Scores of Hezbollah fighters injured by exploding pagers
It has been reported that hundreds of Hezbollah fighters have been wounded by exploding pagers and several were killed. They were instructed by their leadership to use the pagers instead of their phones because the phone communications could be intercepted by the Israelis.

Brilliant job Mossad.

I was using my imagination and trying figure out how they got into Hezbollah logistic channels, but then there are probably a few members of that organization who are on the Israelis payroll. Great psychological effect too.

Anybody remember the Spy versus Spy cartoons in Mad Magazine? Trick fu*k!

Remember, and enjoyed.

Among those injured when the pagers exploded included Iran's ambassador in Lebanon, Iranian state media reported.
Score!

I read somewhere else that 20g of PETN in the battery compartment may have been the Rx.

It always amazed me that the CIA didn't find the Hilux dealer(s) that was suppling the terrorists and booby trapping them.
