Hezbollah In Lebanon Violates Ceasefire

Israel is now striking targets in Lebanon.
Hezbollah violated the ceasefire this morning, launching two rockets toward Har Dov in northern Israel:

Israel has begun their airstrikes in Lebanon in response to the violates, which means the ceasefire is officially over:
The IDF has begun striking terror targets in Lebanon following Hezbollah’s violation of Lebanon’s ceasefire agreement with Israel, Israel’s military announced on Monday evening.
The attacks come after Israel vowed to respond to Hezbollah’s previous rocket launches toward Israel’s Mount Dov area.

Kamala Harris Admits Out Loud That She Believes Israel Is Committing Genocide By Defending Their Citizens Lives And Their Country

Anyone paying attention knows the Harris/Biden cabal are paying lip service to supporting Israel, but behind the scenes and not behind the scenes, they want Israel obliterated and every Jew dead. Call it naïveté, call it simple stupidity, but if they get their way, Israel surrenders to its enemies, no longer defends itself, and dies by a thousand cuts, or all at once when Iran gets the Islamic bomb. Benjamin Netanyahu is wisely ignoring them.

Kamala Harris publicly agrees with protestor accusing Israel of genocide: ‘What he’s talking about, it’s real’
Vice President Harris publicly agreed with a protestor this week who interrupted her to accuse Israel of committing “genocide.”
The moment went down during a campaign stop Thursday at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, when a pro-Hamas UWM student began yelling out while the Democratic presidential nominee was speaking, video of the exchange showed.
“I am so invested in you all, in every way,” Harris can be heard saying as the interruption began.
“And in genocide right?” the heckler said.
Someone off-camera can be heard whispering “shut up,” but the outburst continued.
“I’m speaking right now,” Harris said before launching into her now well-worn response to similar interruptions.
“I know what you’re speaking of. I want the ceasefire. I want the war to end. And I respect your right to speak but I am speaking right now.”
“But what about the genocide? What about the genocide though?” the protestor, wearing a keffiyeh, yelled.
The man was then escorted out of the hall while yelling, “19,000 children are dead, and you won’t call it a genocide.”
In the silence that followed his exit, Harris turned back to the audience.
“Listen, what he’s talking about, it’s real. That’s not the subject that I came to discuss today, but it’s real and I respect his voice,” Harris said.

The vice president has never previously suggested that Israel’s defensive war in Gaza amounts to a genocide of Palestinian people.
“Kamala Harris just publicly validated the false and vicious accusation that Israel is engaging in genocide,” David Friedman, a former U.S. ambassador to Israel, told The Post Saturday.
“Many, including myself, always suspected that she held this warped, antisemitic view of Israel’s self-defense against Hamas barbarism. But the cat is now out of the bag,” he added.
“Her view is as ignorant as it is malign. … To give credence publicly to this disgusting blood libel disqualifies Harris from holding any public office, let alone the presidency,” he said.
Harris’ family has also been public about their sympathies.
Both Harris’ stepdaughter Ella Emhoff and niece Meena Harris, have raised cash for the Palestinian cause.
Ella Emhoff’s activism has included soliciting funds for the UN’s Palestinian relief agency, which the United States cut funding to over staffers’ potential involvement in the Oct. 7 attacks.
The incident comes as Harris has faced growing skepticism from Jewish voters, with poll after poll suggesting their support for the Democratic party is eroding.
Harris’ comments seemingly endorsing the position that Israel is committing genocide took place just one day after the country killed Hamas terror leader Yahya Sinwar.
“That is not the view of the Biden-Harris Administration or the Vice President,” A Harris campaign official said. (Do you believe the enemy or your own lying eyes and ears.)

‘A Grave Mistake’: Netanyahu Responds To Assassination Attempt

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded on Saturday night to an assassination attempt on his wife by Iranian-backed Hezbollah terrorists, calling the decision to go after him and his wife a serious mistake that the group would pay for.
“The attempt by Iran’s proxy Hezbollah to assassinate me and my wife today was a grave mistake,” he said. “This will not deter me or the State of Israel from continuing our just war against our enemies in order to secure our future.”

