Hezballah Rocked by More Explosions, As Israel Begins Detonating Solar Power Controllers, Smart Watches, Home Appliances, and Electronic Keypad Door Locks in Houses Owned by Hezballah Terrorists

"Some beepers did some things." -- Sponge

So you like terror bombing, huh?

Let's see how you feel about it when your household devices are exploding in your face, Hezballah.

morexplosions.jpg.jpeg

Hezballah is so angry about these "indiscriminate bombings of innocent civilians" -- actually targeted bombings of Hezballah illegal combatant terrorists -- that they showed their opposition to indiscriminate bombing of civilians by launching wave after wave of rocket attacks against civilians in Israeli towns and cities.

It's terrible when civilians die in war, they cried, as they paraglided into youth "peace" rave to machine-gun civilians and rape young girls to death.


Per a French outlet, the casualty count in just this second wave is up to 14 dead, 250+ wounded.


Woods didn't provide context but I assume this is the damage from one of the comms bombs:

Probably beside the point. They're sowing panic among Hezbollah commanders. It's probably working.

Blow up their main comms tool. Make them purge and fall back.

64 If the stuff about other and varied items being involved - solar panels, etc. - then this is almost certainly a multi-facet operation.

Pagers and radios indicate a physical operation. Interdict the shipment, modify it, then release it (or prepare a parallel shipment and switch them en route after cloning if needed, etc.). Fixed infrastructure like solar panels, if they are actually involved, probably are malware-based so it can be targeted (exploit a design vulnerability to make it torch itself off).

Have they?

Israel has been fighting Hamas and keeping Hezbollah contained. A big question has been, "if Hezbollah is going to truly open a second front in earnest, when will it happen?"

The Iranian action in Lebanon and Syria has been pointing to "yes" as the answer to the first question.

These Israeli actions lead me to believe that "soon" was the answer to the second.

IoT is, generally, a security and vulnerability nightmare. It's one of the reasons I have none of that stuff in my house.

But I *suspect* that this could be a case of just seeing Jews under every bed. If anything goes wrong for someone with Hezbollah, they're probably fairly inclined to assume that Israel did it. A solar battery blows up or a camera bursts into flames. Why? Was it random bad luck? That happens all the time.

Or it was Israel. It had to be Israel. Israelis are electronic supermen who can do anything they want with impunity.

It's a psychological nightmare. It doesn't matter if Israel is doing it or not at this point.

A gun a civilian object, unless it's in the hands of a soldier or owned by a military.
A computer is a civilian object, unless it's being used by a soldier or owned by a military.
A knife is a civilian object, unless it's being wielded by a soldier or owned by a military.
A truck is a civilian object, unless it's being driven by a soldier or owned by a military.
A ball bearing is a civilian object, unless it's being used to produce other civilian objects that are only civilian objects so long as they're not in the hands of a soldier or military.
A stick of a dynamite is a civilian object, unless its used by a soldier or deployed by a military.
A chunk of uranium is a "civilian object" unless it's in an atomic bomb (since all atomic bombs are owned by militaries).

Everything is a "civilian object." The object is neither good nor bad, neither civilian nor military. It's all in how it's used.

She and her Handlers must have figured out she'll have difficulty conning people she's just a middle-class girl who's One With The People, if she wears big strings of pearls at a debate, a TV interview, or a stump speech to the Sistahs and to Latinx women.

She's replaced them in many outfits with scarves, which also help hide her neck bags and wrinkles. Kammie didn't plan ahead - she's an idiot all the way - by getting her neck skin tightened months and months ago. Just in case.

382 I find this whole deal really distasteful. Now, before you jump on me - I have always been pretty hardcore about supporting Israel's right to respond to barbarism.

Reprisals for misbehavior against both signatories and non-signatories of various conventions is a thing; for example, if Hezbollah killed a hundred people in indiscriminate rocket attacks or bus bombings or what have you, the Israelis can, legitimately, say you know what, fuck you guys, we're responding in kind and deleting this village and just JDAM it. That is a severe but deliberate and *clearly lawful* response. It is the step short of just genociding them right back.

