Targeted Killings

 Targeted Killings
Who else is being targeted?

My ambivalence over yesterday's reports of exploding pagers in Lebanon:

Generally speaking, it's appropriate to rejoice when the wicked perish [1]. However, nowadays, we must exercise caution before reacting to any news that the state-sponsored media reports [2].

First and foremost, how can we know definitively that this event even happened, or that it happened as reported?

Secondly, the democidal regime that was presumably behind the targeted killings is targeting its own population as much as it's targeting so-called terrorists, so I wonder whether we should ever celebrate anything that the regime takes credit for, even if it seems like something objectively good.

Moreover, are these high-tech targeted killings meant to give us a false sense of security and to tolerate living under the threat of incessant missile attacks? Similar to their alleged Iron Dome technology?

Most importantly, the fact that the the targeted killings were allegedly carried out by means of pagers or communication devices should give us all pause.

We all know that these devices subject us to 24/7 surveillance, but are we being groomed to accept the fact that the government can execute undesirables by means of these very devices? And can you know with certainty that you and I won't be deemed "undesirables" at some point if we haven't been already?

And if a bunch of pagers in Lebanon were weaponized and detonated, can it be that our very own handheld devices have been similarly weaponized? Or that the next generation of handheld devices will be weaponized?

And can it be that the smartphone in your hand and next to your ear is already a lethal weapon of the ruling class that effectively exposes you to dangerous frequencies and radiation, illness, mind control, and indoctrination?

Are these targeted killings merely a smokescreen to distract us from the fact that it its we who are being targeted? Not just by Hamas and Hezbollah, but by the regime who claims to be protecting us from them?

Alas, it appears that's the case.

May Hashem save us from their vile plans.

Just as some low-level terrorists perished yesterday, may the true villains of out times — the sociopathic ruling class and its democidal regimes everywhere — likewise perish speedily in our days.

"So too may all Your enemies perish, Hashem." [3]