“I say to Iran and its proxies in its axis of evil: Anyone who tries to harm Israel’s citizens will pay a heavy price,” he continued. “We will continue to eliminate the terrorists and those who dispatch them.”

 

He said that the attack would not stop Israel from getting the hostages back from Hamas inside Gaza, nor would it stop Israeli citizens from eventually returning to their homes in the northern part of the country.
“Israel is determined to achieve all our war objectives and change the security reality in our region for generations to come,” he added.
Hezbollah launched three drones as part of the attack on Saturday morning. Israeli helicopters managed to shoot down two of the drones, but the third evaded being destroyed.
“The prime minister and his wife were not at the residence at the time of the attack and there were no casualties,” his office said in a statement.
Some reports suggested that the drone hit a building near his home, however, one photo posted online showed damage at a residence that appeared to be his home.
This marks the first time since the current Islamic war against Israel erupted just over a year ago that Netanyahu has been directly targeted, according to Israeli correspondent Barak Ravid.
The attacks come after Hezbollah vowed this week to escalate its war against Israel after Israel terminated the leader of Iranian-backed Hamas terror group, Yahya Sinwar, on the battlefield this week. Sinwar was the mastermind of Hamas’ October 7 attacked in which 1,200 people inside Israel were murdered.
Hezbollah said in a statement that “a transition to a new and escalatory phase in the confrontation with the Israeli enemy, which will be reflected in the developments and events of the coming days.”
Hezbollah launched dozens of rockets in a separate attack on Saturday that wounded at least nine people in northern Israel.

At This Point You've Almost Got To Assume That UNRWA Is Hamas And UNIFIL Is Hezbollah

Australia has so much anti-Israel and Islamist propaganda. It's refreshing to see Sky News Australia and Sharri stand up for the truth.

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Sent A Message To The Iranian People On Monday.

Israel has had enough.
They've largely taken out Hamas. They've taken on Hezbollah and taken out their leadership, and they are even now hunting down their strongholds in Lebanon.

All of this is justly deserved, after years of attacks, including October 7, to keep their own country safe.
As you go up the terrorist food chain of evil, the next in line is Iran. Iran has decided to jump into the abyss and began attacking Israel with ballistic missiles on Tuesday.
Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had a message for the Iranian people on Monday: "Israel stands with you." But within that message, if you read between the lines, was a message to the Iranian leadership: Your time is coming; we can "reach anywhere" in the Middle East.

https://x.com/netanyahu/status/1840740049299583355?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1840740049299583355%7Ctwgr%5E316a3d30746c8d66e9ce220092ba3b28cb785391%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fredstate.com%2Fnick-arama%2F2024%2F10%2F01%2Fmessage-to-ayatollah-n2180023

"When Iran is finally free, and that moment will come a lot sooner than you think, everything will be different," he said. He seemed to be urging them to stand up to their oppressive leadership and cluing them in that something is coming.

Israel Under Attack: Iran Launches Missiles, Gunmen Kill 8 Near Tel Aviv

Iran launched ballistic missiles at Israel, the Israeli Defense Forces said Tuesday, moments after at least two gunman killed at least eight people near Tel Aviv.
Iran’s anticipated ballistic missile attack against Israel is now underway, according to Fox News Chief Foreign Correspondent Trey Yingst, citing an Israeli source.
Yingst said initial reports indicate that around 100 missiles have been fired toward Israel. Israel's Iron Dome missile defense system could be seen intercepting the projectiles.

