Imagine attacking someone and when they retaliate you play the victim

World: Israel, stop dropping bombs!
Israel: Say no more.

[mrAZcardinal]

Are we supposed to feel sorry for terrorists now?

[madelainepetrin]

What would we do without these experts!

[emilycoley]

Militant group? They can't even say terrorists.

[shannonsnyder]

Gee terrorists don't like being targets of terrorist attacks . Who would have thought??

You've got to be pretty slow to be holding handheld devices the day AFTER these devices exploded yesterday.

IDF playing chess, the Iranians and their ilk are playing marbles….

[mrchapman]

Of course the US wasn't told They would have warned Hezbollah

[captainsonny]

Well, i guess the people that witnessed these explosions now know who is a gang member and who is not

[CEOkiller]

We called hezbolah for comment, but they are not taking any calls…

When Israel said lebanon will be returned to stone age they were not joking. no more use of pager, walkie-talkie, phoned, tv, fridge etc. 😅😅😅

[CICERO-dy]

New slogan ...from the river too the sea ...you blew the balls off me

This man said there was a risk of collateral damage. Is this risk higher than dropping bombs? Or taking a city building by building? It seems to me to be a highly targeted attack designed to take out combatants.

Legend has it that the walking talkies beeped "Akbar Allah, " before going off.

[Docsjeff]

It keeps the innocent safe.Only Hezzies have them.

[nopandakit]

26 deaths warrants coverage, but more than a hundred innocents being held hostage gets nothing from the press? Your standards are sickening.
