Exploding pagers 'detonated by push of single button' in suspected Israeli attack

HEZBOLLAH terrorists and the Iranian ambassador are among thousands injured after "brand new" pagers exploded across Lebanon, killing at least nine people.

The booby-trapped devices blew up simultaneously across the Middle Eastern country yesterday afternoon wreaking havoc.

At about 3:30pm local time, the pagers started heating up and then exploding in people's hands or pockets - leaving blood-splattered scenes.

Lebanon's Information Minister pinned the shock James Bond-style sabotage on "Israeli aggression".

The pagers were said to be a "new brand" which Hezbollah's fighters had not used before.

Hezbollah reportedly acquired the pagers after the group's leadership ordered members to stop using phones.

Its interesting how when Hamas invaded, media reported that 1400 civilians were murdered ( even though arpund 400 victims were soldiers and armed guards), and now they report 2800 Hezbollah fighters injured, even though its obvious that this kind of attack couldnt have discriminated between civilians and army.