The attack appears to be unfolding in waves. The IDF released a statement saying "Iran's attack is continuing" and "the Aerial Defense Array is currently identifying and intercepting launches."
Iran previously launched a failed missile attack on Israel in April of this year.
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said this latest barrage of missiles is in retaliation for the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut, Lebanon, in an Israeli airstrike late last week and the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran in July, according to Yingst.
The Israeli Defense Forces said in a statement earlier that "A short while ago, missiles were launched from Iran towards the State of Israel."
"In the last few minutes, the Home Front Command has distributed life-saving instructions in various areas across the country," the IDF said. "The public is asked to adhere to the Home Front Command's guidelines. Upon hearing a siren, you must enter a protected space and remain there until further notice."
Sirens could be heard going off across Israel during the attack.
"The IDF is doing and will continue to do everything necessary to protect the civilians of Israel. The IDF is fully prepared for both defense and offense at peak readiness," IDF Spokesperson Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said in a statement.
"Continue to act responsibly and keep calm, as you have done so far, and make sure to follow the guidelines. We are strong and can handle this event as well," he added.
Also:
Eight people have been killed and others have been injured Tuesday in a shooting in the Israeli city of Jaffa, local officials tell Fox News' Trey Yingst.
Terrorists are reported to have opened fire on at least ten people, leaving them with various degrees of injuries, according to Israel’s TPS news agency.
An Israeli police spokesperson later said both attackers have been eliminated, according to Walla News.

AP Hits New Low With ‘Charismatic And Shrewd’ Description Of Dead Hezbollah Terrorist

The outlet was shamed into editing its headline within hours.
The Associated Press previewed the likely death of Hezbollah terrorist leader Hassan Nasrallah with a lengthy biographical article that rivaled The Washington Post — which famously referred to Al Qaeda terrorist leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi as an “austere religious scholar — in its effort to frame the Islamic extremist in a positive light.
The original headline was posted on Friday, and it read, “Charismatic and shrewd: A look at longtime Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.” But Saturday morning, the headline had already been edited to read simply, “Who is longtime Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah?”

The quick edit appears to have been a response to the critics who flooded X with comments about how positive a tone the AP had adopted when talking about the leader of a terrorist organization.
AG Hamilton showed a side-by-side of the Nasrallah headline with one about the late U.S. Senator Jim Inhofe (R-OK): “Former U.S. Sen. Inhofe, defense hawk who called human-caused climate change a ‘hoax,’ dies at 89.”
“AP on the death of a Republican Senator vs The possible death of a terror leader responsible for tens of thousands of deaths,” Hamilton captioned the screenshots.

“@AP, I’m sorry for your loss,” Hillel Neuer posted. “‘Charismatic and shrewd…. an astute strategist… considered a pragmatist… idolized by his Lebanese Shiite followers… respected by millions across the Arab and Islamic world…’ Maybe next time, speak to his victims.”

“Not a parody from the AP. Nasrallah was a ruthless, murderous terrorist,” Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) added.

“Nasrallah is not a ‘charismatic leader.’ He is a bloodthirsty, anti-Semitic terrorist. Hope this helps, @AP,” Rep. Anthony D’Esposito (R-NY) said.

In addition to the headline, the AP delivered a full 12 paragraphs before the word “terrorist” was even mentioned. Instead, the outlet referred to Nasrallah as an “astute strategist,” an “archenemy of Israel,” and “a fiery orator viewed as an extremist.”

Eight Reasons Just To Start With ...

 Death To Hezbollah ... Death To Hamas.

Nasrallah Is Festering In Hell

I waited to post this because I heard he was dead, then he might be dead, then he wasn’t dead, then he was reported dead, then ….
Netanyahu calls Nasrallah’s killing ‘necessary,’ says region at ‘historic turning point’ after Israeli airstrike slays terror chief.
Israel has wiped out longtime Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah — a major blow to the terror group and a move that sent shockwaves through the Middle East.

