A Message From the Mossad

Posted on | September 18, 2024 | Comments Off on A Message From the Mossad

This is some next-level 007-type stuff:

The day after thousands of Hezbollah terror suspects were injured, and reportedly a dozen people killed, by their pagers almost simultaneously exploding, Lebanese and Iranian media reported a second wave of radio device detonations.
The second wave appears to involve two-way radio devices, such as walkie-talkies.
At least one of these explosions was reported near the funeral of a Hezbollah operative killed by the Tuesday pager explosions.
“We came out to try and find out what the sound was and people were running. People were covered in blood,” said Sky News correspondent Alex Crawford, who was in attendance at the funeral.
“There was blood on a car. One young man was running and he was very stressed. He said a walkie-talkie – which the Hezbollah security people around here are using for the funeral – exploded,” she said.
“The Hezbollah people then gathered up all the walkie-talkies and have been taking the batteries out of them. Our cameraman was surrounded by very tense and angry Hezbollah security, who told him to stop filming,” she reported.
Crawford said the funeral was “still going ahead” despite the explosions, but the crowd was “extremely tense,” and Hezbollah operatives were “furious.”
Hezbollah’s Al Manar TV news reported three new fatalities and dozens of injuries in the Bekaa region. The Lebanese health ministry reported more than a hundred injuries across southern Beirut and its suburbs. Most of the patients were treated for injuries in their hands or abdomen.
Lebanese Red Cross reported 30 of its ambulance teams are on “high alert” and responding to “multiple explosions in different areas.”
Lebanese state media also claimed some of the explosions were due not to radio devices, but home solar energy systems exploding.

Apparently, Mossad agents penetrated the supply chain by which Hezbollah was obtaining its electronic communications devices, but there’s a lot of finger-point between the Taiwanese manufacturer and the Hungarian middleman about how this could have happened. At any rate, the Mossad reportedly inserted pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN), “a highly explosive material,” inside the batteries of the devices, which “were then detonated by an external signal that caused the batteries inside to overheat.” That was Tuesday’s pager attack. The second wave of explosions on Wednesday were reportedly a result of the Mossad fearing that Hezbollah would figure out that their Japanese-made walkie-talkies were also rigged, so they faced a “use-it-or-lose it” choice and BOOM!

A witness who was at a Hezbollah funeral in the southern suburbs of Beirut has described to CNN the chaos as walkie-talkies appeared to explode at around 5 p.m. local time (10 a.m. ET).
The witness, who cannot be named for security reasons, told CNN that a loud bang went off, followed by screaming.
They said that the man whose wireless device exploded was covered in blood and his hands had been blown off.

Well, well, well . . .
