Hezbollah is a serious and well organized terrorist group. Their members will get in serious trouble if they just give away their on duty pager. These are not toys or handed out as such for fun. Who gets a pager is controlled and tracked by Hezbollah. They know about Israel’s intelligence and surveillance capabilities. Using pagers in the first place is a security measure.
Even in Lebanon smart phones are cheap and ubiquitous. Pagers are only useful for very niche use cases.
they knew was that they were likely to be physically near targets of interest.
Yes.
In short this is as indiscriminate as Russia’s use of cluster munitions on cities.
Ridiculous. A cluster munition covers a whole area with shrapnel indiscriminately. Tiny bombs carried by targets are a whole different category both as a weapon and effects wise.
We’d be starting WW 3 if hezbollah or hamas did this to Israel
Hamas has indiscriminately slaughtered civilians on October 7th and fires unguided rockets at inhabited areas. Hezbollah fires rockets into Israel constantly and indiscriminately, killing Druze children playing outside.
The whole reason Israel did this attack is because Hezbollah just doesn’t want to stop attacking Israeli civilians.
There’s no world war 3. Israel gets hated on and condemned every time they defend themselves against terrorists attacking their cities.

The ordinance in a cluster munition is called a bomblet. It’s called a bomblet because it’s a tiny bomb
And like a cluster munition, the pager has caused indiscriminate shrapnel across an entire city.

the whole reason hamas did the attack was because of apartheid conditions in Gaza.
You attack them, they attack you, you attack them, round and round it goes until there’s nobody left to attack.
And yes. Israeli paramilitaries started the current cycle of violence with the Nakba. I’m tired of the bullshit. Aren’t you?

Didn’t say there was . I said “if”, with the hypothetical that roles were reversed.
Are you really saying that’s not true?
You act like there moral superiority. There is none. Your response to a terrorist attack is to genocide a people.
Which, to be perfectly blunt, is the reason people are being critical of (not hating in my case,) the Israeli government. Because they’re doing a genocide.
And the reason I’m critical of you? You’re defending genocide.
