A few bean burritos from Taco Bell and you get a similar result.

Mossad: "Hello, Taco Bell? Yes I'd like to order 2,000 bean burritos and have them delivered via door dash to the following people. M'Balz Es-Gon, Hous Bin Pharteen, I-Zheet M'Drurz, Mustaf Bom In-Pokit, Iam Phukd, and Ablo M'Diq-of"

Israel is offering free replacements of the defective pagers and walkie talkies to the survivors.

I was about to make an off-handed remark about the pager and phone bombs, but was stumped about how to word it. After this, there will be even less of a chance for Israel and Hezbollah to shake hands or actually sign a peace agreement.

<sigh>

EDITE to add emphasis.

There was never any chance of peace between the two unfortunately. I don’t mourn the loss of the lives of terrorists but I do have compassion for all the innocent civilians on both sides that have lost their lives.

Reports in Lebanon say that at least 70 targets were struck simultaneously. Lebanese security sources tell Reuters that the strikes were some of the 'most intense bombing since the start of the war.'

Britain calls for immediate ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon's Hezbollah

Diplomatic solution in Middle East 'urgent," White House says

https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/article-820968

A diplomatic solution in the Middle East is achievable and is urgent, the White House said on Thursday.

The White House believes a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas would "lower the temperature" in the region, spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre said.

Senior US officials think Gaza ceasefire unlikely by end of Biden’s term — report

‘No deal is imminent. I’m not sure it ever gets done,’ administration official tells WSJ



Multiple senior US officials have reportedly acknowledged that a ceasefire and hostage release deal between Israel and Hamas is unlikely before the end of President Joe Biden’s term in office.

“No deal is imminent. I’m not sure it ever gets done,” says one of the US officials, speaking to the Wall Street Journal on condition of anonymity.

White House National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby acknowledged Wednesday that there has not been progress made in hostage talks over the past week. Nonetheless, Biden officials continue to stress in public and private that they will continue working to secure a deal.

The officials speaking to the Wall Street Journal say that one of the biggest obstacles has been the ratio of Palestinian security prisoners Israel must release in exchange for each hostage. The US has said publicly that Hamas has raised the number of prisoners it had originally asked for, even after executing six hostages earlier this month.

More broadly, WSJ reports that Hamas has made demands and then refuses to say “yes” to a deal after Israel accepts them.

The second major obstacle to a hostage deal cited by the US officials is the tensions between Israel and Hezbollah, which appear to be reaching a boiling point this week with the back-to-back mass detonations of Hezbollah’s communication devices, which have injured thousands of terror operatives. Those blasts were followed of airstrikes carried out by the IDF on Thursday against over 100 Hezbollah rocket projectile launchers in Lebanon that the army said were primed for a retaliatory strike.

The US officials from the White House, State Department and Pentagon tell the Journal that the possibility of a full-blown war between Israel and Hezbollah complicates diplomacy between Israel and Hamas.

Washington has long argued that the surest way to restore calm along the Blue Line is by securing a ceasefire in Gaza, and Hezbollah has asserted that it would halt its near-daily attacks against Israel if the fighting in the coastal enclave ends.

Well Mars, that's damn fine creative. If I go to bed too early I won't be able to stop laughing. For the Win.

No shit, did Israel sound like they were ordering a pizza?

Decades of being attacked, people killed, multiple peace agreements, giving up land, and the thanks is to continue killing people and tossing rockets at Israel, what do people expect of them, just to back off again, and again, and again.

Doing the same thing over and over, insanity.

The only thing Hamas and Hezbollah understand is brute force.

Israel Kills Ibrahim Aqil, Hezbollah Terrorist Wanted for 1983 U.S. Marines Barracks Bombing
Israel killed Ibrahim Aqil, a senior Hezbollah terrorist partly responsible for the 1983 bombing of a U.S. Marines barracks in Beirut, Lebanon, on Friday as he gathered underground with fellow terrorists in southern Beirut.

In a statement, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said:

Today (Friday), September 20, 2024, IAF aircraft conducted a targeted, intelligence-based strike in the area of Beirut, and eliminated Ibrahim Aqil, the Head of Hezbollah’s Operations Unit and the Commander of Hezbollah’s elite Radwan Forces, who was also in charge of Hezbollah’s “Conquer the Galilee” attack plan.

During the strike, senior operatives in Hezbollah’s Operations Staff and commanders from the Radwan Unit were eliminated alongside Aqil. Ibrahim Aqil and the Radwan commanders who were eliminated today were planning Hezbollah’s “Conquer the Galilee” attack plan, in which Hezbollah intended to infiltrate Israeli communities and murder innocent civilians.

Aqil’s began his involvement with Hezbollah in the 1980’s, as an operative in its ‘Islamic Jihad Organization’ terror cell, which is responsible for Hezbollah’s terror attacks outside of Lebanon, and was part of many of Hezbollah’s terror attacks in multiple countries against innocent civilians.

Since 2004, he has served as the Head of Hezbollah’s Operations Unit, in which he was responsible for Hezbollah’s bombing attacks, anti-tank missile attacks, air defense, and other military fields.

Additionally, he operated as Commander of the Radwan Forces, the elite unit of the Hezbollah terrorist organization, whose main goal is to conquer the communities of the Galilee and kill innocent civilians and IDF soldiers.

Ibrahim Aqil directed and took part in many terror attacks against innocent Israeli civilians and IDF soldiers.

Aqil was responsible for the anti-tank missile attack toward the Avivim post in 2019 in northern Israel, the terror attack at the Megiddo Junction in 2023, and the infiltration attempts of Hezbollah terrorists into Israeli territory to murder and kill civilians and IDF soldiers during the “Swords of Iron” War.

Aqil directed the terror attack on the U.S. Embassy in Beirut in 1983. He was a wanted suspect in the United States.

The IDF will continue to act to degrade Hezbollah’s capabilities and will continue to operate in all arenas to protect the civilians of the State of Israel.
