Turns out, bombs are indiscriminate weapons and detonating them in a souk is a great way to hurt a LOT of innocent people. This is something the State of Israel as a warfighting apparatus does not grasp and it is a HUGE part of why we're all so pissed at them: Civilian casualties are to be avoided.
Story sounds insane but Lebanese friends describing absolute chaos and civilian harm right now www.reuters.com/world/middle...
Dozens of members of the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah were seriously wounded on Tuesday in Lebanon's south and the southern suburbs of Beirut when the pagers they use to communicate exploded, security sources told Reuters.
Like okay, setting aside the who's right and who's wrong at play in a war, a fool's errand in most cases, if you've infiltrated an enemy group such that you can plant bombs in their comms devices, YOU CAN WAIT UNTIL THEY'RE MOSTLY ALONE TO BLOW THEM THE FUCK UP.
