Hezbollah Commanders Eliminated in Beirut Strike Were Plotting October 7-Style Invasion of Israel
2024-09-23
[LI] The commanders of Hezbollah’s Radwan Forces, who were eliminated in Friday’s Israeli airstrike, planned an October 7-style invasion of Israel in response to the recent pager blasts, Arab and Israeli media reports indicate.

Senior Hezbollah terrorist Ibrahim Aqil and other top commanders of the Radwan Force had gathered to discuss their so-called "Plan to Conquer the Galilee" when four Israeli missiles hit their underground hideout below a parking lot in central Beirut.

Aqil, the mastermind of the 1983 Marine Barracks bombing, and 20 other Hezbollah commanders were killed in the precisely targeted Israeli airstrike, eliminating the entire command structure of the Iranian-trained Radwan Force.

Always helpful to put a face with a name.

#5  Tens of thousands is a start — we’ve been getting reports of 200,000 for years. On the other hand, it was around q decade ago that Bibi went to the UN with maps of where Hezbollah had weapons stashes in schools, mosques, and private homes. So it’s just a matter of working the map.

I’ve been waiting a long time for this — the secondaries are going to be epic.

#3  Now the paranoia begins. Hezbollah has been deeply penetrated by Israeli intelligence.

Anyone who was not injured last week is a suspect. "Ahmed, why was your pager in a bucket of water when it exploded?"

Hezbollah leadership is paralyzed and old feuds and resentments will be settled with accusations of betrayal. Blood will flow.

Well played, Israel, well played.
