The Israeli government committed mass terrorism on Lebanon yesterday. They were not intimidated by whatever the US — their largest weapons supplier — said in response. Politicians & the media meanwhile whitewashed, even glorified it.
So they went ahead and did it again today.
Israel’s pager attack in Lebanon detonated thousands of handheld devices across of a slew of public spaces, seriously injuring and killing innocent civilians.
This attack clearly and unequivocally violates international humanitarian law and undermines US efforts to prevent a wider conflict.
Congress needs a full accounting of the attack, including an answer from the State Department as to whether any US assistance went into the development or deployment of this technology.
