Good evening, Elusive. Glad you liked the article. Yes, my stomach has been better today. So hopefully the stomach bug or whatever it was is in my rear view mirror, and good riddance to it too!!! 👍🏻

This is a general problem with the replacement of retail with buying by Internet. With retail, you can pick a random store and a random item. With online ordering, your name comes before the selection of the item.

Excellent point. Walk in and buy, and it’s hard to be targeted. Random, random, random!

If this had happened in Gaza, it would be just one more war crime.

To go after another terror organization without thinking about collateral damage is a war crime.

Israel is trying to kill all it's supposed enemies at one brush.

I think we Americans should back off supporting Israel until they stop the unilateral attacks. Lebanon and Hezbollah hadn't attacked Israel at all.

This was by its very nature a targeted attack, hurting (mostly) only the carriers of these pagers and two-way radios - the communication devices used by Hezbollah in their attempt to communicate without using cellphones.

Hezbollah has been bombing Israel since right after the October 7 attack, so much so the northern Israeli towns were evacuated- about 80,000 people still unable to return home.

Not sure why the immediate, universally spoken narrative about bombs in the devices did not set off alarm bells. This type of attack can happen to any wireless device they target. Skynet just hasn't claimed responsibility.
