pagers and radios and secretly sold them to Hezbollah. The only people who therefore would have had them were people Hezbollah gave them to to coordinate with. You can’t really get more targeted than that. There’s not some magic Jewish radio waves blowing up civilian radios lol.

                Except that these pagers were distributed to more than just hezbollah. AUB (American university of Beirut) medical workers had them too, for example.

                  Hezbollah has tons of members, that aren’t full time combatants. They have regular jobs and such. They carry a pager, so they can be called up at any time for duty. As a terrorist militia, of course Hezbollah also has medics and such among their ranks.

                So Israel planted explosives in known communication devices, that could easily be tracked or also had pinpoint tracking technology included with the explosive, then deliberately waited until the intended targets could cause collateral damage to unarmed civilians to set them off? And you argue this is different from terrorism in what way?

                According to you. The cowards responsible haven’t admitted anything.

                But in reality they killed kids and many other innocent people as is usual for these genocidal terrorists.
