Israel blew up thousands of two-way personal radios used by Hezbollah members in Lebanon in a second wave of an intelligence operation that started on Tuesday with the explosions of pager devices, two sources with knowledge of the operation told Axios. [snip] The Walkie Talkies were booby-trapped in advance by Israeli intelligence services and then delivered to Hezbollah as part of the militia's emergency communications system, which was supposed to be used during a war with Israel, the sources said.

I think if I was one of them, I'd be seriously considering retiring from the terrorist business about now. What next? Doctored ammo for their guns? Replace the gunpowder with something really brisant?

Not to go off topic but a friend of mine made a small fortune making and selling wristwatches to Muslims that told the when it was time to pray. Smart Muzzies need to get rid of their smart devices from coffee makers to smart phones, pagers and watches. If I were a Muzzie I wouldn't even trust camels. Something could be in those humps.

Obviously, the Israeli's have been monitoring their communications for years. Israel must be thinking that is no longer necessary, as the IDF has massed along the Lebanese border, and intends to invade. This sickens Biden and Blinken, the most incompetent morons ever to hold any office, and who cannot be fired soon enough.

We are seeing the dramatic videos from cities. What we are NOT seeing is footage of exploding hezbollah commanders out in the field where the missile launcher sites are. Israel took out hezbollah's entire command structure with the push of a button. And in case any commanders avoided the first hit on the pagers, they then did it again on the walkie talkies. Hezbollah should at the moment be effectively paralyzed. Impressive.

Throughout the day, mainstream journalists and Hamas sympathizers accused Israel of having made it up, and claimed it was propaganda. However, the CBS News and CNN eventually reported on the horrific discovery, and President Biden referenced it in his address to the nation.

But now she likes what she’s seeing. “She’s funny. I think she’s very smart. She can speak well,” said Dunsmuir, a 58-year-old real estate agent. “I would feel safe with her because I think she can handle herself with foreign leaders. I like her because she’s for pro-choice, and so am I.” Voters view Harris slightly more favorably than they did in July, just after President Joe Biden dropped out

Back in the late 1980s to early 1990s, the only people with pagers were doctors and drug dealers. And if you happened to be friends with a doctor or drug dealer, you learned to call the pager and leave a numeric code. (We even figured out a way to pass along football scores.) This communication process wasn’t turnkey, but where there’s a will, there’s a way. But pagers, of course, went the way of the typewriter and telegraph machine. Nowadays, the only people who still use pagers are, well, doctors and drug dealers. (Lots of hospitals have lousy cell reception, so the medical staff is armed with pagers.)

“Evangelicals for Harris” — the phrase alone is quite possibly the biggest oxymoron of this election cycle. Look closely and you’ll find they’re an alliance of disgruntled anti-Trumpers clinging to the title of “Evangelical” like they know what it means, while proudly planting their cross in Kamala’s camp this November. Dig a little deeper and it’s really just an orchestrated coup by the who’s who of the “Orange Man Bad” fan club to pick off votes from a lucrative demographic that overwhelmingly supports the former president. In a tweet not long after launching, Evangelicals for Harris announced their “ultimate allegiance is to Christ and His eternal Kingdom,” and

Half of Pennsylvanians said they would vote for Harris if the election were held today compared to 46 percent who said they’d back Trump, according to a set of polls conducted by the New York Times, the Philadelphia Inquirer, and Siena College in the week after the September 10 ABC News debate. Harris’s 4-point lead is slightly outside the Pennsylvania survey’s margin of error of 3.8 percentage points.

Hezbollah has accused Israel of crossing “all red lines” with its deadly detonation of walkie-talkies and pagers, as Israeli forces launched a fresh wave of strikes across Lebanon. Sonic booms from low-flying Israeli jets shook the buildings in Beirut during a televised speech by the militant group’s leader Hassan Nasrallah in which he warned this week’s unprecedented action “could be called a declaration of war”. Israel has yet to confirm or deny it was behind the remote explosions, which killed at least 37 people including two children. More than 3,000 people were also wounded, according to the Lebanese health ministry, whose top medics told The Independent that they were struggling
Car Insurance up a Whopping 55% in Biden-Harris

Car insurance rates have skyrocketed under the leadership of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, and Americans are feeling the squeeze. Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics show that car insurance prices rose 55 percent from January 2021 — when Biden and Harris first took office — to July 2024 — the last year of their first term. Once again, their policies are to blame. As Breitbart News previously reported, Americans’ auto insurance rates are rapidly rising due to the pro-migration policies of Biden and Harris, putting millions of these new migrant drivers — “often without driver training or English language lessons” — on the road, increasing risk.
