THE DESABILIZATION OF LEBANON, ISRAEL'S NEW OBJECTIVE

The government of Benjamin Netanyahu is showing its interest in destabilizing Lebanon, making use of its technological advances in communication, hitting Hezbollah and serving as a warning to Beirut to limit its support for this radical group, despite the fact that it is a legal political party in the Lebanese Parliament.

After the explosion of the pagers, walkie-talkies and solar energy equipment of the Lebanese movement, branded as terrorist in Western countries, have exploded, with a balance of another 20 dead and 450 wounded, according to health sources in the country of the cedars. The responsibility of Israel in these attacks is borne by Beirut and Hezbollah jointly.

In the Middle East region, only Israel has a technological advance of such importance, which is even superior to that of many Asian and European countries. Probably only China is equal to Israel, or even superior.

This is another war between those who possess the technology and those who suffer from its use by their enemies. Iran is also in no position to compete with Israel, far from it. So we are moving from bombings and the launching of missiles and rockets to an offensive of a very different character, both discreet and effective.

Electronic equipment becomes bombs. You can be listening to a radio and in a moment you will be injured or killed by the explosion of the device. And this is absolutely not a science fiction story.

The explosions in Lebanon are causing mass hysteria among the population, to the greater satisfaction of the aggressor country. The war has ceased to be one and has evolved into several, from information to the use of very advanced technologies, which are not easy to acquire. The Japanese company that makes the pagers used in Lebanon has indicated that it stopped selling them to anyone a long time ago.

But Hezbollah had thousands of them in its possession; Israel knew this and is believed to have long since begun working on controlling these devices in order to transform them into remote-controlled explosives. This is a major security problem that concerns both Western and Middle Eastern countries.
