I wonder if we’ll get a similar story about the walkie talkies?
Israeli shell company behind explosive pagers used by Hezbollah – NYT
Hungary-based pagers manufacturing company BAC Consulting, which manufactured the pagers that exploded across Lebanon on Tuesday, was an Israeli shell company, the New York Times reported on Thursday, citing three intelligence officers.
The three officers further said that an additional two shell companies were created, which, the NYT noted, assisted in hiding the identities of those involved in manufacturing the pagers.
The report explained that while the company did produce regular pagers for other clients, those manufactured for Hezbollah were “produced separately, they contained batteries laced with explosive.”
According to the report, the pagers were first sent to Lebanon in 2022 in a small batch.
Following a speech made by Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah, where he denounced the use of cellphones – calling them Israel’s “agent” – and promoted more comprehensive use of pagers, more orders for BAC manufactured pagers were reportedly placed by operatives of the Lebanese terrorist organization.
This is great. Israel creates the fear among Hezbollah over use of cell phones, then produces the pagers for the terrorists to use. And, get this: Israel got paid for selling the pagers to Hezbollah. Even if Israel didn’t make a profit, Hezbollah would have spent their money buying the pagers which had batteries laced with explosives. Israel had this operation ready to go even before Hamas attacked Israel last October.

Over 1000 ready-to-launch rockets in South Lebanon destroyed in IDF strike
IDF fighter jets struck hundreds of rockets that were ready for immediate launch into Israeli territory, the IDF announced on Thursday night.
Starting on Thursday afternoon, a total of about 100 rocket launchers and other military infrastructure were attacked, including about 1,000 rockets that were ready for immediate launch, the IDF said.
Three Lebanese security officials told Reuters that these were “the heaviest aerial strikes since the conflict began in October.”
Of course, for Democrats, any action by Israel is bad. They should never attack, they are meant to sit their and take it as terrorists attack the nation. You even have AOC supporting Hezbollah, complaining about the report that one child was killed in the pager attack, but, she’s said nothing about all the Jewish children murdered by Hezbollah and Hamas.
