Several of the victims were children. They went off in crowds. There was no way they could control that many devices with precision when they set them off all at once like that.
That particular pager was in a bag, against a person, pointed away from anyone or anything else. Not to mention anything of the second attack, which used much larger charges and started fires and blew out windows across Lebanon.
And anyway, a single example isn’t going to assuage anyone who has been reading reports of women and children dying from the attack.
The fathers of these dead children will simply have to live with the terrible consequences of their involvement with antisemitic terror
So the children have to pay for their father’s crimes? This isn’t really a justification, and they don’t not care, now they have a real reason for retaliation—starting the cycle of hate all over again.
The kid’s blood is still on whoever triggered the devices hands. The child didn’t do anything.
Do you have a source stating that no bystanders were harmed? I can’t find anything making that claim.
Not murder, by your logic.
Looks like murders of innocent civilians were done by semites… As it’s most often the case.
