As much as I love the innovation and creativity in this operation, I'm afraid of terrorists copying the strategy.

They obviously can't intercept large-scale commercial shipments or set up their own front company the way a state actor can. However, they could randomly sell used iPhones on eBay with similar kaboom hacks. That would insert them into the general population and create the terror and fear they desire.
This would give you very little bang for your buck (pun intended). If you just want to blow up random strangers, you don't need this level of sophistication and would do much more damage with a garden variety truck bomb, etc.
Its not about blowing up random strangers. It's about disruption and chaos. Killing an infidel is a bonus.

A dozen iphones blowing up across the country with a terrorist org claiming credit would cause so much chaos (especially with a little lie that there are another 10,000 out there...). The business losses could easily be in the billions just due to interruptions, lost productivity, etc. Imagine being afraid of your phone ringing. A car bomb would not cause the same kind of discord.

That is what is the big deal about these pagers. They hurt them yes, but this is a huge interruption to their entire organization. They have slowed them down more than just the personnel lost. They now have to rethink everything.
Moreover, the pager/walkie-talkie sabotage was so widespread and successful that anyone who escaped without any injuries will automatically be suspected of working with the Israelis. Double bonus!

Muslims made a mistake messing with Jews.

You slap a Jew once, he will slap you 10000 times.
After 2 slaps the Muslim will start squealing like a baby flashing his victim card.

I'm old enough to remember when some jerkoff was putting poison in Tylenol tablets.

Thank him for the 12 layers of plastic you now have to cut through to get a pill

Point is that Tylenol adapted and survived

Wasn't that a woman who killed her husband, then tampered with other bottles to attempt to cover it up?

That was a lady trying to use one of Trumps covid speeches to kill her husband. Trump was right and the lady was trying to kill her husband.

What in the world are you talking about and how does this relate to the Tylenol tamperings in the 1970s?

What I remember about that is one lady initially bought a tainted bottle and died. Family gathered at her house and were not feeling well. Oh, here's a bottle of Tylenol. Several more family members died.

Also the reason that OTC meds are often hard to swallow horse tablets instead of the much easier to swallow capsules. Capsules made it too easy to replace the med (eg - Tylenol) with some poison like the cyanide that he used, but tablets not so much.

Some crazy fellow filled Tylenol containers with cyanide and put them back on shelves. People including kids took it and many died. I didn't know what you said, that is doubly tragic.

I remember that the Ags BB team was in a post-season tournament and had just lost. Coach Metcalf was asked about the loss and he said he was gonna take a couple Tylenol and sleep it off.

Wow. I wonder if that network of Lebanese (read Hezbollah) merchants/bankers/money launderers and drug smugglers in South America is getting nervous?

I think that was one of the people doing it, another poisoner was not caught. The were several copy cats.

Correct... this isn't the typical tit for tat ME stuff.... Israel is doing work and has absolutely destroyed them psychologically here. Hezbollah has to be mind ****ed at this point.

It was terrible for several years with copy cats. I remember my mom throwing things away if they looked wrong (more likely she was just being overly cautious). It was a sad period. Just shows nuts have always been out there. Social media just connects them a million times easier with other nuts.

The barracks bombings was Oct 23. But this is still great. Let Israel do their thing. Just stay out of their way.
