    Yup. It’s hard to minimize the magnitude of what happened. In one week, twenty years of Iranian planning, billions in support, was basically decapitated and erased.

      Brilliant. I read the other day - may have posted it here - that Iran is growing increasingly uncomfortable with Russia and China and their economy and looking to improve relations with the West. Let the bastards rot until their murderous messianic dream collapses.

          So it makes you wonder, did the Luxembourgs attack the communications because they didn’t want any kind of advance notice to get to him, or did they attack the communications to mitigate any responses from this attack? Command for Hezbollah is completely disrupted.

                        With all the terrorists sneaking across our borders, there must be some exploding devices here.

                        Just reading all the responses in this thread. What kind of range did these pagers have? Were there any reports of far away detonations?

                              So much for rapprochement with the west, unless this is another toothless attack meant for domestic consumption.

                                          Getting messages on our home front app from the army. We will have 12 minutes notice on a ballistic missile. Two hours for a cruise missile. 9 hours for drones.
                                          I think the I need to have a pasta which cooks under 12 minutes. Maybe we go with linguine.
