Continuing the discussion from Discussion for the Israel-Hamas War: A thread in the Pit:
I don’t know which thread is the right one for this either, so I’ll simply start a new one with a narrow focus, but which can be widened if deemed appropiate (I guess the situation will evolve shortly). And I put it Great Debates because it seems too uncertain for Factual Questions, but if there is a better place, I don’t mind moving it to another forum.
Now to my question: Everybody is writing that it was Israel who made some thousands of pagers explode in Lebanon simultaneously. Many of those pagers beonged to Hizbullah cadres and operatives. Never mind for a second whether it was Israel’s work or somebody elses: How on Earth do you pull this off? How it is even possible?
Just for historical context, this is the story of Yahya Ayyash’s assassination with an exploding mobile telephone. In 1996.
But that was one explosion, now we had thousands simultaneously!
How did they do it?
