They'll find a way to make two cups and a string explode, the way this is going.

This is some serious Tom Clancy level sabotage. Phones and pagers with explosives inside? Straight up terrorism jfc.

Blindly detonating hundreds or thousands of devices remotely is hardly targeted. There was no way to know who would be on the receiving end in that moment

If you don't know where your explosive device is or who is carrying it at time of detonation, it is not a targeted attack.

It's more precise than dropping a thousand pound bomb on a refugee camp to take out 1 hamas guy at the very least. Also we're in NCD.

I really can't support making devices that explode and hurt people, that sucks. But man if I was behind that operation I would feel like I was in mission impossible, there's something so cool about the coordination of everything involved in an attack like this. This kind of reminds me of Stuxnet.

I'm glad people can appreciate the achievement, even if they don't support their actions.

This is boring and facile Holocaust comparison/fantasizing. Reel it in or move on. First warning.