Nasrallah, 64, was at the center of what Israeli officials described to The Post as Iran’s “Axis of Resistance,” and was responsible for what President Biden called a “four-decade reign of terror.”
Hezbollah confirmed Nasrallah’s death Saturday, hours after Israel slammed Beirut with powerful airstrikes — but the group did not acknowledge how its leader was killed.
Nasrallah was “the main engine of Iran’s axis of evil,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a televised statement Saturday.
Nasrallah’s death was a “historic turning point” that could change the balance of power in the Middle East, with Netanyahu calling the killing a necessary decision.
“Nasrallah was not just another terrorist, he was the terrorist,” Netanyahu said, adding that airstrikes to reduce Hezbollah’s capability to fight back were not enough.
“As long as Nasrallah was alive, he would have quickly rebuilt the capabilities we took from Hezbollah,” Netanyahu said.
“Therefore, I gave the directive – and Nasrallah is no longer with us.”
The assassination was also intended to send a message to Hamas — including Yahya Sinwar, considered the mastermind behind the Oct. 7 attack on Israel.
“The more that Sinwar sees that Nasrallah will not be coming to his rescue, the greater are the chances for returning our hostages,” Netanyahu said.
The assassination showed Israel’s strength — and its long reach, the prime minister said.
“Nasrallah spoke about us as ‘spider webs.’ But instead of ‘spider webs’, he found the tendons of steel of a united and mighty nation that is determined to ensure its existence and its future,” Netanyahu continued.
“Not only has Hezbollah discovered this. The entire Middle East has discovered this… There is no place in Iran or the Middle East that the long arm of Israel cannot reach. Today, you already know that this is correct.”
He also pledged to stand with those “fighting under the violent dictatorship of Iran and its proxies in Lebanon, Syria, Iran itself and other places.”
Netanyahu’s speech came as word of Nasrallah’s death reverberated through the region, including the northwestern Syrian city of Idlib, where people were seen dancing in the streets and fireworks exploded at the news.
Nasrallah was a staunch ally of Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad.
Nasrallah, 64, was in a bunker beneath the terror group’s main headquarters when Israeli warplanes “leveled six buildings” in a targeted attack that also took out several other Hezbollah higher-ups, the IDF said.
Israel tracked Nasrallah for months, and was aware of his whereabouts for some time, three senior Israeli officials told The New York Times.
The IDF decided to move on the terror leader this week because they believed that only had a small window of opportunity to do so, the officials explained.
The IDF said it also neutralized Muhammad Ali Ismail — the commander of Hezbollah’s missile unit in southern Lebanon — as well as his deputy, Hussein Ahmad Ismail, and other “commanders and operatives” who attended the meeting.
In other developments: on Saturday, Iranian media reported that Iran Revolutionary Guard deputy commander Abbas Nilforoushan was also killed in the Beirut strikes.
The Hezbollah headquarters in Beirut were a legitimate military target under international law, IDF spokesperson Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said.
“To our enemies, I say: we are strong and determined. To our partners, I would say: our war, is your war,” Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said in a statement Saturday.
“And to the people of Lebanon, I say: our war is not with you. It’s time for change.”n  Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi said in a video statement released Saturday that Israel was determined to “destroy” Hezbollah.
Nasrallah’s death would only strengthen its own resistance against Israel, Hamas declared Saturday.
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei urged the Muslim world to “confront” the “wicked” Israeli regime.
Nasrallah’s death was “a measure of justice” for his victims, President Biden said, adding the US “fully supports” Israel.
“Hassan Nasrallah and the terrorist group he led, Hezbollah, were responsible for killing hundreds of Americans over a four-decade reign of terror,” Biden, 81, said in a statement released by the White House Saturday afternoon.
“His death from an Israeli airstrike is a measure of justice for his many victims, including thousands of Americans, Israelis, and Lebanese civilians.”
This latest strike on Beirut came after Israel killed three senior Hezbollah military commanders earlier in the week. Those strikes reportedly killed more than 700 soldiers and civilians.
Nasrallah was a founding member of the Iranian-backed militant group and served as its sole leader since 1992, when his predecessor and co-founder Abbas al-Musawi was also killed by an Israeli airstrike.
The IDF warned “Hezbollah has over 150,000 rockets, meant to kill Israeli civilians,” in a post on X after the attack.
“Some [rockets] are strategically placed beneath civilian populations. We have called on Lebanese civilians in specific buildings in the Dahiya neighborhood to move away from areas being used by Hezbollah.”
The targeting of Nasrallah Friday was followed by another series of bombings in the Beirut area on Saturday.
On Saturday afternoon, the IDF claimed that it had killed Hezbollah official Hassan Khalil Yassin in a strike in Dahieh, NBC News reported.
United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said he was “gravely concerned” by the “dramatic escalation” in Lebanon following Nasrallah’s death.

