Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on Wednesday condemned Israel over a series of explosions across Lebanon involving pagers that targeted members of militant group Hezbollah.

Ocasio-Cortez, a vocal critic of Israel’s government amid its broader war in Gaza, weighed in following reports that Israel’s intelligence and military arms were behind Tuesday’s pager attack that killed a dozen people and injured several thousand.

“This attack clearly and unequivocally violates international humanitarian law and undermines US efforts to prevent a wider conflict,” the New York Democrat wrote on social media platform X.

“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,” she added.

Amir has a video that includes clips from the terrorists themselves filming their atrocities.

She should watch that, too.

“””Hey, AOC, isn’t that your cell phone ringing? Better get that.”””


I was going to write something like that.

Your comment is better than what I was thinking about writing.

I say it was Hezbollah members self-transitioning, and blaming it on Israel.

I’m trying to find the source, but I read this morning there was speculation that Hezbollah rigged their own pagers. The idea was if any pager fell into Israeli hands, THEY could remotely destroy it.

The speculation went further to suggest Israel hacked the pager network and made them all go boom.

Considering the logistics of knowing about the order of pagers, when they shipped, intercepting them, modifying them, getting them factory repacked, and having Hezbollah accept and distribute them without question, Hezbollah booby trapping their own pagers almost makes sense.
