It's self evident. \n\nBut people don't want to hear it. Even though I think you're 100 percent correct, a better strategy might be to focus on domestic issues.

Israel knows they lost the war with Hamas and they can never actually destroy them and they're losing the moral high ground there so they're just shifting the goal posts to bring other people home from another area. Just more bloodshed and a reason for Benny boy to tighten his grip on power)\n\n-------------------------------------------\n\nEight confirmed dead (1 child among the deceased) and over 2,800 people injured in Lebanon, including Iran’s ambassador to Lebanon, Mojtaba Amani. It's suspected that the IDF targeted the pagers of Hezbollah members, a Lebanese security source told CNN Tuesday. The explosions impacted several areas in Lebanon, particularly the southern suburbs of Beirut, according to Lebanon’s Internal Security Forces. \n\nExplosions reportedly occurred in:\n\n* the southern suburb of Beirut, known as Dahiyeh\n* in the towns of Ali Al-Nahri and Riyaq in Lebanon’s central Beqaa valley\n* and in Sidon and Tyre in southern Lebanon. \n\nHealth workers across Lebanon are being asked to report to work given the “large number of injured people being transferred to hospitals” following Tuesday’s pager explosions, Lebanon’s Ministry of Health said. Officials have also called for people to donate blood in anticipation of increased need.\n\nThe Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has said it will not be commenting on the reported explosions in Lebanon.\n\nFootage shared online shows people in Lebanon going about their days before their pagers exploded. In one video, a man is seen shopping in a fruit and vegetable market before an object explodes from his midriff. The man collapses to the ground and cries out in pain, while other bystanders scatter in fear.\n\nIn another, security camera footage shows a man about to pay for goods at a store before something on his person explodes, sending a burst of smoke into the air.\n\nIn another, a person films the damage inside a bedroom after an apparent explosion. Two holes have been torn through the top and bottom of a drawer, smashing a nearby mirror and scattering debris across the room.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Some initial thoughts:\n\n- Knowing the IDF they likely had this capability for some time but have been sitting on it. \n\n- I wonder if they did a mass attack but targeted at a specific model of pager so they can find out if any high profile people were suspected members of Hezbollah (For example, Iran's ambassador to Lebanon that was injured)\n\n- If an exploding pager can cause this much damage, how much could an exploding phone do? This is slightly worrying given Israel's cyber capabilities are on par with the United States\n\n- How targeted was this attack?
