Blatant war criminality aside, this doesn’t even work. They’ve been doing this in Gaza for almost a year and all it has done is radicalise people and send Hamas recruitment numbers up.

Lebanon is not going to any different.

killing you and your whole family but calling it clean cause I didn’t destroy a whole city block 😊

You can't give me an example of a whole family being taken out by this attack because it does not exist. I watched the videos of these explosions. Dude standing right next to the Hezbollah operative was completely unharmed and walked away. I said the attack was clean because the attack was clean. Anyone holding a Hezbollah pager or walkie talkie was injured. The way not to be injured was to not in posession of a Hezbollah pager. Some 4500 devices and Hezbollah operatives injured with a few dozen of those dead and among that count there were 3 non-operatives including one daughter of an operative (which is tragic that her father chose to put her life in danger by painting a target on his head as a member of a genocidal terrorist organization actively launching thousands of bombs at your stronger neighbor killing children playing soccer and displacing hundreds of thousands from their homes)

Which makes this the most targeted operation of this size I can think of. In modern war the usual civilian to militant casualty ratio is 9:1. This was 1:1500. This is war. There exists no way anybody has conceived of to attack the folks trying to kill you and involve as few civilians as this attack. This is as close to a literal targeted thanos snap as it gets.

Here is the real issue: Nothing Israel does to defend its civilians will ever meet your standards, because what you actually want is for Israeli civilians and children to just roll over and be genocided as is Nasrallah's unequivocally stated wish (specifically he has said he wants all the world's Jews to move to Israel so that he can genocide them more easily).

But Israel will not roll over and die, so fucking deal with it and stop being childish. Hezbollah has been bombing Israel indiscriminately for decades and nonstop for the past year and hundreds of thousands of civilians are displaced. A soccer field of playing Druze children was bombed killing a dozen of them.

Now thousands of those responsible for these genocidal actione have had their hands and/or dicks blown off over 2 days.

Such is war.

The usual way to go about this sort of thing is to bomb a city block, but it seems you're upset they came up with a way to harm 1500 enemy militants to one civilian instead of the 1:1 ratio they have going in Gaza (which is still far better than the 9:1 average of modern wars in cases where the bad guys AREN'T using their civilians as human shields en masse)

There is no war where 0 civilians are harmed, there never has been and never will be, but you're giving shit to the folks that just invented a new never before done way to hurt people you want and not the people you don't want to hurt, and defending the folks just straight up intentionally carpet bombing Israel's civilian regions making it's northern region uninhabitable and killing kids playing soccer.

And you are just making shit up to do it. Again, you cannot name for me 1 family that perished. Just one child who was too close to Daddy's pager that he uses to conduct large-scale war crimes in the name of genociding the Yahud, from the River To the Sea.

Which makes me strongly believe that civilian life is not your concern. Your concern is Israel doing anything at all to fight back against a terrorist group who wants to slaughter all of Israel's civilians. Which is shameful and pathetic bigotry. You can be better than that.

3000 people were injured in Lebanon today, and 9 martyred. In one second they lost their eyes and limbs when Israel decided to hack into their "pagers / beepers" and blow them up.

This is terrorism

Introducing PAGERS: a single page TTRPG book club!

There's an art to the single page TTRPG that can often go unseen. How do you fit an engaging experience into just 1 mere page? How do you explain potentially complex mechanics with a constraint like this? What of layout, art, and graphic design?

With so many amazing single-page TTRPGs out there, your potential favorites may be waiting around hidden corners. From classic dungeon crawlers, one-size-fits-all mini-systems, and experimental single-mechanic games, to thoughtful journaling games, story games, and experimental art games— there's so much to love!

The goal of PAGERS is to explore and enjoy these wonderful games together, to find new games you may have missed, to be inspired, and to discuss just what makes for an engaging tabletop game.

For now, we're aiming to play a new game once a month, with open nominations and voting to pick each of them! We'll be starting nominations for our first game shortly!

This book club is adults only because it's Just Easier To Manage, so if you're an adult— take a page, and join our discord here!
