    Those devices were bought by Hesbollah, for their soldiers to use, and were connected to a network they operate.

    From what I understand about the attack, even if one of these devices made it’s way into the hands of a doctor, it would have to be connected to the Hesbollah network to detonate.

      Multiple electronics stores caught on fire. I doubt Mossad found a specific box that said “To: terrorists” on it and only rigged those pagers. They just don’t care about killing civilians.

        My understanding of this is those pagers and the network they were connected to were only for use by Hesbollah.

      Not just their soldiers, civilian members of the organisation were also using them.

        Bold of you to call them soldiers. For the Israel state or, I hope, government, they are all active/inactive terrorists. Yeah, 10 year olds, too.

          I called them soldiers because that is the terminology the person I was replying to used.

            Don’t worry, that wasn’t the point. I hope you didn’t feel instigated by my comment. It wasn’t my intention.