Netanyahu Says Israel's Hezbollah Policy Remains In Force

Joint statement on Lebanon and Israel from Joe & Kamala, other countries fails to mention one MAJOR thing…

Last night a joint statement was issued on the war Israel is fighting to stop Hezbollah from firing rockets and missiles into Israel. The statement is said to be from multiple countries with the United States listed first and calls for an immediate ceasefire and a diplomatic solution.
Here’s what the statement says:

 

Do you see anything missing? They never once mention the terrorist group Hezbollah by name, who is responsible for all of this. How does that even happen?
AG on X writes: “Think about how worthless this statement is… It ends with a call demanding an agreement between Israel and Lebanon, but Lebanon can’t control Hezbollah. They literally do not mention the terrorist group that started and continues this. So what agreement can you possibly make with just Lebanon and Israel?”
Where was this statement when Hezbollah was firing daily missiles and rockets into northern Israel since October 8th? Clearly none of these countries cared at all about this until Israel finally got serious about stopping Hezbollah. Now all of a sudden they want a ceasefire?
This morning Netanyahu arrived in the US for his UN speech and made clear Israel won’t stop until their accomplishments are complete:

Israel Decimates Hezbollah Terrorist Chain Of Command And Infrastructure In Lebanon

Israel Unleashes Fury On Hezbollah In New Round Of Strikes.
Israel hit nearly 300 Hezbollah targets, including thousands of launcher barrels that were about to fire rockets at Israel.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) unleashed a new round of attacks against Iranian-backed Hezbollah terrorists in southern Lebanon on Saturday, conducting airstrikes that resulted in powerful explosions ripping through the night sky.
“The IDF completed an additional series of strikes in southern Lebanon since the afternoon, with the direction of the IDF Intelligence Directorate, the IAF struck approximately 290 targets, including thousands of launcher barrels, alongside additional terrorist infrastructure in multiple areas in southern Lebanon,”  the IDF said.
“The IDF will continue operating to dismantle and degrade Hezbollah’s capabilities and terrorist infrastructure.,” the statement added.
Many more images and videos from the airstrikes on Saturday are available at the link.

The strikes came after Israel carried out an unprecedented strike against Hezbollah on Tuesday and Wednesday, detonating thousands of pagers and walkie talkies that Israel’s intelligence services had secretly built through legitimate manufacturing companies that it created as part of a plan that was at least 15 years in the making.
The detonation of the devices was enormously successful for Israel, thousands of Hezbollah terrorists were injured, with many sustaining severe injuries that will keep them off the battlefield forever, like missing limbs and blindness. Hundreds more were critically injured and dozens were killed. The attack also outed numerous terrorists to their communities who may not have known that they were part of the organization.
Other benefits of the attack included its minimal collateral damage, the decimation of Hezbollah’s ability to communicate, and inducing a state of fear and paranoia within the organization.
Israel also decimated Hezbollah’s elite Radwan force on Friday, killing its entire senior command in an airstrike.

 
The IDF noted that Hezbollah’s military top chain of command has been nearly entirely eliminated following the airstrikes yesterday.

