9 Dead, Nearly 3,000 Injured in Lebanon & Syria After Targeted Pager Attacks

[That Venice Bitch 27,131]

Hundreds of pagers exploded simultaneously in Lebanon and Syria, reportedly targeting people affiliated with terrorist group Hezbollah. Some of the dead and injured are innocent/civilians. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, but Hezbollah blames Israel

So this is actually insane 

[Mer 59,154]

“The pagers that exploded had been newly acquired by Hezbollah after the group's leader ordered members to stop using cell phones, warning they could be tracked by Israeli intelligence. A Hezbollah official told The Associated Press the pagers were a new brand the group had not used before.” 
 

Um 😭😭😭😭 No one at this terrorist organization thought to check inside these brand new pagers?

Pagers exploding is actually crazy 

[Mer 59,154]

Also it’s horrible that innocent civilians were injured, but it begs the question as to why the Lebanese government is allowing Hezbollah members to freely walk around its country (much less participate in its parliament) when it’s clearly a security risk for the rest of the population? And why did the Iranian Ambassador have a Hezbollah-given pager?

It would not surprise me if Israel did this.

The American government allows terrorists within its borders to freely walk around and hold position in its government.

 

Edit: this happens in so many countries, is my point.

Next minute Apple revenue plummets cos people get super paranoid about this type o shit

Not but seriously, what the fuck is reality

The news here report that nearly 4000 people have been injured. Those are insane numbers, if this isn’t terrorism I don’t know what is. I’d be so confused and scared.

lebanon does not care about it majority population. This was made evident after one of the largest domestic explosions in that region of the world happened due to unsafely stored ammonium nitrate. Kept hundreds of feet away from apartments, schools, markets, etc. 

If you look into it, they are STILL cleaning up that part of Beirut.

 

</3 it reminds me a lot of what lies in store for America potentially if we keep striving for profit > people.

[Veinsineon 74,956]

I'd like to add that whomever is found to be responsible should be considered a Terrorist. Not because i side with this or that, but because thousands of innocent people were injured by this. This is fucking tragic.

wtf 

[baddisease 16,977]

I blame America, Israel, and Taiwan.

[That Venice Bitch 27,131]

14 more were killed and around 300 more injured when more devices exploded in and around Beirut. Icom walkie-talkies were responsible for the majority of the explosions, but there are reports of solar panels, car radios, scooters, and electronic locks exploding as well

Taiwan is: 

 

1. Israel's ally

2. America's ally

3. Manufacturers of the electronics they had.

this is like right out of a nightmare, and the less it's discussed the more "OKAY" israel the terrorists who did this  will think it is.

 

scary times y'all. 

[Smoqueed 134]

This is the definition of terrorism! Israel’s complete disregard for innocent lives caught up in these terrorist acts is sadly unsurprising. 

 

They’ve also carried out air strikes on Southern Lebanon, further compounding the fragility of the area. 

 

The reality is that they want war; all while claiming to be the victim. History will judge the aggressors and supporters!

 

Sending peace and love to our brothers and sisters in Lebanon, Gaza and Syria.