Blowing up a bunch of distributed equipment on this scale lacks a required degree of understanding who (even in the collective sense) you are attacking, but in a way that's even worse than if they'd responded with dumb rocket attacks vs a JDAM/etc: because people don't want to wonder if their router or phone or sprinkler timer is UXO.

In short, this is kinda fucking retarded, casts doubt on their judgment, and is going to sour some degree of public opinion (not that they're required to give a shit, but it won't help)

There may be an antisemitic thought lurking that the Jews are tricking poor Christians into supporting them.

But I also disagree about the final point. Israel probably very much *does* want them all worried about every timer and toaster in the house. Keep them disorganized and panicked and struggling to communicate because *nothing* can be trusted. Sowing chaos among the enemy is a tactic as old as war.

443 Milwaukee tools make drills with bluetooth. For fuckingwhat??

Why would anyone want to pick up their phone, load an app, and then use their drill?
Posted by: Soothsayer: at September 18, 2024 04:19 PM (2y6mw)
++++
Two reasons. One is real and the other is a "because we can" kind of thing.

1. Modern tools can have pretty wild settings and lots of detail. An app makes it easier, so why not. The bluetooth module is in there anyway because

2. it makes fleet management far, far easier. A contractor can know how many tools are on site, where they are, who they were issued to, their condition, etc. Large sites with lots of tools are easier to manage. The apps and settings are a bonus.

444 The modern descendants are Z-Wave and Zigbee. I haven't decided which I'll do yet. Both can be built into truly offline systems. Some of the convenience (remote control) goes away, but the systems are not on the internet. Local (physically nearby) exploits are probably still possible, so I still wouldn't use it for door locks or access functions.

The International Brotherhood of Teamsters said Wednesday it won't endorse any candidate in the 2024 presidential election, opting against throwing the union's support behind either Vice President Kamala Harris or former President Donald Trump.

The move is a blow to Harris, who has who touted her union backing on the campaign trail. It marks the first time that Teamsters has skipped an endorsement in a presidential election since 1996.

First, Arabs aren't big on using the left hand, as Islam says to wipe with it. It's an insult to be offered a left hand in greeting. Yet the left side of the toilet, if you're sitting on it, is blown to bits. That would indicate the sitter had their device in the left pocket. With their pants pulled up. Seems fishy to me that there's no visible sign of a human being there when it happened.

They know where they were but not who was present to any reasonable degree. I can't imagine a professional soldier cooked this up unless they were shitfaced at the time.

Again, compare to a textbook lawful reprisal, which in practice is rare: "Hey you see this village? Fuck it and everyone in it. We can do this all day, ball is in your court". vs, "Welp we're going to blow up, uh, honestly who the fuck knows who, with bonus points for piddly explosions more likely to maim than actually take care of business"

540 Speaking of Iranian operatives.....
==================

State Department officials failed to follow standard procedures when suspending the security clearance of Iran special envoy Rob Malley, leading to “significant confusion” about what work he could do, an investigation has found.

Malley may have, for example, participated in a conference call before he was aware his clearance had been suspended, and he may have had access to sensitive emails.

The report also could heighten Republican criticism of the State Department given how many in the GOP view Malley as too friendly to Iran’s Islamist regime.

Ukraine and the UK drone'd up a Skidoo type jet ski and used it to try and blow up a bridge into Crimea. Most of the initial drones used for combat recon early on for Ukraine were off the shelf commercial ones, run by normal phones and tablets. Specialized ones came later. The Russians took a town a few months back by zipping into town on motorbikes right out of showrooms and getting in and in place before arty or drones could get there and interfere.

Lots of the night vision equipment in use on both sides is commercial bought on the market. The Japanese used bicyles to get some added speed on backwoods trails in WWII invasion of Malaya.

