    But this only works if you know the identity of every member of the organization, which is impossible, again making this a terror campaign and not a targeted attack. And you have to detonate them all at once or people will throw away the devices. You can’t wait for the 100,00 people who belong to the organization to have just unlocked their devices all at once.

      No, but you can mark which pager numbers are in combatant possession and which ones are with civvies.

      Wtf? You’re killing everybody, you’re killing the most influential leaders you know about.

      This was stupid, and will make Israel’s life harder but Bibi is too narcissistic to accept that.

      This is also Mossad trying to wipe off O7 attacks by showering in blood, which is just stupid.

      Nothing about this makes sense as an adult.

        I’m not sire what you’re replying to. My comment was that using smart phones wouldn’t be effective in the way you mentioned. Relying on people 100,000 people that belong to Hezbollah to unlock their phones all at the same time to verify that’s who is holding the device. There is no possible way to make an attack like this targeted. It would always result in a large percentage of innocent casualties no matter what you do. The only use for it is a terrorist attack, which is what this was.
