No, Israel didn’t ‘intercept’ the shipment of pagers. The explosives were embedded directly at the factory, through the use of a front company.

“Israeli foreign minister accuses Hezbollah of war crimes”
“According to Israeli Foreign Minister Yisrael Katz, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah “has taken the people of Lebanon hostage, placing missiles and weapons in their homes and villages to threaten Israel’s civilians”
That’s why USReal needs to massacre civilians.

17:12 Israeli media: Rocket sirens triggered in Kiryat Bialik, Kiryat Motzkin, Kiryat Yam, Acre, and several other regions in the north
17:02 Hezbollah’s Islamic Resistance fighters struck the northern front’s storehouses at Nimra military base (west of Tiberias) in response to the Israeli aggression on Bekaa and south Lebanon
16:55 Rockets land near Afula, east of Haifa: Israeli media
16:51 Israeli media: Some 30 rockets fired from Lebanon towards Lower Galilee
16:49 Rockets fall in central Golan without sirens sounding: Israeli media
Hezbollah is not lying down. The pain is going both ways.
The difference? Hezbollah is hitting almost exclusively military targets while Israhell is hitting almost exclusively civilian targets.
That’s like two heavyweight boxers going at it in the ring while the bigger one insists on knocking out the opponents support team.

@ Menz – likely third party anti malware restricting your IP address. Can be if using shared IP address (e.g. VPN ) as these get blacklisted frequently, but even IP from normal connection is shared and can be blacklisted due to traffic by others. Alternatively man in middle purposefully targeting you by restricting access from your IP – less likely unless you think you have a reason to be purposefully targeted … i.e. just for you being reasoned would do. Have come across this occasionally, also third party anti-spam completely disabling delivery of mails , but not continuously repeatedly for IP adresses. VPN IP often though. There are tons of filters now on the web , in europe blocking access to banned sources, in US not allowing access due to compliances with EU. It is chaotic.

Note that, of course, sounds other than a nuke can produce a Dirac delta, but when we consider the intense and sustained light, as well as other evidence such as the Rayleigh-Taylor instability observed, and the lack of anything else that could possibly cause this, it is a nuke.

You really believe Israel ‘snuck’ in the use of a nuclear weapon and know one, like Iran or Hzb themselves, did not notice or would not say anything?
Likely more like a thermobaric weapon instead, which can produce the sounds and look (ie mushroom like cloud) of a nuke but not a nuke. USA has them in fact.

Their air force will probably start using US bases around Israel, and Cyprus. US will arrange all the stuff like missiles there.
One shouldn’t put it past it US fighters bombing Lebanon originating from US bases around Israel.
Since Iran seems to be ‘busy’ with other things they can’t be relied to deliver the knockout blow to the USrael.

It is not a thermobaric bomb.
The initial Israel narrative was it was an ammo depot, after the science of a nuke started gaining traction, they changed the narrative to a thermobaric bomb.
The problem is thermobaric bomb lasts only a very short time. It spreads fuel in the air and ignites it, and the flame front burns it all in a second.
The sky above Lebanon was lit for at least 5 seconds with a steady light stream (you can count it from the video). Then the shotgun sound.

As for Iran, the very fact that Hezbollah is firing Iranian missiles should tell you they haven’t been sitting idle.

So much for the rumor that the Pentagon told Israel that they’d be on their own if they invaded Lebanon.
That definitely didn’t age well.
We now know who wears the pants in that relationship and it isn’t the USA!
Next up – weapons designated for Ukraine get diverted from Poland and flown in to Israel. Zelensky is the Pentagon’s side slut and he’s getting dumped this week. The master needs a full time committed relationship.

If Hezbollah had AA defenses I would expect them to have been deployed against the JAF by now.
On the other hand the IOF seem happy enough to pretend that the ongoing daily hail of Hez rockets are causing little, if any, damage.
Jewrael is beginning to remind me of a silly Loonie Tunes cartoon:
A bulldog called Spike, with a 1-terrier fan club, chases a tiger into a dark shed thinking it’s a cat. After a brief and noisy skirmish Spike staggers from the shed covered in cuts and abrasions.
“Did he hurt ya Spike? Did he?”
“Nah” replies Spike “He just scratched me.”
And collapses in a pile of chopped up bulldog…

Here’s the thing that I still don’t understand. Hopefully someone at the bar can educate me…
The resistance has known for decades that ‘israel’ is wholly dependant on its air force and aerial bombardment as means to conduct its ‘warfare’.
So how is it that NOBODY in the resistance seems to have any air defences?

This is very, very simple to understand.
Money and means.
The Resistance is of humble means.
It survives on donations.
Unlike Israhell, it does not have the world’s treasuries open to it’s disposal.
Under heavy sanctions and scrutiny, surrounded by enemies, Hezbollah has almost no means to bring in full air defense systems in (they’re big, expensive and clunky).

Guess we are going to have to agree to disagree. In the clip provide, the light from the bomb exploding was not bright enough. But the other sniff test not passed is indirectly brought up by your post itself: the analysis you provide to make your conclusions. I’m quite sure Russia and China are capable of making the same analysis, and I’m also quite sure they are monitoring the Middle East for such a development as everyone and their mother knows Israel have nukes
I’m certain if Russia and China defected any use of a nuclear weapon, their nuclear military branches would have been out of maximum alert , and would have made it public (due to the very noticeable power vacuum in Washington at the moment) just so that everyone understood the why it was being done, to avoid mistakes. It’s why there is still the ‘red’ phone even today. Again, pretty sure US would have had to let Russia and China know what Israel was going to do so they don’t get antsy, and Russia & China would have had to say ‘cool, no worries’…..which is beyond imagination.
