  1. There’s definitely cause for concern if you’re an unrelated foreign government. For all we know Israel was only focused on the end game, and hired whoever they needed to in order to get the job done – including someone who didn’t have any stake in the broader conflict, and just wanted a big payday. The same individual could offer up his services again someday to anyone willing to pay, regardless of the intended use. Or just as bad, someone finds him and contacts him, pretending to be Israel coming back to him for round 2. All hypothetical, but this isn’t as black and white as people seem to think.

  2. At the end of the article:

    >Norway’s domestic security agency, known by its acronym PST, earlier told the AP that it was checking whether a Norwegian national had any connection with the company that sold the pagers that exploded in Lebanon.

    >PST stressed that it was not a formal investigation and that there was currently no concrete suspicion against the man.

    You can always count on the people of WorldNews to support terrorism as long as it’s for the side they like.

    If the situation was reversed and a bunch of IDF cellphones exploded in malls across Israel, people would be screaming “*terrorism!”*

  4. This guy won’t be found… well in Europe anyway. This is a mossad agent isn’t it? ‘Someone’ modified a parts shipment to a pager and handheld radio supplier in another country that happens to sell to the main buyer for Hezbollah?

    This is some spy shit extraordinaire. That guy hasn’t been seen since the allegations were directed to his company because spies have gtfo plans and he’s quite good it seems. If this were a movie it wouldn’t be believable but now I want them to make a movie of how it played out.

    Dude even if he was involved the guy helped undermine a terrorist group. Guy should be given a medal not placed on a wanted list 

  6. Israel should issue “supporting terrorism” arrest warrants for anyone connected with the prosecution.
