[Breaking 17 Sep] Israel hits back at Hezbollah members by mass remote detonating their pagers!

[Leongsam]

Damned shiok to see all these evil people suffering for their sins. Shows there is justice in this world after all.

Allah didn't help them....

 

[Leongsam]

If the world had just stuck to using the good old rotary phone for communication everyone would be so much safer.

 

[Leongsam]

 

[Hypocrite-The]

How did the Israelis carry this out? Were the pagers rigged with explosives??

As much as I despise Zionists, I must say this attack is really impressive

Pagers? Wats tat?

 

[Peter Ahmad Muniandy Wong]

If pager kept in front trouser pocket then Hezbollah man injured his bola.

 

[Hypocrite-The]

Have to admit this is a brilliant tactic....who in this day and age still use pagers? So anyone that had a pager is a terrorist...it kept the general populace safer...

 

[Hypocrite-The]

God's chosen people are defending their motherland. It cannot be more straightforward than that.

God's chosen ppl? U mean Christians?

 

[Leongsam]

God's chosen ppl? U mean Christians?

This is way before Christ you twit.

 

[Hypocrite-The]

This is way before Christ you twit.

But anything before Christ is no longer relevant....as the old testament prophecy has been fulfilled by Christ...and Christians are now the chosen ppl...

The Jews still claim they're God's chosen people, to this day.

On the other hand, Jesus came to demolish the concept of 'chosen-ness', the concept promulgated by generations of corrupt scribes and Pharisees who wanted to control and oppress the masses. Jesus never said his followers were 'chosen people'... he said all are the children of God, and the Kingdom of God is within.

It's the Christian church that invented the false doctrine that proclaims that only Christians will be 'saved'; all other people (including non-converted Jews) are condemned to burn in hell.

 

[Hypocrite-The]

A brilliant move indeed as only terrorist will have pagers ....so very minimal collateral damage...and In Israel's defence..why would anyone else carry pagers?

So all are chosen ppl? Even demonic worshippers and terrorist?

Do the terrorists say "Siang Kah Pager?" when it goes off?

What caused pagers used by Hezbollah to explode? Northeastern wireless security expert explains what might have happened​

This report is part of ongoing coverage of the Israel-Hamas war. Visit our dedicated page for more on this topic.

Thousands of pagers used by members of the militant group Hezbollah simultaneously exploded in parts of Lebanon and Syria on Tuesday afternoon, killing at least nine people and injuring more than 2,700.

Reuters reported Tuesday night that Israel’s Mossad spy agency placed small amounts of explosives inside the pagers. Hezbollah purchased the pagers from Gold Apollo, a Taiwanese manufacturer.

Tensions between Israel and Iran-backed Hezbollah have escalated since Hamas attacked Israel on Oct. 7 and sparked the Israel-Hamas war. The two sides have been exchanging fire across the Israel-Lebanon border since the war began.

The Associated Press reported that the pagers had recently been acquired by Hezbollah after its leadership told members to stop using cellphones out of concern they could be tracked by Israeli intelligence.

Israel should blow up some Taiwanese bolahs too. The scum chinks are the ones who were doing businesses with the Mozzies.

There's no chosen people... that was Jesus' teaching. Anyone can enter heaven - it just depends on your choice.

The Kingdom of God is within, meaning it's a state of consciousness, of attaining the Christ consciousness (in the wedding parable Jesus refers to it as the wedding garment). Anyone who can attain the Christ mind will enter heaven. If you choose to worship demons or commit terrorist acts, then sorry. God gives you free will to choose to walk the Way, the narrow and strait way or walk the broad path to destruction. You choose; God doesn't.

This situation is still evolving, but what do you believe are some key takeaways so far?​

Usually this type of hardware has a failsafe, which means if something fails, the device turns off. Here, the failsafe didn’t act, which means that it was disabled. Who disabled it? Where did they get [these pagers] from? Who manufactured them? Who had access to them? It could be the manufacturer that caused the problem. It could have been a third party who intercepted the pagers and did firmware edits.

It’s been reported that explosives were placed inside the pagers. What additional insights can we make about this situation? ​

What it means is that somewhere between the manufacturer and the user someone had access to these pagers. And they did not just modify the software, they would make it react in the presence of a specific message. They also added a tiny explosive next to the battery, so that the reaction would not just be a battery blowing up, it would be the actual pagers exploding.

Do you know of any other situations like this one happening in the past?​

No, I cannot think of any right now. This is new.

Do you suspect situations like this happening more in the future as the world gets increasingly more connected?​

These things can happen, for sure. That’s why in places like Northeastern there is much research going on in cybersecurity. What I want to emphasize is that cybersecurity is needed not just to protect your identity and your bank account. It’s needed to protect your physical integrity.

why god also like bell curve concept and make it hard by creating narrow path to salvation and broad path to evil? why not the other way round to show his goodness and mercy?

why god also like bell curve concept and make it hard by creating narrow path to salvation and broad path to evil? why not the other way round to show his goodness and mercy?

Good question. I guess in our world of myriads of forms, trying to attune to the spirit behind these forms is always harder, seemingly the more difficult, narrower path to take than merely following outer rules and rituals (do not kill, pray 5x a day, go to church on Sunday, don't eat meat, etc).

That's why the Buddha preached the Middle Way, beyond the world of pairs (good/evil, beautiful/ugly, fat/thin) and form.

God is spirit. Heaven is a state of consciousness within you, and consciousness/mind is spirit.