Among those killed in Israel’s airstrike was Ibrahim Aqil, the Head of Hezbollah’s Operations Unit and the Commander of Hezbollah’s Radwan Forces, who was also in charge of Hezbollah’s “Conquer the Galilee” attack plan, the IDF said in a statement.
“Aqil and the Radwan commanders who were eliminated today were planning Hezbollah’s ‘Conquer the Galilee’ attack plan, in which Hezbollah intended to infiltrate Israeli communities and murder innocent civilians,” the statement said.
Aqil is one of the founders of the terrorist group and had a $7 million bounty on his head from the U.S. government over his role in the 1983 bombings of the U.S. Embassy in Beirut, which killed 63 people, and the U.S. Marine Corps barracks, which killed 241 U.S. personnel.
The Radwan Force is the unit that is reportedly primarily responsible for Hezbollah’s terrorist operations against Israel, with one of its top goals being the conquering of the northern Israeli region of Galilee, The New York Times reported.
“The Radwan Force is dedicated to duplicating what happened on Oct. 7 in the south of Israel in the north,” said Tamir Hayman, a retired general who led Israeli military intelligence until 2021. “For that exact reason, it’s unacceptable for Israel to allow its fighters to remain in the border area.”

I haven't read it in any Israeli or Jewish links but the name "Operation Grim Beeper" is starting to come up and I think it's just freakin' hilarious.

Israel is in a No Shit Barred mode right now and ‘I’m lovin’ it.’ 

AND a big SHOUT OUT TO ISRAEL for the massive payback to Aqil for the Beirut Marine Barracks bombing and the Beirut Embassy bombing.

Israeli Airstrikes Take Out Hezbollah Commander Behind 1983 Beirut Marine Barracks Bombing.

 
Israel Defense Forces have confirmed that they have been conducting airstrikes in Beirut, Lebanon, and multiple reports indicate that they have taken out Hezbollah commander Ibrahim Aqil, one of the masterminds behind the 1983 bombing of a U.S. Marine barracks in the war-ravaged country. He also was involved in the 1983 embassy strike, which killed 63 people.
Over 241 Americans were killed in the barracks bombing:

Sources told CNN that senior Hezbollah military figure Ibrahim Aqil was the target of Israel’s strike on southern Beirut that leveled a building, killing at least eight people and injuring dozens of others.
Last year, to mark the 40th anniversary of Hezbollah’s bombing of the US Embassy in Beirut in 1983, the US State Department announced a reward of up to $7 million for information on Aqil, a key leader of the militant group.
The US has accused Aqil of involvement in the 1983 embassy strike, which killed 63 people, as well as the Hezbollah bombing of the Beirut Marine barracks, which killed 241 US personnel later that year.

The IDF also took aim at Hezbollah’s offensive capabilities:

For decades, Hezbollah has weaponized civilian homes, dug tunnels beneath them and used civilians as human shields—having turned southern Lebanon into a war zone. The IDF is operating to bring security to northern Israel in order to enable the return of residents to their homes and achieve war goals.

UPDATED: 9/20/24 1:20 PM ET: Reports are circulating indicating that as many as 30 Hezbollah terrorists were eliminated in the strikes:

Israel Did Not Intercept Hezbollah Pagers That Exploded — It Made Them.

Unbeknownst to Hezbollah, Israel had been secretly manufacturing the pagers that Hezbollah was buying for years.
Israel has injured thousands across Lebanon, with hundreds in critical condition and dozens more dead, this week in two waves of simultaneous explosions of electronic communications equipment targeting Iranian-backed Hezbollah terrorists.
The blasts — which may have killed 19 and wounded 150 of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) members — started on Tuesday afternoon around 3:30 p.m. local time when pagers used by Hezbollah started beeping with a message from their leadership.
After a few beeps, the pagers simultaneously exploded across the country, blinding hundreds, tearing off limbs, and leaving gaping holes in bodies.

