the problem with having a decade old tumblr blog is that there are posts on it from a decade ago

Can you fucking imagine the response if literally any other group did this? add it to the list of "things that aren't terrorism if Israel does it"
WOMAN TWEETING: girls go to college to get more knowledge 😁 boys go to Jupiter to get more stupider 😝
MAN RETWEETING: And women wonder why men abuse and kill women. Pretty telling, isn’t it?

Al Jazeera is saying that the pagers in the Israeli attack were indeed packed with 20g of explosives and were imported into Lebanese territory five months ago, and Axios says that the decision was made by the Israeli state to detonate the pagers a week ago.
Just to be clear, this is a war crime, Israel had no way of knowing for sure if every pager they booby trapped would be in the hands of a Hezbollah member, nor if they would be exclusively in the company of other Hezbollah members.
Israel just carried out a large-scale terrorist attack in Lebanon by causing a number of pagers to simultaneously explode across the country, injuring thousands of people.
It's a developing story, but so far eight people, including an eight-year-old girl, have been confirmed murdered in the attack. An additional 3,000 have been injured.
I've seen Western media outlet report on this like its a target attack on Hezbollah fighters, with media figures in my own country using words like 'sophisticated' and 'impressive' in their reporting.
Look at this still from a video capturing one the pagers going off, and tell me what you see:
Does this look like a justified "military target" to you?
We don't know how these pagers were compromised yet, or who were carrying them, but we're starting to get a good idea of where they exploded, and so far, from the videos circulating online, that includes shops, supermarkets, buses, cars, civilian homes and hospitals.
If this had been done by any other country in the region, it would have been called a terrorist attack.
