Max Blumenthal : What was the point of the pager attack?
Summary
Transcript
I mean, this wasn’t just targeting top leaders of some military organization. These were thousands and thousands of pagers and then walkie-talkies blowing up everywhere. And the demonic cult of Zionism taking the gefawing at the whole spectacle of human carnage with hospitals overwhelmed and people blinded for life, it really shows how addicted to death and violence supporters of Israel are. And at the same time, I think it’s important to point out that the targets that Hezbollah has chosen so far have been military targets almost exclusively in Israel. The ballistic missile I mentioned heading towards Tel Aviv was targeting the Mossad headquarters.
The Ramat David airbase is being targeted heavily in the north. Look at what they’re targeting with their rockets. They’re not playing the same game as Israel and they’re not trying to play into Netanyahu’s hands because he seeks endless escalation. The whole point of the pager attacks was to deliver such a serious psychological blow through grisly Texas chainsaw massacre-style violence that Hezbollah’s leadership would react in an emotional and rash way.