The messages that the devices received were not from Hezbollah leadership; they were from Israel’s intelligence and military apparatus, and they were part of a multi-year plan.
There was initial confusion as to what happened when the explosions were reported. Various news reports said that malware had potentially been uploaded to the devices, causing the batteries to overheat and explode. Then reports surfaced claiming a small amount of highly explosive material had been placed into each device after Israel intercepted the devices after they were manufactured by a Taiwanese company.
However, none of those reports were accurate, according to a New York Times report that revealed that Israel never intercepted the pagers — it made them.
Hezbollah has forced tens of thousands of Israelis to evacuate their homes in northern Israel since October 7 as the terrorist group fires drones, rockets, and missiles on a regular basis — having fired many thousands in nearly 12 months.
Israel has responded with precision strikes, killing more than 300 top Hezbollah commanders and numerous lower-level terrorists.
Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah pushed for the terrorists to abandon their phones and switch to low-tech pagers to avoid being tracked by Israel. Nasrallah had bragged that his strategy would “blind” Israel.
However, unbeknownst to Hezbollah, Israel had been secretly manufacturing the pagers that Hezbollah was buying for years.
The Taiwanese company Gold Apollo had contracted with a company called B.A.C. Consulting in Hungary to manufacture the pagers. B.A.C. Consulting was one of three shell companies that Israel created to mask the true manufacturer of the communications equipment: Israeli intelligence.
B.A.C. Consulting created real pagers for numerous customers to create the perception of a legitimate company in order to get picked up for the contract to produce the pagers for Hezbollah.
The pagers manufactured for Hezbollah were separate from those made for other clients, the report said. The pagers that Hezbollah received “contained batteries laced with the explosive PETN” and began shipping in 2022, the report said.
After the first round of explosions on Tuesday, Israel struck again on Wednesday, detonating Hezbollah’s backup communications equipment: walkie-talkies.
The explosions from the walkie-talkies were significantly larger than the explosions from the pagers because the devices were larger, meaning they could be packed with more explosive material. Videos posted online showed entire apartment units blown out and numerous cars engulfed in flames.
After the second wave of explosions, many in Lebanon threw their phones away, turned them off, or removed the batteries.
The walkie-talkies that Hezbollah used appeared to be from the Japanese telecommunications manufacturer Icom; however, the company said that the model Hezbollah was using had been discontinued for a decade.
The company said that it had warned consumers for years that the model of radios that Hezbollah purchased were counterfeits.
One of the goals behind the second wave of the attack was to “increase paranoia and fear in Hezbollah’s ranks, in an attempt to press the militia’s leadership to change its policy regarding the conflict with Israel,” Axios reported.
IDF Chief of Staff, Lt. Col. Herzi Halevi, said that Israel was “very determined to create the security conditions that will return the residents to their homes, to the communities, with a high level of security, and we are ready to do all that is required to bring about these things.”
He warned Hezbollah: “We still have many capabilities that we have not yet activated. We saw some of these things here, and it seems to me that the readiness is good and we are preparing these plans going forward. The rule is that every time we work on a certain stage, the next two stages are already ready to advance. At each stage, the price for Hezbollah must be high.”

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (H – Gaza) reacted to the pager attacks that injured a large percentage and killed a number of the Hezbollah Islamic terrorist organization and the memes that arose out of it by tweeting that it’s “disgusting”.

Tlaib is understandably upset at Islamic terrorists being wounded and dying. And by American infidels making fun of them.

But a bad day for Tlaib is a good day for America and the rest of the free world.
America certainly has had its share of enemy sympathizers in Congress, but the Squad has blessed us with actual enemies sitting in Congress. It’s as if we had actual Soviet commissars sitting in Congress during the Cold War.

https://jihadwatch.org/2024/09/rep-rashida-tlaib-condemns-hezbollah-pager-memes

(These are just a FEW of the comments on her page. I did see one or two expressing sympathy out of hundreds of comments. I wasted too much time reading and laughing at these.)

Disgusting is terrorists who launched rockets and killed 12 children in Israel. But you didn’t condemn that, right?

Were any of your staff members injured by the pagers?

Some beepers did some things.

Sorry for your loss of donors...

