Exploding pagers in Lebanon

The Generations Radio Program - A podcast by Generations

Thousands of pagers detonated across Lebanon last Tuesday, injuring nearly 3,000 and killing 12 people. The attack targeted fighters with the terrorist group Hezbollah but also killed civilians.  Then, in a second wave of attacks, hand-held radios detonated across Lebanon on September 18th, killing 14 people and injuring over 450.  Guest host Adam McManus interviews Pastor Mark Biltz, a Messianic Jew, the author of God's Day Timer: The Key to Unlocking God's Time Clock, and founder of El Shaddai Ministries in Washington State. Biltz says Israel’s Mossad, the Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations, is the most likely and suspected source of the explosions, though they are not talking. The larger issue is that many see the source as obviously being Israel. Once that perception takes hold, it then becomes Hezbollah’s move and, by extension, Iran’s move.  In this shocking and unprecedented event, the fabric of modern warfare has been torn wide open. Thousands of Hezbollah operatives in Lebanon found themselves on the wrong side of a deadly technological twist, as pagers—devices largely considered relics of the past—erupted in a series of devastating explosions. Within just a few hours, these seemingly innocuous gadgets turned into instruments of retribution.
