Never Peace

In the last two days the IDF has pounded targets in Lebanon after setting off pagers and walkie talkie booby traps distributed to Hezbollah by clandestine Israeli operatives posing as an internet service. THe dirty bombs killed at least 32 people, including at least four children and several hospitals workers, and injured more than 3,300 others as well as conducting ghetto strikes in the West Bank, as Netanyahu broadens the violence to kibbosh any and all truce agreements in Gaza. There are no coller heads in the Zionist government dedicated to exterminating the Palestinians. THe New York Times had reportded that the pagers and walkie talkies had been purchased by a Taiwanese company and then equipped with explosive charges, but it has come to light that Mossad had had them produced by in-housse security companies. So far Israel has no comment of these two attacks.

A German friend commented on the cleverness of the Israelis.

"These are booby traps, which Mossad has used against their enemies, most famously Mahmoud Hamshari, the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) representative in Paris, Yahya Ayyash, Hamas’ chief bombmaker, five Iranian nuclear scientists, and many others. Does Israel have the right to protect itself?

Yes, but this is going beyond the pale as was October 7.

There is only one answer.

Peace. Shalom. Shallom.
