We are writing about this like it is something to awe over when it's clearly a war crime. If Russia or China was the one that did this it would be written about completely differently.
Can't wait for this to be made into a movie where the hero is the one that killed innocent civilians. /s
Nobody is mentioning the elephant in the room: for sure many of the pagers where brought aboard commercial flights. So Israel seems to have an explosive that cannot be detected by the airport security, or they can confine usual explosives in a way that makes it undetectable by the standard means.
Is it that, or hezbollah goes out of their way to not take those pagers on a plane for opsec reasons? The latter would strike me as more likely.
Isn't it the case that some explosives can only be detected due to the introduction of "taggants" at the production stage?
Seems in airports they’re trying to detect oxidizers? (Among other things) I can’t bring my hydrogen peroxide contact solution through security.