Westphalian based rules of war only worked when the West had overwhelming power to enforce them. Now it doesn't and we see reversion to older cultural norms among non Western types about the nature of warfare.

I was at Siemens when XP was about to be out of support. Their "plan" was to talk to Microsoft to negotiate an extended support plan. They didn't know how much that would cost, and didn't care.

He is an old senile man who spent his whole life seeking approval, and when he walked into a firehall he got ignored, and Trump got cheered like he just won the Superbowl. Putting the hat on was the only way he could get a positive response, and he is so pathetic he kept it on.

Are we talking about flight controller computers? If so, they use F Prime, cFE, HeliCat, and others. For their super-computers, it's mostly Linux. But NASA is a huge org, and plenty of their engineers and other groups use Windows OS. Laptops on the ISS are mostly Windows.

I actually became more conservative in college. Part of it was realizing that I'd actually held some conservative beliefs my whole life. And then I saw the lunacy of campus liberalism at the U. of Michigan. Finally, Reagan's setting the stage for the downfall of the Soviet Union (so that I could finally go to Russia someday), was the final nail in the coffin of whatever liberlism I had once espoused.

602 Neither the pager nor radio bombs were indiscriminate. They were tightly targeted. Targeted more precisely than any precision-guided bomb. The environment was highly variable, but the devices were also very small with an extremely limited operational sphere. They didn't even manage kill most of their own targets.

Collateral damage appears to be minimal. It also looks to me like icing the entire Hezbollah command structure probably wasn't even the goal. Chaos, confusion, distrust and mapping were probably the primary goals. If so, then goals achieved - with very little collateral damage.

When the Arabs attack Israel, "indiscriminate" is the best-case scenario. These attacks were not controlled top-down, but they were not indiscriminate or widespread in the sense of non-targeting.

619 513 I have my doubts about the toilet pic for a couple of reasons.
First, Arabs aren't big on using the left hand, as Islam says to wipe with it. It's an insult to be offered a left hand in greeting. Yet the left side of the toilet, if you're sitting on it, is blown to bits. That would indicate the sitter had their device in the left pocket. With their pants pulled up. Seems fishy to me that there's no visible sign of a human being there when it happened.


when i was going to college, we had a bunch of iranian foreign exchange students who were actually palestinians from kuwait. when it started to get wet during the fall, you'd start to see mudddy shoeprints on the toilet seats; they would hop up and squat on the seat to do their business.

It wasn't a *fear* it was an absolute certainty. All armies in WWII had the gas in reserve.

A ship full of gas shells blew up in a harbor in Italy as it was being stored/unloaded. Quite a few casualties, not much talked about.

And the worst thing about the free use of gas in WWII is that all that is that it wasn't any more effective than regular shelling in inflicting casualties and taking positions once everyone had countermeasures. One MG team in an area the gas isn't blown to ruins your attack even if the enemy doesn't have countermeasures.

Hadn't heard that, but again the rules were a lot different on the East Front for both sides. But even there neither side used gas in combat much for reasons but the base reason is that it just doesn't work very well.

636 This is Israel with the gloves fully off.

Frankly, terrorists win because we care more about not hurting innocents then they do. Hezbollah has never stopped to think what would happen if Israel stopped giving a shit about civilian deaths and played the game exactly like they have been playing it.

My guess, out of 20,000 Hezbollah fighters, about 20% have been injured, crippled or killed. Their communications system is back at pre-radio days. And the war hasn't even started yet.

Posted by: El Mariachi at September 18, 2024 05:49 PM (mvURQ)

637 This attack puts some serious fucking FEAR in Hezbollah and Iran. They have to wonder, what's next? What else has Israel done? And it doesn't target random people, it goes right at the leadership (which is an Israeli vow - ignore the soldiers, kill the generals).

I suspect Hezbollah and Iran were gearing up for some sort of attack. This is the ultimate spoiler attack - If I were them, I'd be stuck inspecting EVERYTHING. Not just in the military, in the homes as well. That takes time and manpower. New systems have to be developed.
