Israel put bombs in pagers and radios and secretly sold them to Hezbollah. The only people who therefore would have had them were people Hezbollah gave them to to coordinate with. You can't really get more targeted than that. There's not some magic Jewish radio waves blowing up civilian radios lol.

Except that these pagers were distributed to more than just hezbollah. AUB (American university of Beirut) medical workers had them too, for example.

Hezbollah has tons of members, that aren’t full time combatants. They have regular jobs and such. They carry a pager, so they can be called up at any time for duty. As a terrorist militia, of course Hezbollah also has medics and such among their ranks.

According to you. The cowards responsible haven't admitted anything.

But in reality they killed kids and many other innocent people as is usual for these genocidal terrorists.

So Israel planted explosives in known communication devices, that could easily be tracked or also had pinpoint tracking technology included with the explosive, then deliberately waited until the intended targets could cause collateral damage to unarmed civilians to set them off? And you argue this is different from terrorism in what way?
