Israel Has Declared a State of War

[IDBillzFan]

It feels like IDF is just a few minutes away from driving through the streets where Hezbollah members shop, in a vehicle with a giant speaker on the top, playing Slim Whitman music on full blast.

I'm seeing up to 2000 of them now, I'm sure it will help to ID Hezbollah leadership now won't it?

 

On a side note, it probably serves them right for being backwards enough to still use pagers....

They switched to pagers because they don’t trust cell phones.

 

Or maybe they didn’t finish season 1 of the wire ?

Shocking

Yeah but when did they start using lithium batteries in pagers?

TMobile would be too spotty of service.

I heard that it was Called Operating "Below the Belt". I really hope that is true. 😄

Incredible.  That took some planning and execution, to embed explosives into an order of pagers headed for Hez. 

 

Never accept the lowest bid for any proposal.  😄

On a more serious note.

 

Israel will be mapping out injuries, hospital admissions,

social media posts, electronic communications,

news footage, and medical records, linking them

all to people who had these pagers today.

 

Forget the injuries and deaths; Israel just created a

massive and growing trove of information about both

known and previously unknown Hezbollah militants,

as well as their supporters, partners, friends,

family members, colleagues, workplaces, vehicles, and homes.

 

They just created an incredibly dense and *up-to-date* social graph of an entire terrorist network, across Lebanon as well as neighboring countries. It is incredible what they just did.

 

(Imagine being in a dark room with a massive Christmas tree in it. The tree has thousands of electric lights strewn all over it, but they’re unlit because the wall plug is not plugged into the wall socket.) (Now, plug it in.)

This was actually my first thought, easy way to ID all Hezbollah leadership at the moment

Sorry, just had to share this one

This is as surgical a "surgical strike" as I've ever heard of.  It's pretty remarkable.

 

And Israel must have been sitting on this capability for a while.  Not the sort of thing you can tee up in just a few months, not at this scale.
