Iranian dogs
eh? liberal racism is showing again.
Iran treats and uses them like attack dogs, hence calling them dogs.
false and this is anti-Persian racism
I'd imagine its >99% that Israel modified these pagers with explosives. Those were bombs, that severed fingers, not a battery sparking from a reaction.
Not sure how this dude came to the assumption that motorolla is building a subset of explosive phones for wartime.
He’s a hip hop artist from the UK which basically makes him an expert on the subject.

I must have missed where he said anything like that

That's just silly. They'd probably only need to pass some details on to enable the conversion to an explosive device capable of being triggered remotely.
It's the most extraordinary thing and a nasty in troduction to a future where mass devices will be lying in wait possibly for decades.
Can anyone makes sense of the timing of setting them off?
Ironic that Motorola was one of the companies people were calling to boycott due to it’s involvement in Israel.
that's about the greatest news since Iran's Enrichment Centrifuges were sent spinning out of control and eating themselves alive many years ago.
Oorah
Lol, if the roles were reversed this would 100% be called a terrorist attack by every newspaper. We have no idea the extent of civilian casualties and already the sickos here are brushing it off. I guess Bibi is going to get his war with Lebanon now though.

I’m sure you have many posts in this thread condemning Hamas and Hezbollah for their illegal attacks on Israel

Can someone let this guy know that Hezbollah has been launching rockets into Israel for a year straight? Did you miss when Hezbollah blew up a soccer field and some kids? Must have.

That's why I'm struggling with the timing If you were going to war wouldn't you set this off close to or after the moment of attack.
That's assuming as I am that hezbullah make significant use of these pagers (not assuming that all the pagers are used by hezbullah)

The war has been going on for quite a while. Israel is just preparing the battlefield for the major offensive.
Also, can it be called a terrorist attack when you are attacking terrorists?
How was this pulled off? Here are the theories
From CNN's Christian Edwards
Experts have shared two competing theories as to how hundreds of pagers could have exploded simultaneously.
One theory is that there was a cybersecurity breach, causing the pagers’ lithium batteries to overheat and detonate.
Another is that this was a “supply chain attack,” where the pagers were tampered with during the manufacturing and shipping process.
David Kennedy, a former US National Security Agency intelligence analyst, told CNN that the explosions seen in videos shared online appear to be “too large for this to be a remote and direct hack that would overload the pager and cause a lithium battery explosion.”
Kennedy said he found the second theory to be more plausible.
“It’s more likely that Israel had human operatives… in Hezbollah… The pagers would have been implanted with explosives and likely only to detonate when a certain message was received,” he said.
“The complexity needed to pull this off is incredible. It would have required many different intelligence components and execution. Human intelligence (HUMINT) would be the main method used to pull this off, along with intercepting the supply chain in order to make modifications to the pagers,” he added.