What Hamas did to Israel is disgusting!

A US CongressCritter siding with terrorists really is disgusting.

Your team took a huge L today. It's natural to feel disappointment.

We’re very sorry that your loved ones in Hezbollah will not be able to reproduce.

It isn't like the pagers were used by the general population. They were used by Hezbollah specifically to avoid Israeli detection. This is the cleanest possible operation against terrorists a country could make. That you are angry about it speaks volumes.

Thank you for confirming Lebanon is infested with terrorists, who happened to be in grocery stores, barber shops etc.

Terrorists were killed! Stop with your bullshit!

Wait until they go to pop a movie in the VHS player.

Beep .. beep ………. Beep .. beep ……..

Don’t want a pager bomb? Don’t want to risk the lives of those near you? Don’t be a terrorist and shop at the terrorist supply store.

Yes, Hezbollah is disgusting. So are their supporters.

Why was a little girl given a Hezbollah pager?

If you were silent as people celebrated the mass-murder, rape, kidnap and savagery of October 7 last year, you have no right to criticize those celebrating the successful targeting of Hezbollah fighters today.

You're not even Lebanese, but I am, and unlike you, I have NO SYMPATHY for Hezbollah or how they treat the Lebanese people. Like Hamas, they use their people as shields. You should be focused on the residents of my state, Michigan, and how you and your party has destroyed the state.

FAFO

Are none of your friends answering your pages?

If only terrorist use pagers … isn’t it disgusting that there was 4,000 exploding terrorists.

Hundreds of Hezbollah members wounded in Lebanon in mass pager hack.
Reports from Arab and Israeli media have said that over 1,200 people have been wounded.

 UPDATE: Lebanese Health Ministry says 8 people have been killed, including the son of a Hezbollah member of the Lebanese Parliament, and as many as 2,700 injured.

Hundreds of members of the Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah were seriously wounded on Tuesday in Lebanon's south and the southern suburbs of Beirut when the pagers they use to communicate exploded, security sources told Reuters.
A Reuters journalist saw 10 Hezbollah members bleeding from wounds in the southern suburb of Beirut known as Dahiyeh.
Iranian ambassador Mojtaba Amani was reportedly injured in the explosion, according to state-owned Mehr News.
A senior Lebanese security source told Al-Hadath that Israel infiltrated the communication system of individual devices and detonated them.
According to reports, the phones were called before the explosion for some period of seconds to increase the chance that whoever received the call would pick it up and be maximally wounded.
The pagers detonated were the latest model brought in by Hezbollah in recent months, three security sources told Reuters.
A Hezbollah official cited by the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) said that hundreds of members had such pager devices, and speculated that malware could have caused the device to heat up and explode. The same official cited by the WSJ reported that some people felt the pagers heat up, disposing of them before they exploded.
Additionally, the same report by WSJ quoted Hezbollah officials stating that the number of casualties was rising too quickly to count.
A Hezbollah official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the detonation of the pagers was the "biggest security breach" the group had been subjected to in nearly a year of war with Israel.

A Reuters journalist saw ambulances rushing through the southern suburbs of the capital, Beirut, amid widespread panic. Residents said explosions were taking place even 30 minutes after the initial blasts.
Lebanon's Health Ministry urged health workers to head to hospitals, according to the Arab media channel NBN.
An Al-Jazeera security source confirmed that communication devices carried by Hezbollah operatives exploded in several areas across Lebanon, not only in Beirut but also in Beqaa and southern Lebanon. Another Lebanese security source claimed that Israel hacked into Hezbollah's radio communication system and caused the explosions.
According to Al-Hadath, the IDF remotely detonated the communication devices using advanced technology. However, Israel has not taken responsibility for the explosions.
Hossein Mortada, a Hezbollah-affiliated journalist who works for the Syrian news agency Al-Alam, told individuals and media in Lebanon not to post any videos or photos of the event, especially of the wounded, in a post to X (Twitter).
